Oh yes while I remember I have got a deal with Berghaus at the mo' that any equipment needed for the trek can be purchased through me and it will be half price but with VAT subject to availability that was the best they could do but I still have to clarify it with Caroline Moses PR co ordinator as she said they could not offer sponsorship!! any others interested check out there website and let me know so I can grovel to her more!!

Yvette and Susie..... you best get your begging hats on then!! LOL!! But Susie is right..... get the 1st £3500 first and then make the decision as I know how hard it is to gain that amount of sponsorship and I would only promise Gaynor it in small increments!! :O) |

If i can raise enough my 18 year old will come with us, so that would be an extra boy, but £7,000 is a lot to get, so not sure whether to get him some boots just in case..... |

Anita Thats a good idea, not sure if it would work with some of the people i know....they would just eat all the smarties, lol. However i am going to try it with a few people first and see how it goes. Any more good ideas folks?? Yvette |

Hi Pink peeps... would i be rude to suggest another way of collecting money...only the girl at work is doing a Trek for Cancer Research in Peru next week, and she brought in a big box of Smarties, and asked people to take a tube home and fill it up with 20p ......it takes time but when they are full you get £30 in each.....Just an idea for you all.. Good luck..im really proud of you all. Love Anita xxxxx |

One happy trekker here today, i now have my boots, and £130 in donations with several promises of more to follow. I went to a family party last night and got names and address of people i can send sponsorship forms to...i am SO shameless :-)) Diana do i need to send the sponsorship forms to you when i have collected the money or do i hang on to them and just send you a cheque?? Do you want them sent in certain amounts i.e every time we have £100, or £200 or monthly?? Paul, could i have a poster or two when you are back to full strength please? I have noticed a few of the pinksahara names creeping onto the threads, are we all going that way? if so i will go and change mine. Have a nice weekend everyone. Yvette |
