Jenny.... I haben't read all the replies but PLEASE can she come to the Sahara with us in March? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!! Susie Bucket Monkey will give up her place if necessary! :O)

I shall always feel responsible for Gaynor Bear. She is my baby. Lol. When I bought her and first saw her, I fell in love with her. The Relay has bought me so much pleasure and has really help me get back confidence that I had been lacking for a few years. I feel responsible for the smooth running of the Relay and like to be available to all members who are helping make it a wonderful event. It is going to be very hard to part with her when I get her back at the end of it all. I am just a born worrier, Lol. Jenny. xx

Pink, I think that would be a wonderful idea. Yes, she can go with you. But she must be kitted out in Safari Suit. Lol. Jenny xx

Jenny.... thank you.... and I've been thinking about what will happen to her at the end and I for one think that Gaynor would love you to keep her especially as she has raised so much awareness and money along the way!! Please think about it as I know she has become part of you! :O)

Jenny - there shouldnt be any problem about how long it takes GB to complete her travels - will she ever? she has much to do and places to go and the longer it takes the more dosh she raises surely. You might need to think about the 2007 Calendar actually (rather than 2006) as I feel that she wont be suitably attired yet a while for appropriate pictures for each month. Anyway, she's enjoying herself so leave her alone - lol Jacqui

The 2006 Calender is going to be a collection of all the best photo's taken during the relay, voted for by members of the Relay. Not sure where the idea of having appropriate Photos have come from. Jenny.x

we all knew it wud take a long time as lots of people want to take part in the relay and its not always possible to pass her on every other day etc due to work, family and other comitments :-) xx

Surely the GB Relay takes as long as it takes....I give all the people who contributed to the fund a regular update and they are still interested..... I am sure that if she went round a second time they would welcome her back....if she went abroad before her return tour of Britain and had the passport and photos to prove it, even more funds would be raised....I haven't mentioned the calendar to anyone yet.......

Hi Jenny, As everyone else has said - it'll take as long as it takes....and anyway Stonehenge looks even more mystical when it has a dusting of snow!!! Well done on your achievements to date - you should very rightly be proud of yourself - take a gold star that lady!! Best wishes for further successful travels, Lucy x

Thank you all for your replies. You have really put my mind at rest, that the relay will not grind to a halt and members get fed up and decide not to participate after all. This has been a big worry for me. A very big Thank you to you all. Jenny xx

I would be very happy to have GB up here with us for Hogmanay...party at mine with Gaynor Bear on Kareoke!!! woohoooooo..... It doesnt matter to me one bit how long the Relay goes on for...and for anyone who did drop out I'm sure there will always be someone else who will step into the gap... Getting GB from Group 15 to us in Scotland Group 16 wont be any problem so long as someone can get her to the Border...I've already said I'm happy to travel there to pick her up and we do have somone just across the border anyway...
