Cancer Research Event - Nottingham


Still recovering from last night's Cancer Research fund raising dinner at the Council House in Nottingham City Centre.

Because of the Friday evening traffic, only Mick and Ron and Mandy from KLEA vision were there on time, so we entertained the guests as they arrived with a selection of Christmas Carols, then breathed a huge sigh of relief when Chris and Rob walked through the doors about 30minutes later!!

The evening went extremely well, with our friend Nigel dressed up as Santa, and the aforementioned Mandy joining us in a couple of songs as well as acting as our official photographer.



The highlight would have to be the 12 days of Christmas, with the guests jumping up and miming all the actions - six geese a-laying doesn't bear thinking about!!!!

We were priviliged to be able to use the Lord Mayor's parlour as a changing/warm-up room and were treated by the organisers to as much food and drink as we wanted - perhaps it's a good thing we were all driving.

All in all a very good evening and a certain satisfaction in knowing that we were able to support this very worthwhile cause.
