We only decided to do it just over a week ago, when we were talking about cancer and she was asking me questions about when I was poorly with breast cancer a few years ago. \u00a0 I suddenly decided that this was the year I wanted to do it, and Evie was the one I wanted to do it with!! \u00a0When deciding what pink things I would wear, I thought of my mum’s pink cardigan…..she was wearing this when she was poorly and when she died, it was such a comfort for me, so I put it on for the first time in almost 3 years and it felt amazing.<\/p>\n

At about the 4k mark we were flagging a little so popped in to Patisserie Valerie…….never expected to get caught on camera by my husband Trev ha ha…all in the name of raising money I say!!<\/p>\n

I think we have raised over \u00a3160 for Cancer Research, and couldn’t have done it without donations from kind friends and family, so THANK YOU VERY MUCH \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Think an afternoon of art is in order…..don’t you?<\/p>\n
