Hi all and Happy New Year

On New Years Day my neice and 6 of her mates did the 'Loony Dook' in the freezing water of the river Forth,this has become a tradition up in Scotland that groups of people brave the icy water for charities of their choice.
My neice and her 'brave' friends wore bikinis and bunny ears which drew lots of attention as you can imagine!!
They were surrounded by photographers and had their photos taken with their Mouth Cancer t-shirts proudly on display.
We do not have a total from them yet but will let you know once it has been counted.
I am so proud of them and I am sure you will all join me in thanking them for doing this for Mouth Cancer.
I am not sure how to upload photos so maybe Krishan or Dr Joshi will help.

Best wishes
Tracey

Wow Tracey I am so impressed. I can't wait to see the photos. I cannot imagine what it is like
being in freezing water and they will certainly have earned every penny they make. Please say thank you from me!
Regards
Gwyn

I will pass on your thanks, the figure mentioned is not the final total I think it will be nearer £600 once it is all counted.

My neice Clair kept telling them in between chattering teeth 'ITS WORTH IT GIRLS,ITS FOR A GOOD CAUSE!!!'Big Grin
