Happy Sunday

Hello everyone

Don't forget to come join us this coming Thursday....that's Oct 27th at the Ferrands Arms from 7.30pm upstairs. There will be many stalls selling different products for ladies to be able to pamper themselves, or to be pampered with!

Bargains galore for yourselves or a loved one, maybe a Christmas present, your nails done, some eyelashes? home-made jewellery, a cup cake or too! but to give a taster of some of the stalls. The stall holders are generously donating to War on Cancer....so the more of you who come take advantage, the more WoC will get donated!!

I hurt my wrist about 3 weeks ago doing something of nothing in the garden. I went to A & E this Saturday as the pain has not eased off that much over the weeks,it turns out it is in fact broken! I am in a temporary cast until next Friday when I will be put into a proper cast. Can't see me been in the cast that long as by next Friday it will be around 4 weeks since I broke it. I however know it takes longer to heal with Osteoporosis, so I guess I will have to wait and see.

Again I hope Ladies you can make it on Thursday, it is a night everyone comes away a winner!

Until next time

Tracy

All well in Cottingley

Hello everyone, I hope your day is going well.

I had the klingon ( cyst ) removed from my eyelid last Wednesday and it's fully healed now :). My sister Caroline drove me and on the way I was saying to her that I probably could have driven myself....after the doc had put the patch on I was grasping at fresh air when trying to get my antibiotic cream! I made it out of the room but partially walked into the door frame going into the waiting room! my sister and the other patients were giggling when she announced that I thought I would be ok driving!!

I hope anybody local wanting something to pamper themselves or wanting a present a little special for a loved one will join War on Cancer upstairs at the Ferrands Arms on Thursday Oct 27th from 7.30pm. There will be some really good stalls and bargains galore to be had. Even little War on Cancer will have a little space...we will be selling the Grand prize raffle tickets, the glow in the dark silicone bands and of course our T-shirts!

There will be hand-made jewellery, fabulous cup cakes, Temple Spa, Divine Accessories, Virgin Vie...to name but a few. Ladies it will be a wonderful chilled atmosphere, come have a look yourself.Remember You are worth it!

There are a few tickets left for the Dec 12th do, if you want to come and have fun, let me know before the tickets all go!

I don't have a date for the blog store to be back up and running, but never fear I will let you know!!

For now

Store closed temporarily.

Hello everyone

I have closed the store temporarily, this is due to excessive running costs. The fees charged by eBay would be fine if it was running as a proper business, however because War on Cancer is fundraising....I cannot in all good conscience pay them.

So shortly we will have a new method for you to be able to purchase from the store. It will still by through Paypal, so everyone knows their money is secure. Hopefully it will be easier and quicker to view all the designs ( I know it will be less work for me, took forever to load onto eBay lol).

When the shop re-opens....not only will Men's and Women's sizes be available, you will be able to order children's sizes too. On multiple orders postage for second and more purchases will be reduced. A few additions will be added to the range too! Keep you eye out for the mouse mats, key-rings and cotton shopping bags! War on Cancer is expanding!!

After the next couple of event details are sorted I am going to be looking into the requirements to make War on Cancer a registered charity. I think ultimately this is where I want to take it and that it will reflect on how serious I am about raising awareness and money for a disease that effects so very many of us, whether it's someone you know or yourself, most of us know of someone.

I must say the Xmas raffle draw tickets are selling well! and if you still want some, just let me know!

The tickets for the first annual fundraising evening are selling well and if you want to come join the fun, don't leave it too long or you may be disappointed!

Ok for now, will keep you updated about the store

A happy Tuesday to you all!

Wow, where to begin, it's been a strange few days that's for sure lol!

First of all the Race evening never happened on Saturday gone, it was such a beautiful day that everyone took off after the rugby match to make the most of what was a hot and glorious day. Afterall it was Oct 1st and we know we aren't likely to see many more days like that this year. It in actual fact ended up been a good thing as what I first thought was a stress headache ( I was really nervous about this first Race event ) turned out not to be. I was repeatedly throwing up, my headache was raging and two of my very good friends took myself and Jeannie home. Thank you Sue giggly geek and the lovely Daz too!

So health wise, it's not been a great few days for me, but on the other hand it's been a smashing few days for War on Cancer! here's what's been happening in the background.

Firstly the Charity car wash is to be delayed until further notice as I have some red tape stuff to sort out ( at least now I know what has to be done to get permission to hold the car wash on council owned property )

Onto the good stuff now :)

The Big Xmas prize raffle has been launched, tickets are on sale and available for anywhere in the UK......so if you live outside of Yorkshire, please don't worry, contact me and I will sort it out..War on Cancer will post prizes anywhere on the mainland. Tickets are only £1.00 each and I wish everyone who buys a ticket the best of luck. This raffle will be drawn on Sat Dec 10th and prizes posted out straight after the weekend!

We have sorted out a limited number ticketed event to take place at the Shipley Club on Sat Dec 10th. There are only 60 tickets available for this event so if you are wanting a chilled fun night with food and a DJ to rock our night away, please get in touch quickly. There will be a luxury Xmas food hamper raffled on the night along with a Tombola. Dave is going to wax for cash!...ouch my friend, but WOC thanks you for this...I will have a pint and a pack of tissues ready for you by the bar!!....fancy ripping a strip off?...get saving your pennies for it!!

On the upcoming events page, you will see there is a show of what will be coming up over the following months, I hope you have a look and maybe you'll see something you fancy doing with us!

There are a million and one details to check out for this one....but one of the big War on Cancer events next year ( aside from actually climbing Mt.Kilimanjaro ) is a possible National Three Peak sponsored challenge! this event will carry an entry fee, details will follow...but if you think you are up to the challenge and will put in the proper amount of training, this could be the event for you. Through all the hard work, sweat and in some cases the tears, undoubtedly this is for many a once in a lifetime challenge that will stay in your heart forever. Whenever an endurance event is completed there are no words to describe that moment you cross the finish line, Me and my fellow Team L'Oreal London Moonwalk gals can attest to that having completed 26.2 miles through the night this May. This really is an event you will never tire of talking about! Please seriously consider it....if nothing else, it will help you get fitter and help loose the extra pounds we all gain over the Xmas period.

I am hoping this event is well received as I would seriously like to consider this for an annual event.

I have added another £16.00 to the total thermometer for some more sponsor money been handed in for the 3 legged. Still some to come in.I will keep adding it and informing you until I have the final figure.

The Ladies only night at the Ferrands will take place on Thurs Oct 27 th as we've mentioned before. War on Cancer will have a tiny space on the night selling the silicone bands, raffle tickets and a small selection of our t-shirts. I will also have a file with the various designs in....anyone who orders on the night will get free postage :)

Joanne and the Ferrands Arms, thank you for organizing the Ladies night,I am very grateful to you!!

Until next time ciao
