Boxes for Bastion!

[shettie]

Just a quicky to let you know what we at my office have been up to... A couple of years ago I did a 50 mile walk from my home to Lincoln in aid of Combat Stress - raising about £1800 (mostly from sponsors in the office).

After that - E-goat started the Pint and Pizza appeal - and I mentioned in passing that it would be a good idea to get some stuff together to send to the DMWS at the hospital in Camp Bastion... We've just dispatched our 3rd consignment and I thought you might like to see what can be done - just by opening ones gob at the right time... the first pic is just a small sample of what was donated - I didn't have enough room on the workshop floor!

The second is of 2 of the ladies that chased everyones a$$ to get the stuff donated! It ended up with 5 boxes that the courier is going to do himself a damage getting on his van!

And to the guy that helps (you know who you are ) thanks mate!

As long as they stay inside the lines and don't dribble on the page - they'll love 'em! And as for the Beegees CD - WTF! FOMz - was that from your own collection??? I never saw THAT!!!

At least now I can get into my workshop!
