Hello again, Fast Eddie reporting in with a news update.
Well, my dear readers, don’t think for one moment because I have not posted on here for three weeks that nothing is happening! Far from it - at this moment in time it is all systems go.
Since last we talked on 16 March, our gallant little band of collecting veterans have been into battle three times at Kings Cross, Victoria and Green Park stations, raising another £12,785. This makes a grand total so far this year of £45,809 from collections. Not bad for a tired old bunch of octogenarians, eh? Magnificent effort lads.
There are four more collections to go before our May veterans trip to the Netherlands at the following stations:
London Bridge station, Thursday 9 April 2015
Euston station, Tuesday 14 April 2015
Bank station, Wednesday 22 April 2015
Blackfriars station, Thursday 30 April 2015
Financially we still have a long way to go to before our trip in May. We need to raise a ball park figure of £120,000, so those of you out there who can, please dig deep and encourage others to help us on our way with donations.
