A Big Pink Thank-You
Deryn in “Pink” Mode!
I am sure all of us know someone who has been affected by breast cancer. It is nearly 3 years since my lovely sister in law died after a fight against breast cancer. I still miss her so much.
On Saturday it was our turn to do something in memory of those special people we know who have had to deal with this horrible disease.
24 ladies and 3 wonderful men got together at 20 Mistral Road Northwood to raise funds for Breast cancer by way of a Pink Ribbon Breakfast and to celebrate life. Lots of fun was had by all and it was special to hear all the chatter and laughter.
Angela had usually calm ladies fighting each other to grab a parcel when their number was called out! Ann Hudson cleverly guessed there were 97 hot pink Jaffas in the jar, Sue Nicholl won the prize for the lady who had travelled the farthest to get there and Mandi Bates was the youngest guest!
Deryn was stunning in her pink wig and oh so long pink eyelashes. Was that really Deryn under there we all asked?
Our 3 great heroes, Nick, Tony Tizzard and Keith, cooked waffles and did dishes all the while looking stunning in pink aprons and bow ties.
It was great today to send the sum of $500 to the Breast Cancer Foundation. That was a fantastic effort from all our generous Rotary Ladies.
Thanks so much for all the ladies who came and for our special gentleman who looked after us so well.
Well done everyone.
