Tuesday 13th December was a much better evening weather wise for collecting. It was cold but dry. After the previous day’s problems with the sound system our handyman, David, had reattached the speakers to the sleigh and this time they stayed on.
We had 11 people in total out collecting, driver, Santa, back man, front man and 7 collectors, which presents a logistics problem as the Land Rover only holds 7 people. One of our members, Heather, volunteered to transport the other collectors to the start and pick them up from the end. I’m not sure she was two happy squeezing 4 people into her small car and I don’t think the car was too happy carrying them. Thanks to Heather and her car.
The evening passed without incident and we raised around £265. Well done everyone!
I‘ll be back tomorrow to let you know how tonight’s collection around Chelmsley Wood went. We will be in Clopton Crescent, Newby Grove, Tyne Close, Runcorn Close, Tay Croft, Rowan Way, Box Road and Whitebeam Road.
