Thanks to everyone who made the effort to come and for being so generous. Special mentions to Debbie for making the wonderful cakes. To Katia for helping with the raffle. To Alek for filming the day. To Maya for the great discount on the boat. To Shirley, Alex & Carol, Alan Cruicky, All at the Boat Inn Ravda and Nikki & Darren for donating the raffle prizes.

| We'd like to say a big thank you to all who made our weekend (Sue and I) an excellent weekend. The boat trip was superb and well worth the money and more. We'd suggest that when next year's event is organised, book your ticket. Early!
Slaps. |

| 'Good news update As you know Mike & Jerry Organised an afternoon out for 40 people on the ‘The Danube Champagne Cruise’ on 23 July. They raised a massive 1140 lev. After discussions it has now been decided that Mike and Jerry will donate 340 to the Dimcho :0)) and the 800 lev remaining will go to Malek Preslavetz orphanage, which is just outside of Silsitra town, This will buy new urgently needed school uniforms for the 13 children there. What a fantastic idea both orphanage will benefit. Fab!!' Guess this will be another orphanage (no 9) we will be taking on this year. Next year we will only stick to Silistra Orphanage well I say that now |
