Swimming for MattDotCom
appears to be the in thing. Alice, her dad and
some friends completed a sponsored swim recently raising
£597.80p. This included some match funding from
'abbey'. Thank you all very much.
From 'Mastercare Service
Logistics the return of our broken machines.
Dean Todd (centre) who was one of the team who fixed our
broken computers and Ian Watson (right) the nice guy who
arrange for them to be fixed found out what the problem is - a
leaflet jammed into the machinery. Dean said
"I arrive with tools galore and all it needed was a paper
shredder." Thanks lads for all your help.
Surprise number one on our
visit to Mastercare Service Logistics came when
the manager, Dave Mooney, presented
MattDotCom with five new desk top systems.
Our chairman said that David's (that is our David) face was a
picture as they produced box after box after box. These
machines are earmarked for teenager in-patient units in
Midlands and Yorkshire. Thank you all at Mastercare
Service Logistics, Lincoln.
Then it just got better, when
Alan Dean, the Manager at the Mansfield Digital
Services (Mastercare in Mansfield) stepped forward
and presented not one, not two, not three, not four, not five
BUT SIX laptops. Sharon (our chair) said David's (our
PRO) face just fell to the floor and bounced back up. A
mega big thank you to all the lads and lasses at
Mansfield. These machines will go to teenagers in the
East Midlands. Though if the request continue to come in
from further a field they could end up in Liverpool.
Hey a massive big
thank you to the 3rd Lincoln (St. Nicholas)
Brownies who raised a whooping £228.65p. They
took part in a number of events. Here they are
presenting the Chair and the Secretary with the cheque.
Our team of ten who ran the Lincoln 10k on 4th
of April 2004. So far the team
have raised £400 - with more to come in. We hope to beat
last year's total of over £1,000.
The team was Jackie, Sam, Sharon, Jenny, Scott, Nick,
Phil, Scott, Chris & Sam's friend (he did have a name
but did not want to wear it out). Thank you to each and
everyone of them for the time they spent training and then
turning out on the day. Jenny is already thinking about
the Lincln 10k 2007. If you would like to join the team
contact her c/o MattDotCom, 47, Bunkers Hill, Lincoln,
LN2 4QS or on 01522 874738.
Our thanks go to the Spilsby Round Table
who kindly included us in the charities they supported this
year. David Harding-Price (Public Relations Office) met
with Roy Poelstra (Chairman of Spilsby Round Table) to collect
the cheque at the Round Table's annual awards dinner.
