Today was great, apart from feeling really well, it was a the day Dawn chose to carry out her 'sponsored head shave'. Pat, Mike, Dawn and her two girls (Charlotte & Felicity) arrived just before ten. We wasted no time in setting up the make shift hair dressing salon and after a cup of tea the cutting began.
Dawn had really thick quite long hair, so I needed to cut it with scissors before shaving it with a No3. Thankfully Dawn decided to leave some hair and actually it looked great because she has a 'pixie like' face and very beautiful eyes. Charlotte giggled throughout and quite enjoyed the whole process, Felicity just said 'mummy looks funny'. We took lots of photographs, some of which will appear on my blog. I know Dawn has already raised over £500 for the oncology unit at York and there is more to come. My heartfelt thanks go out to Dawn for her relentless enthusiasm and personal sacrifice.
Later that day we were invited to Alan's new apartment where he cooked me a wonderful 'Gumbo' in response to my desire for spicy food. It was fab, so tasty and apart from lots of other spices, contained two whole bulbs of garlic - mmmm, lovely.
