Keppoch Street Market Fund-raiser

Well we had a good day today at the market and raised £100 or 10% of my target. Thanks to Matthew Dixon for helping Meg to run the stall while I pedalled on the iMagic trainer. The odd thing was we raised much more in direct sponsorship and donations than from the raffle and the competition. The competition was to estimate my total pedal revolutions while riding the 44Km Olympic Poseidon course in VR. Only two people entered but one of them was very close so she got the prize.

I would like to thank Sue the market manager for allowing me to have the stall and to the stall holders who donated prizes:

1. Voucher for Whole Chicken (£5/£6)-Dickendale Farm
2. Voucher for mixed Pack of Sausages/burgers-Cig Lodor
3. Voucher for a mix of Olives(~£5)-The Olive Bar
4. A box of organic vegetables-Ty Mawr Organic Veg
5. 3 Jars of Jam & Chutney-Avril’s Country Kitchen
6. Pack of Fairy Cakes-Lewis Fine Foods
7. Pack of Coffee Beans-TheCaffeineKid

People were friendly and interested. My time on the trainer was rather long as I couldn't get the feedback from the screen as my laptop wouldn't drive two screens at once (driver problems).
