Hello again,
The St George's Day parade at Morley on Sunday was a great success. The weather was fine, the crowds were huge, and interest in our stall was high. Here's an image of the stall with me (Stuart) looking all butch and Roman.
We had many people around the gazebo chatting to us and looking at the arms / armour we'd brought, and my wife Dawn and I were run off our feet for a good 4 hours or so. Unfortunately Kevin was poncing around as St George himself all day, so was unable to help out.
Most importantly we made exactly £150.00 on the day of donations into the bucket. A brilliant start to the collection - people of Morley and surrounding area, we thank you very, very much.
What was particularly nice was the number of kids who came up and threw their pocket money in, generous gestures that all add up in the end. We also handed out quite a few business cards with the blog and Justgiving page addresses on, and many people promised to follow our progress on line - so to you we say a special "Hello!"
All the attention we got made the hard work we've put in so far seem worthwhile, and we're raring to go now - just a couple of months to wait.
As ever, thanks for eading and we'll keep you informed.
All the Best,
Stuart Ivinson and Kevin Morley, Hadrian's Help for Heroes.
