EVELYN kilvington commented on Diane McTigue's group UK"It is lovely to make sets of things but in the end as long as everything we make with love goes to the children who need them most it really doesn't matter.

Hello Evelyn,
Will be posting some things today - laminated colour sheets of photos mainly, plus quite a few black and white sheets of photos - I always find the pictures so effective. sorry it's a bit last minute - that's me all over! I have your address as Ardley House - is that still right?

Hi Evelyn - in theory, I'm happy to meet up - however, in practice, I don't quite know how that would work out, as I work full time as a primary education adviser, run the York City Gospel Choir with my husband and am also very involved with St Michael-le-Belfrey church several times a week! Oh - and I knit squares in my spare moments!!

Hello Evelyn
Just to let you know I have posted some squares to you today - 2nd class so it will take a few days. Thankyou so so much for doing this as it will really inspire my neighbour and I to do some more squares whilst we can do this, really keeps the postage costs low. If it gets too much for you though you really must say - I have visions of the PostMan staggering up your drive with armfuls of parcels.....
Thankyou again, Kathyxx

Pam Antink said… - Evelyn, hope you don't mind but have added your name & address into the discussion page I create for JigSaw - I very much hope that more people will add their names so that the load is spread across the UK! This is a wonderful first corporate step for KAS and it gives members who would like to send more an opportunity. Let's hope that someone like John Lewis might take us up as their 'charity'. Take care and thank for being so willing.xx

- Evelyn, sorry to hear about your bees. It must have been difficult to have the bees destroyed. It's fortunate that the queen could be saved. Hopefully when the inspector returns he/she will find everything is okay.
A school assembly is a good way to spread the word about KAS. Glad you like the photos....my husband is the computer expert so I just follow his instructions ( or when I can't follow them he does it for me !!) If you would like to upload photos let us know and we can "talk" you through it.
A family dinner sounds like a lovely way to celebrate.
