Memorygirls - Make Do and Mend

pania

i'll put an email around work today and see what I can get, there are loads of officers with young children that Iam sure will have strips they dont use anymore. when you have a poster let me know and i'll take it to my local suprmarkets and see what i can do. olive I fear you will be drowning under a sea of strips!!

Nah!!! I'm only throwing my odd fifteen minutes into the mix.

I'm amazed that I have found the bottle to start asking for things again though - just need to get my head around doing it for my own new business.

Also this is something for DS1 and I to do together - and a bonding project, something bigger than the pair of us is just what he needs at the moment after his wobble. Time with mum - but time doing something he can be proud of.IYSWIM?

Taking DS2 for a quick pushinthe buggy to deliver the letters for tonights AGM - then back to doing something productive for myself too.

I've asked my neighbour to ask in her school, she said if I can get a poster sorted she will ask the headmaster for circulate around the school and send letters home.

Anyone any good at posters?

Bitsy - your cooking idea is great! How about offering one-to-one tuition to older teenagers getting to the point of thinking about moving out of home or going to university - I guess it would be their parents that you would really need to market to. I bet there are LOADS of Mums and Dads out there who don't feel they know enough or could structure it enough to teach their kids themselves, but would much rather know they were heading off knowing enough of the basics that they wouldn't be living off super-noodles and angel delight!

MG - the person who suggested East Anglia as a venue earlier was spot on - there are good sized student populations in Ipswich, Norwich (UEA) and Cambridge obviously. Bury St Edmunds, Diss and Thetford would all be good places to look at if you were looking for somewhere central to all three locations as the road links are good - the public transport links are not as good - I'm not sure about buses but train-wise Ipswich and Norwich are linked (along with Colchester) but although there IS a train link from Cambridge to Ipswich it's slow.....HTH?

Right - off to do a 15 minute stint with some comment I need to make on a document - Back soon! xx

I am so sorry but I just managed to report this as spam instead of thanking. :eek:

Hi Everyone

I have emailed everyone in my contact list, asking for shirts, so hopefully will come up with a few more to add to the ever growing pile

MG, as someone mentioned Norfolk/East Anglia for one of your courses, I live just 10 mins from the UEA, so although I have no links with schools, universities and the like, I do have 3 spare bedrooms and you are more than welcome to stay if you would like.

I love the way this thread is so motivating, everyone is so upbeat its truly amazing :A
