Just to let you all know that I think the day has been Ace. I now have Gaynor Bear at home with me. We have all had a brilliant time. Loads and loads of photo's. Will let all those that have been with us tell you all about it. I am just too gobsmacked. Jenny. xxx A bit worse for the wear. ***Sunday***. I would like to thank you all for making my Geordie Meet so wonderful. My bouquet of flowers that you all bought me. Well, what can I say!!!! What a shock I got when I saw the size of it. I can honestly say it is the biggest bouquet that I have ever recieved in my life. I was absolutley stunned. Thank you all, but you know you really shouldn't have done. I was so pleased that Pink was able to join us at the very start of the relay. She arrived at Central station with Gaynor Bear and Grandpa Jim, looking Radiant. Lol. Where we sat for an hour dithering. It was freezing cold and we were all ready for our first tipple of the day, which was around 11.30am. We were still going strong at 7.30pm. Really expected a massive hangover this morning. But not a sign of one. Goodness knows how the rest of you are feeling. Catch you all later. Jenny. xxxxxx
