    Ok, we have started a few of our runs... confirmed strikes include Rehab Care for their autism 24/7 care centre who we knew were looking for trikes, bouncy castles and a rocking chair and also Debra Ireland also got hit and our birdie told us that they really liked the DS's we got them before and more would do nicely. Pop Cap Games donated a DS and games to so that seemed like a match (as did someone else who's name currently eludes me). If you donated a DS... thats where it went. :) We also gave them a load of games and jigsaws they were looking for.

    Walking away from a fairly shocked group of DEBRA's, myself and Amp
    we're heading down the corridor to the exit and we heard someone go "oh WWWwwow!!!!" which was pretty cool...

    Strikes are going to be on going over the next two weeks with one pretty huge one in the new year... I'll keep you posted :)

    Great stuff DeV.

    I imagine this is the rewarding part for the hard work.

    Thats the funny thing, I actually dont do anything up until this point. Everyone else does and dumps the money into the central account. Even now I have people driving me around and helping me buy stuff and deliver it. I kinda feel like the Soup Stone sometimes :)

    But yeah, its very rewarding and a lot of fun. This year santa has been very late because we're stilll collecting money, but in the new year we are planning a special hit which if it comes off will be amazing (I hope)!
