Well done Kim Ilsley raising money for sick children

Thank you so much Val and Malcolm it is very very kind of you to give the money from the computer to the charity.  I must admit the event got a lot bigger than I thought it would be , it started out just as me donating my time and money for Zumba and then it grew and grew. Everyone had fun although chaos was all around as normal with over 60 children, 10 party games, hip hop, zumba, gateau galore, bar etc.. but I was amazed at how we all mucked in and made it a cracking night. I personally would like to say A HUGE thank you to all my clients that helped either with selling the tickets, decorating the salle des fetes, running a stand , acting as Santa it really was most humbling everyone pulling together but the icing on the cake was you guys giving the money from the computer.  With that we are way over the target of 2k so voila miracles can happen.

Val says  Really well done Kim and friends, what a superb effort. It is going to be fun giving the money back but it is not simple. Let me explain, we won the star prize of a portable computer in the raffle which was bought from Hyperu and still had its receipt. We can apparently get the money back but only to spend in the store so tomorrow morning Malc and I are going to get a trolley each and then do a " trolley dash" except the speed we go may be less of a dash and end up a " trolley crawl"
We can then donate the money back to Kim for the aid of sick children including Sethi. When we were at Sautou Andrew/ Media Man had given the children there a computer but it needs a French USB key board which we think will be around 50 euros so we will take this out of the money we will return. Gosh, we will have some fun, I bet Malc's trolley will be full of champagne and whisky!
Just a thought - has anyone got a French USB keyboard going spare?
