Do we continue on this thread, now the relay has started? Then as each member receives Gaynor Bear, they then post their adventure on here. But if we do that I shall have to delete my main thread. As we can only have one thread about the relay. As GR asked. I think a lot of us are still dependant on it to make contact with others via messages. Or shall we copy and paste these messages onto the main thread and ask Jean to delete this one. Which I think is very cheeky of me. Just dont know what to do for the best. Advice needed PLEASE. Jenny. x -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by Sarah Page on 25/04/2005 15:18:14 I'm sure Jean wouldn't mind if you copied and pasted onto the main thread (or even vice versa). It would be awful if one or both of them were removed from GR! Well done by the way for giving GB a great send off. I can't wait till I get her Sarahx -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by Vivienne Bodimeade on 25/04/2005 15:21:44 Hi Jenny When you had to delete all the other threads I emailed GR & asked if it were possible for them to add a sub board for the relay. They haven't even replied but maybe if you asked them? Vivienne -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by Deanna Carr on 25/04/2005 15:26:28 Good luck folks, enjoy the relay. Daisy, I did not even think of that, IT may well not be PINK by the time you get it. Ach it will............everyone will be so very careful. Best of luck you all!! Deanna (((x))) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by Ann Lazenby from Darlington on 25/04/2005 15:30:38 Jenny Don't know what to advise but we could just keep putting her progress on here and any prob's on your thread, and see if they say anything,after all it is all publicity for GR. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by ~Teri~ on 25/04/2005 16:49:54 nudge for lisa! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by ♥Jean inWashington( uk)♥38631 on 25/04/2005 17:16:37 Hi Everyone ill leave this on till about 8pm so everyone can see then ill delete, then we can all go to the main thread that way no one will miss out ,if thats ok with you Jenny??

Sorry folks. We decided it would be best to copy and paste Jeans Thread about Gaynor Bears Adventures at the begining of her relay. We just didn't want to risk getting the main thread taken off by GR. They had asked us to keep to one thread and we think it will be best to keep the Main Thread on, as there are a lot of us that depend on it to send messages to each other. I would have loved two threads. One for us all to use and one for Gaynor Bears Adventures. So sorry to confuse you all. You are all doing such a grand job. Thank you so much. Jenny xx

Hello everyone This is Gaynor Bear and I'm now in Darlington,we had a lovely car ride with a lovely lady called Ann from Peterlee and her daughter Julie who brought me to another lady called Ann. I have had some honey sandwiches for tea and a drink of milk, a lovely bath and now I'm ready for bed,yawn-------------- Ann from Peterlee is such a jolly person that Ann from Darlington said that her and Jenny may meet her in Durham sometime and have a laugh. Wish I could go but I will be on my travels around the country,please look at my pic on the Gaynor Relay site. Nite,Nite and God Bless xxxxxx

Could you all please make sure Gaynor Bear's autograph book is kept safe at all times. If anyone could spare a couple of pounds to replace it as it gets full, I would be very greatful. Will ask Pink where she got it from. I have put a couple of spare pairs of Winnie the Pooh nickers in. Ann from Darlington has provided the vests and sash. I am sure they will need washing occasionally. The little bag of Pink sweeties are for Gaynor Bear if she gets a little hungry. Wish you could have seen me at the Pick and Mix trying to get only Pink sweets with the scoop provided. Lol. I was wondering if someone could get a little Pink umbrella. If anyone can provide one please let us know, so we do not end up with loads. Dont forget your postcards if you can get one from where you live. Thanks. Jenny. xx

Hi All Gaynor Bear has had her ear's and hearing checked at the hospital and was very good, no problem's with her hearing at all. Yorkshire Lass (Emma)came with us and we had a little trip around the hospital,also a spot of lunch,Emma is so lovely. She had her photo taken, which I will put on MSN later after I have been to Woodwork class!!! She has had plenty of cuddles and a clean vest to go in. Andy Oop North now has her and they are on their way to Christine's in Marske. Now must go and remove contact lenses which has been curled up under my eyelid all day!!!!! Feels like a brick. We have had a lovely day. One of my colleagues think's I,ve lost it cos I'm talking to a Teddy Bear,,,AWww I do miss her

An early night is called for because she has another busy day tomorrow - 8.30 start at work - meetings and photcalls all day and finally a journey to Whitby tomorrow evening........so to bed.....

Hi Ann, Had no problem finding Christine's place, in the end. GB had a safe journey over from Stockton. :-) Andy x p.s. I have photos that are ready to upload, but I couldn't see a Create New Album option anywhere in Pictures on the Gaynor Bear site. I'm signed in, and am able to see this option on the GCPhotospage site. Do they have to be vetted by Jenny? :-S
