Well folks i must be a glutton for punishment.
After all the hard work of doing an auction for a Local childrens hospice i am now doing one for one of our local churches.
I have got to do good as it is the church where my fiancee and i are getting married next year.
So if any one have got any email addresses i can use i would really appreciate it.
As from experience i know how expensive it can get with postage and every thing.
Cheers guys.
