uvenile Arthritis / Uveitis

Happy Friday all


 I received this email earlier today from a colleague my good friend works with. It certinally touched my heart, and i thought i would share it with you all. This disease affects 1 in 100 children Also if anybody knows any businesses who would be willing to help there are contact details at the end. To me this is a very worthy cause it made me stop and think what if.. what if it was my child or niece or nephew cousin ect.... there are many other organisations i do support dont get me wrong. As a member of markets and fairs magazine i have done all i can at the moment and that is putting adds on our website and on our email club that goes out to 1800 ppl every 2weeks.  So please have a read and i hope you are all as touched as i was..


Dear Gemma,


I am writing to you concerning a charity which is close to my heart and concerns our children.


I am the mother of a little boy who suffers from Juvenile Arthritis and was diagnosed at the age of two. It is a painful and cruel disease which can affect 1 in 100 children and at this stage there is no cure and we are not aware of the causes.


For the past two years we have been actively seeking the support of friends, organisations, businesses and the general public alike, through a fund raising dinner, to aid in the research for finding a cure and we are extremely proud to say that we have achieved so much! Our efforts have enabled the University of New South Wales to open the first ever research laboratory for Juvenile Arthritis / Uveitis in Australia.

In order to make this event successful again, we require prizes, gifts and cash donations from organisations such as Markets and Fairs magazine. We will be holding various raffles and a live Auction on the night, as well as great entertainment and a great time to be had by all. The dinner is being held at the Doltone House on 17th September 2010 and will have an attendance of 400 people. Your logo will be displayed on our website as a sponsor as soon as we receive a confirmation of donation, also displayed on the night,  and we offer the opportunity to put your fliers/magazines in the gift bags taken home by all.

I understand that there are many charities that would request donations from you on a daily basis and you must be inundated with emails such as this one. Any donations that you may be able to supply large or small would be of great assistance to helping us continue the research into finding a cure. As soon as any donation is received we would put Markets and Fairs' logo on with our current sponsors (of which include such names as Nokia, Jim Beam, Imax and Kelloggs) and Markets and Fairs Magazine would be noted on the night.


Please feel free to visit our website if you would like more information on Juvenile Arthritis Fundraiser.www.juvenilearthritisfundraiser.com


I thank you in advance for taking the time to read my email :-)


Warm Regards,

•  Yowie sighting - In 1987, the Alice Springs police station received a call from a frightened family. The family had stopped for a cup of tea after a morning of rabbit hunting. Then a huge ape like creature, two meters tall and covered in hair, leapt out of an empty water tank and began walking towards them. The family fled to their truck and the creature ran after them before disappearing into the bush. The man, Frank Burns believed it was a man however the women, Phyllis Kenny, told the press she could tell the difference between man and beast and this was definitely a beast. The following day police searched the area and found a man, 203 centimetres tall weighing a estimated 127-159 kg (or about two Oprah Winfreys) sitting naked by the roadside. The man was then taken to a local mental hospital.  (i knew they were real)

Afternoon to yall

Well it has certainly been a while since i have written with the boss preparing to go overseas again i haven had much spare time. With her gone for an extented period and me chewing through my work quickly i now have a some spare time. Soim back *claps*

After having a fairly relaxing Sat. On Sun morning the boy decided he would cook me breaky and we would go to the shops gets some dvds and have abludge day..... Well.... little did we realise that they were all CLOSED! yes that's right i got rushed out the door for what i thought was nothing.... well oh how wrong i was. i thought i would take a long shot and see if we could go to the markets ( thinking that he hated then) and know i love going and browsing around i thought it would be a perfect pay back for rushing me. BOY i was Wrong

So off we went to Liverpool markets ( one of my clients) with me in the passenger seat frantically ringing them to make sure they were open before we jumped on the free way... Which they were.

A we parked the look on boys face said it all " where the hell has she brought me" from the outside it looks like a giant shed. as we crossed the road we could hear carni music and that look was priceless... as we wondered around he spotted a stall with (la git) football memorabilia we stopped half an hour later he decided on one. with leaving the stall he claimed he was( wrapped) we continued to look and he bought a few more items. Then the stall whom ( unfortunately ) i don't have has a client called OZ Rock well this bloke was plain out rude and obnoxious really got my blood boiling he sell band t shirts. Whilst browsing he came over ( as most stall holders do) and proceeded to ask what nationality i was. I told him Australian and in other words he pretty much told me i was a liar and that i couldn't be i had to beItalian or something (Below is a photo of me n the boy on v day this yr)

He then pointed to the boy and said look at him is Aussie his WHITE. Well as the blood rushed to my head i kept my mouth shut ( not remembering if he was a client or not) i stood there completely gob smack as he carried on about othercertain nationalities who make up quite a large percentage of stall holders at this market, and how they have ruined this country. At the next available moment we hit it outta there talking about that experience for the next few hours with my new nickname ( for this week at least) being my little Italian Minx.... Thanks Boy!!

On the Ride home the biggest shock it me, he suggested that we do markets at least every 2 weeks... well if i had been standing i think i would have fallen over. This suggestion i will be keeping him to.. so our next adventure will be .......Parklea

So Till next time Enjoy
