BWB's fundraising

Have not been writing for some time. Have been too busy with a lot of other things, like gardening(never ending story), selling raffle tickets(this is now finished). Have been to the hairdresser, had my hair cut a different way as normal. Had an electrician change the plugs on the walls, these had to be replaced as I could not get the leads out the plugs and they were cracked.

Made enquiries about a parcel, which Alice send on the 31-3-2007 in England and the post office said to ring back over a couple of days. Well the next day the parcel got delivered. Customs had opened it and taken a sort of game out, because it was made of plant material. We can get it back but have to pay for the treatment. According to Alice it is not worth to pay for the treatment, to get the game, so it will be destroyed.

Yesterday I had a fundraising function van the BWB club. It was a day in the woods with jazz. Lots of people came although the rain was threatening to come down.
We had a nice band and the music they made was very good.

The band


At 10am there was damper with syrup and a cup of coffee. The damper was baked the old fashion-way. It tasted beautiful.
There were also raffle tickets for sale and I bought a couple. Let me win a bottle of wine.

The raffle prices are at the back.


At 12 there was lunch. Was helping out in the kitchen and had to put carrots on the plate and then it went to the people.
After everyone had their food, the workers got theirs and then the dish washing had to be done. Luckily there was only the cutlery and the containers. We had used throwaway plates, which are marvelous. It was time to go, the rain was going to come down. It took me an hour to get home.
