She came up to me at the end and said how fabulous we were and how much had enjoyed herself, she was saying that when all the "young uns" stopped she kept going and was really proud of herself lol Yeah I think I met that old lady.

I heard about her from several sources. I think that the youngest participant was 18 months old - the 81 reversed! I can`t get hold of the charity until tomorrow to find out what they made from their collection - mainly because I fell asleep and woke up after it was a decent time to ring them! The Look North bulletin never appeared, although the ITV one did and I spotted several of you all on it. The BBC reporter warned me, when I rang up with the total that the report had been cut down in time, because we did not break the record but did not say that it had been cut out completely. Never mind - c`est la vie!! Yes that old lady was fab. I heard about her from several sources. I think that the youngest participant was 18 months old - the 81 reversed!

An 81 year old lady who had signed up at our table came back to see me at the end to tell me how much she had enjoyed herself. As you say there is always the 15th anniversary! Lynn Brown & Christian.
