A while ago our Eamonn (Silver) sent me a box of beautiful timber pen boxes. His grandson threw in some boxes he was going to sell for pocket money, here we’re about a dozen boxes & some template he ct on his laser for me.
Yesterday I received a box of acrylic pen blanks from our Frederick.
Our Neil Lawton has run his first auction of beautiful timber pen blanks on Fb which finished to night & raised £60.
All these donations are to be used as fundraisers for my charity Blind Veterans UK.
In these days of funding starvation due to coved these donations are more thank welcome & is deeply appreciated.
I give a GREAT BIG THANK YOU for your generosity it warms my heart & makes me feel humble to have such friends
I also want t than those who bid on the auction because without their generosity the auction wouldn’t have happened.
No pics I’m afraid as I’m unable to take any at present.

You are always welcome Bill, I know they will be put to good use and hopefully help raise those valuable £’s that they need.

I know you don’t like to ask, but never be afraid to give me a nod if you need anything making special to help funds.

You can always give me a call if you need a chat, or need someone to bore the death out of you so you can sleep! :tongue:

Having been to Llandudno several times Bill to meet yourself and Woody I can vouch for the outstanding work done by Blind Veterans UK.

Hi Keith, I hope you are all well. Thanks for the endorsement, they do great work as well you know. It’s a while since I’ve seen you on here but I’ve been a bit quiet myself.
Take care mate.:thumbs:
