LIGHTS: So grateful for donations
I really enjoy Christmas, as those who have seen my display must realise, and I hoped that others would enjoy my lights too, and maybe have a smile because of them, but I had no idea just how much people liked them until the bit of bother when they were vandalised.
I was totally overwhelmed by the level of support, the number of messages, cards, letters, gifts and offers of help.

Hide AdI have met so many kind people, many total strangers calling, and then there was the fund-raising campaign started by another stranger, who I now feel is a friend.
I hope people have seen that all the donations (about which I was really embarrassed and certainly did not expect) have already been spent on new decorations.
I want everyone to know how grateful I am for their kindness, generosity and support. It has all made me feel a part of this wonderful town and county and made me determined to continue.
I feel thank you is insufficient, but cannot find other words, so thank you it is.
