Hey there!
It's now been a few weeks since my abseil and all has appeared quiet on the fundraising front - but in reality things have been simmering just under the surface..
I am proud to announce we have 2 upcoming events for fundraising! I'd love to tell you all that i've been putting my organisational skills to good use but, truth be told, the title of this blog is somewhat of a lie and my amazing friends and family are actually doing most of the organising for me. I'm a little bit ashamed of myself.
So... first on our list; On 11th and 12th November we shall be hitting Galashiels Tesco to do some serious bag packing!!! Now, i know those of you who have ever been shopping with me and witnessed me packing bags will laugh, but surely i can do it properly if i try?! How hard can it be?! Our cousin Donna has kindly been busy arranging all this for us and will be heading the bag-packing team for both days. Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately for the unsuspecting shoppers) I'm working the Friday and Shona is just off nightshifting so will be snoozing, however we shall be joining the troops on the Saturday!!!
Secondly, on 25th November we will be holding a charity Frock Swap in Espionage nightclub in Edinburgh. The idea is for folk to bring along a few items of clothes they no longer want, need or fit(!) and we'll all have a big swap and hopefully all have new outfits for the Christmas party season! We're working on having a raffle and a coin-toss too, and hopefully just a bit of fun with lots of friends. Again, much as i'd love to take credit for organising this, my lovely friends Aoibheann and Dr Coates are largely responsible for not only turning my idea into a reality, but also making it so much better! You girls are stars! :D
So, there you have it. A couple of plans (with plenty more planning still to be done!) for the near future...
Wish us luck (or even better, come along to play at our Frock Swap!) and, as ever, we're always looking for donations, which you can do by going here - http://www.justgiving.com/Clair-and-Shona-McAdam
Muchos Love!
