| Good morning all Thank you Ashley for suggesting that I post the information to all viewers. I will be travelling to the UK from December 7th to collect Xmas presents, clothing, toys etc. for the children of the Children's Homes of Vidin and Novo Selo, the Kindergarten of Vruv and for the children of families in poverty in Novo Selo. All in all about 150 presents. I wil also be collecting equipment for the Children's HOme of Vidin and the Chef and Restaurant School. Having driven through Romania, Hungary, Austria, Germany, Belgium and France I expect to be in Dover on Thursday morning of the 9th. My route is as follows: Mid Kent College mid morning North Hertfordshire College in the afternoon to collect xmas presents Peterborough in the evening to collect Xmas presents and unwanted items - Beni need to sort out a venue to meet 10th December Rotherham and to collect goods from Russum's of Rotherham Scunthorpe in the afternoon and the weekend with my dad Monday 13th December Grimsby (Grimsby Instute FE/HE) to collect Xmas presents, gifts and calendars from the college. The calendars are decorated with pictures drawn by the children in the Children's Home here in Novo Selo. In the afternoon to Norwich and City College Norwich to collect equipment, Xmas presents, clothing and computers Tuesday 14th December Not fully finalised as yet but I believe I will be heading for Reading then to South London and then on to Dover to begin the journey home. Apart from the presents that have been promised I am also collecting unwanted 'white goods', clothing, footware, toys, cycles, games, sports equipment, shoes. The local doctor has asked me to source clothing for all ages. The Vidin Children's Home is seeking clothing but in particular nappies for children from the age of 0 years to 7. I cannot deviate from the route as I don't have sufficient funds to go all over the place. If anyone wishes to donate use one of the above pick up points I will be travelling in Ivy our Mercedes Atego. If you visit [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] hopefully David our web site organiser will have put up the route with destinations Thank you whalesmc |

| Hello Oddy. No problem, tins and other items will go to good homes. There are a number of families in poverty as well. There are some terrible stories of people who are really struggling. We work with the local social care office, the doctor and the Mayor to identify needy families. Thank you for all your support and help, once more. Mick |
