Mandy, Marion and I had a great early evening pub collection for Marie Curie, last Saturday 2 June raising a fantastic £830.
We started at the West End of Edinburgh in Williams Street, moved along Rose Street to the East End and then head back to the car long Princess Street. A very kind gentleman stopped Mandy whilst we were walking along Princess Street and deposited £20 in her bucket.
Once back to the car, we headed down to the Grassmarket. It was so busy down there with Stag and Hen do's but I really don't think the younger generation "get" what Marie Curie is all about. There was a lot of "no change" and shaking of heads when we went near.
That said, we did collect a wonderful sum. Mandy and Marion made quite a bit due to having their daffodil hats on and getting "paid" for photographs. I chose the vain route as I had my extensions in so decided to go without my daffodil hat - it needs washed anyway ;O)
Mandy and I are both extremely near our totals now. Looks like we are going to smash the totals this year which is fabulous!!!!
