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 :shock: 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 :D

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

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 :roll: Good luck and thank you for raising money for such a good cause :) :)
