"My sister Di, put on a cake time party last Saturday in her home near Salisbury. She had a coffee and cake in the morning and tea and cake in the afternoon. I took all my crafty bits down as well. We had a steady stream of people come through all day and while the total wasn't as big as some of the cake time parties, I think we did quite well. Di took over £150.00 and I took £147.00, so nearly £300.00. She had worked very hard to make it a good day and even had her laptop set up for people to see Alex and Donna's video at home telling them about Harrison which I thought was brilliant, so the people knew exactly what it was all about. I did take a photo, but unfortunately it was only my stall, but I have still attached it for you. I didn't think to take photos of the cake time parties. It was a most enjoyable day."
From an autumnal Salisbury we are jetting off to the balmy warmth of Dubai where Harrison's Auntie Kate hosted an outdoor cake time party with the Dubai Netball League at the Emirates Sevens Stadium on the 7th November . (Please blow some of the warm air this way)Auntie Kate is amazing, she has set herself the challenge of swimming around "The World" islands in Dubai to raise £20,000 for Harrison's Fund. That is a swim of 25km, an ultra marathon which will take at least 10 hours to complete in jelly fish infested waters! She is now ready, fully trained and fit to take on the challenge which will start at dawn on the 21st November, a week today! Please read all about her challenge here . You can also see a map of her route here If you use Twitter please follow her, @swimaroundworld, and give her lots of support before her epic and very scary challenge. Don't forget, you can sponsor her here
More parties and photos tomorrow, don't forget it's not too late to have a party, nobody wants to be a party pooper!!
