Garry Stead/Stuart Robson

[Deleted]

I've put a Jim Blanchard print of Scott Nicholls on ebay

cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=130121866497

All proceeds split 50/50 between Garry Stead and Stuart Robson.
The print is in excellent condition and was originally sent by Jim to my daughter following a major operation. She has now decided that the print will do these two brave men far more good by being sold than being stored.
Please give generously.

A very noble gesture.

Bidding has now closed on Star Lady's auction, which raised over £40 - an excellent contribution from Star Lady.
There'll be a collection at Berwick for Garry Stead during tomorrow night's meeting between the Bandits and the Glasgow Tigers.

Thanks Schumi, I looking forward to seing some of the riders I've not seen before.

There's a few going then, good, I do believe that Banditsfan99 is coming down too with porkpie, so hopefully I'll get to meet a few of you...

I'm going on the backstraight if its open,haven't seen a meeting from there for twenty odd years.Plus with big meetings at your own track,you turn up and find some fat old heffers from coventry have taken your weekly viewing spot!

not too worried about the result as long as lots of money is raised for garry.

LT, jb see you both there
