Hi Everyone, my 2 mini GB's arrived today and they are gorgeous! Thanks Jenny. Their new mums, Amelia (4) and Lucy (2) think they are wonderful and are taking very good care of them. One bear is tucked up in bed with Lucy at the moment and the other is in the dolls pram waiting for Amelia's return from nursery! I'll put a photo up when I get a second. Sarah xx

Hi everyone, Gaynor Bear reporting in. Well I have had a lovely day, and a very busy one. I got off the train at Doncaster and had lots and lots of photo's taken but I will let Sue tell you all about that. I then went to meet the Mayor of Doncaster, and had some more photo's taken and I was shown around the Mansion House by the Mayor herself, who is a lovely lovely lady. I also met Aunty Jenny again, and went to the pub with her, Sue, and Maggie who is looking after me until tomorrow. I also sat on Maggies motor bike with my shades on and had more pics taken. It was a little practice run for tomorrow when I will be going on Uncle Daves big bike to start my trip into Nottinghamshire. Im also reunited with 2 of my babies and Im sat on the sofa giving them a cuddle. Oh yes and Ive also met a very dodgy looking male who's name is Side Kick, he keeps sitting next to me!! Im really not too sure about him. Hope Aunty Maggie keeps me away from him.

Hello Jenny, Sorry to be a nuisance, but I'm afraid I've lost your address to send a cheque. Please will you e-mail me with it. Many thanks! Really looking forward to seeing Mini-GB. Paula is clearing all her other teddy bears to prepare pride of place when she reaches the Glorious County! Cheers, Philip

Very IMPORTANT.**********Further to Dawns fantastic news, I am pretty sure we can say The Gaynor Bear Relay has virtually raised its first £1,000. If I sell all the mini Gaynor Bears, Plus money collected at the Geordie meet, Group One Relay team and I believe someone has a cheque for £100 for the relay. We have our first £500 already. So with Vodophone's fantastic pledge to double our amount to a maximum of £500. Bingo, we have our first £1,000. Please make sure any Sponsor money collected and sent onto me, is made out to 'The Pink Fund' and has 'The Gaynor Bear Relay' written on the back. My address is on the Official Press release. Thanks to all concerned and Well Done. Jenny. xx

Hi Jenny and Pink, Just to let you know that I have now had official confirmation from the Vodafone Foundation that they will double the amount the relay raises (up to a max of £500), so that gives the total that added boost! Are there any more mini bears left? Just read the message. If so put me down for one. Good luck Pink in China!! Thanks Dawn x
