LONDON MOONWALK - in aid of Breast cancer

[Pauline]

Hi icmeler lovers i have been given kind permission from ICR to put this link on the forum.

I am taking part in the Moonwalk in London 17th May at midnight walking the streets of London with 15,000 other people in a decorated bra to raise money for the Breast Cancer charity Walk the Walk.

Its an honour to walk amongst so many people who have gone through this tragic illness or lost someone very close to them. Please if you wish to make a small donation please visit my secure webpage
www.justgiving.com/paulineduncan1 every penny counts

Thanx a million ( by the way 68 sleeps to my holiday yahoooo)

Hi Pauline Mrs Cockneyjambo here, what a great thing you are doing! I was diagnosed with breast cancer 4 years ago and still having treatment (just tablets now) for 1 more year. I have raised money through various fund raising activities but the best was the ribbon walk last June, i cant do it this year as in Icmeler on the day of the walk but will be doing the 20 mile walk next year Good luck and thank you for raising money for such a good cause

[Pauline]

Hi Mrs Cockneyjambo so sorry to hear your have been a sufferer its been a shock realising just how many people have or had breast cancer, i wish you the very best with whatever you do and achieve with more fundraising, thank you for your good wishes

Hi Pauline, all the best with your walk. I have a couple of friends doing it too.

Thank you for the good wishes we did our 12 miles today and guess what ..it rained the first few miles my trackie bottoms were 4ft longer than when i started and had to stop to ring them out but we got through it with fun on the way.

Two weeks time it will all be over ... 8 weeks training but all worth it in the end

Weyyyyy heyyyyyy i did it! my friend and i completed the moonwalk it was cold but the rain kept away we felt honored to have walked with 17,000 other people all for Walk the Walk Breast Cancer Charity.

Thank you once again for all the support and donations given they were very much appreciated as well as the donations online i have also collected on a sponsor form for those without a PC

I was speechless (yes John ) with the Dirty Dancing show in London it .... was... amazing to say then least especially when they sang
"Time of my life" OMG!!! we all got up and danced (had to be done of course )

But i'm home now not knowing what day it is and after an hour and half sleep i reckon its an early night for me ey?

Take care Pauline x x
