Colin,
Do you have the sort code and account number of the Lions bank account, my bank, via ‘telebanking’ required this before being able to transfer any funds.
Best Regards
Ray
Hi ray,on Monday we was assured by lloyds-tsb the account would be up and running in 48hrs but I’m still no closer to be able to provide this information.
The frustrating thing there is my story is being published in the Stamford mercury on Friday and in our local paper.
I hope I have these details tomorrow and I will post ASAP .
Many thanks
Colin
I’ve sent them an email suggesting that they do this, I just can’t understand why there is nothing at all about it on their website .
Hi Harry , thank for your comment, but I don’t have any control of the content on the The Bourne & District Lions club.
I don’t know if it’s even been updated since Christmas .
Many thanks
Colin

I got a bit of a bollocking of someone called Secretary for asking a quite reasonable question in the economic climate.
However it has been shared on facebook and twitter
Have received a number of donations from individuals.
Please look at Bourne Lions website www.bournelions.org.uk Have set up a page for the Holiday where it shows how people can forward cheques whilst we wait patiently for Lloyds Bank. If you direct all donations and enquiries through this site we can then give everyone a running total as we progress . ExcitingÂ

Colin, I posted off a cheque to your home address this morning. Best regards David Hadingham ( Haddy ) Gt.Yarmouth, Norfolk.
Hello David,thank you so much for sending us a donation and support.
There is a link now direct to Bourne lions above if anybody wants to use that.
Yours sincerely
Colin & Louise
Hopefully between us all we can make a difference, but we cant without your help.
If you can, please donate. If you cant for any reason , then I am sure a message of support will go a long way.

Wow that’s fantastic John ,that just the lift I needed been in & out of hospital all week.
My bladder & bowels are really started to be affected by the MSA.
Good luck with auction

I was very disappointed with the response to our offer of a LGV course. To be honest we did not receive a single bid for the course before the webpage was taken down yesterday.
We will be sending our own donation of £100 directly to your home tomorrow. I would like to wish you the best for the future and sincerely hope you get to take your family on holiday.

Hi Steve ,yeah Dave said you rang him,it’s good to hear from you,do ever see Ian penny .
Its many since I saw you last when you and Ian had the F12 for R&G.
The lions club in Bourne set up a fund to send me and my family to Florida.
We about £1500 from reaching our target.
But I need an operation first and I’m on an urgent list for a high dependency bed at Peterborough hospital but they told me yesterday that there is very high risk of not making it through the op.
So I just have to wait now and keep our fingers crossed.
Great to hear from you Steve.
Please keep in touch
Regard Colin
Morning Colin,
Real sorry to hear about your illness.
Can the MS Charity help in some way? Even if they contact DisneyLand on your behalf and get you free passes or just get permission to use the ‘special’ entrances.
The CF Trust did this for my Daughter a few years ago, it helped because she could go straight into the shows etc without having to stand in line. The heat was real hard on her and she needed to sit down as much as pos.
I’m guessing you’ve looked into medical insurance? Ours cost a small fortune, just for this one trip.
Look after yourself and take it one day at a time.
