West Haddon Players
On 8th July Carol and Paul went to West Haddon in Leicestershire.
Paul’s niece, Jane, belongs to the West Haddon Players. The group who put on several performances each year donate the proceeds to a designated charity. This year’s charity was The Eye Fund.
Sigur Rós Winner, Neil Walker
After some furious Ebay bidding, our signed Sigur Rós “Hlemmur” CD/DVD was finally won by Neil Walker, who paid an astounding £360 for it. Well done, Neil!
Many, many thanks go to Sigur Rós for taking the time to sign things for us and for agreeing to meet up with Neil to hand his prize over at their London gig last night. Thanks must also go to John Best, their manager, and Paul Baines for being his usual awesome self. We couldn’t have done this without you, Paul.

Race Night Results
The latest fund raising venture was a Race Night organised by David. The venue was the Marine Football club in Crosby (where David and Ann-Marie had their evening do for their wedding).
After expenses, the amount raised was over £700. Well Done! David, even if he has a few more grey hairs now.
Liverpool 5
On September 7th 2008, the Eye Fund Sisters (aka: Helen, Anne-Marie, and Li), took part in the annual Liverpool 5k run around Sefton Park. All three finished with a personal best time and at the time of writing they’ve raised £640! Well done, girls.
