I had a whole load of stuff to write on Friday after a day in the studio and came home to write it then realised that I had already done a blog post in the morning – two posts in one day looks a little too obsessed. So now I can’t remember anything that I was going to write about – typical.
So anyway today I managed to raise £141.16 for RNIB towards my target of £1500 London Marathon pledge. The lovely staff of Waitrose Rushden let me fundraise with BLUES, the noisy interactive flowers that I took to Edinburgh last year. Thankfully no actual complaints were lodged and I don’t think they were paying me to go away….
The highlight of the day was when a visually impaired girl, probably aged about 4 or 5, interacted with it and managed to see the switches which are illuminated. She also liked touching the flowers wihich are quite an interesting texture, patchwork and varied with stitching. Somehow after that it all seemed extra worthwhile.
Thank you to all who donated!
