| Good morning all You are doing a fantastic job with your collection. The children in the Vidin children's home are aged 0 to 7 years of age. I think the boats and blue 4x4 will be to old for them. Please stop at the number of boxes you have reached so far. The lorry will accommodate what you have collected so far but I am conscious of giving too much, exceeding expectations and creating future problems. Regarding the possibility of double booking Xmas presents for children's homes, I need to do some research. There is only one children's home in Novo Selo and it has 41 children, some of which are 18 years of age. I will phone and discuss so we don't double up. We know from experience that the children's home in Novo Selo keeps quiet about multiple donations. Thank you all so much for what you are doing. |

| hello the dinner in Sofia is this coming Sunday. The dinner will be held at the Radisson Blu Hotel. Tickets are available from the hotel at 40 leva each. Butternut squash soup followed by roast turkey and vegetables with apple pie and vanilla sauce to finish. Not bad for under £20 in a 5x hotel. I hope you and your friends can make it. Take care |

| Hello Dinner starts at 7.30pm. Dress code is smart casual. I am not sure how many tickets have been sold. I can say that there are 25 people travelling from our village of Novo Selo near to Vidin. We are expecting somewhere in the region of 70 to 90 people. I hope that helps. |

For the construction of educational and professional centre in addition to its resources, rely on donations. Britons living in the village and Novoselyane organized next Sunday Charity night in Sofia fund raising. In Novo Selo unemployment is nearly 17%, which means that over 230 people live on social assistance. Each year the local Social leaving home boys and girls who remain jobless for long and often cross the law. So many hopes the project gathers the Englishman Mick Cooper, who settled on the banks of the Danube a few years ago. Petya Petkova from transient residence of Novo Selo: - Schoolgirl am in class XII and finish by myself and I find it very difficult to handle. No one to ride ... If this project was launched, for example, you can go and prepare to be able to get a job then ... Nasturtium Petrova - Transitional housing manager of Novo Selo: - This centre it forward with great anticipation. The villagers know Mick as a donor of kindergartens and schools, the pensioners club and the three social institutions and give its full support for the project. He enjoys the confidence and the mayor and regional governor of Vidin. George Stoenelov, Mayor of Novo Selo: - The creation of such a college in the municipality in the north-western part of Bulgaria is a unique case ... And so we will stand firmly behind him ... Mick Cooper, President of NGO " Phoenix inspiration: - Now I live in Novo Selo and want to pass on their skills and experience of young people in the region. Let them create opportunities to travel worldwide and find fulfilment through their work. Mick Cooper has supplied much of the necessary professional equipment. Municipal Building, where it will be the centre for vocational training of cooks and hoteliers, however, needs an overhaul. The fund raising relies on the support of followers and organized charity actions in the UK and Bulgaria. |
