Nigel, One good turn deserves another.

Nigel and Fran have donated a week's stay for 4 people at Four Seasons Retreat (www.fourseaonsretreat.co.uk) in Momchilovtsi, just 12km from Pamporovo, to be auctioned by John Dixon (details on the Fund Raising page of the orphanage website) in aid of the heating fund.

Thanks N - Andie x

I tried over the phone for extra baggage allowance from thomsons but got no where, so I took a trip to Doncaster airport (lucky for me not too far away) and spoke to staff there from thomson fly and they gave me 10 kg extra for the orphanage, I printed stuff off the website and took my flight tickets with me, they were realy good, hope this helps Very Happy Very Happy

re: Orphanage fundraising

Good luck Dona, it will all be so worth your time and effort, the children are lovely and are so happy with all the things people are giving, Amanda is a truly wonderful person, it was so nice to meet her, she is a very special person in the childrens lives, I wish I was going back in the near future.

re: Orphanage fundraising

Thansk so much Carole I am sure you are very busy. Do you want the details - I need a letter on headed paper authorising me D Vickers to bring out donations on flight no TOM 5703 on the 16th Feb from Gatwick to Plovdiv. Is that doable? Plus any extra info which might make them feel ashamed not to lol.
