Curryaoke Night & Update

Hi All,

Last nights curryaoke will be re-named "Rachel's hot curry night supported by bollywood dancing in a rugby club!!!" How surreal is that???

It was great to see you all last night and a MASSIVE thank you to everybody who came and braved the elements, you were more than generous... In total we raised a massive £730 on ticket sales and raffle tickets. It was great to see so many people drinking lots (probably due to the hot curry). I am sure the rugby club will be happy with the bar takings!!!!!

A huge thanks to the following: -
Michelle and Liz for helping with the curry and surviving the "cold" of the kitchen.
Rox, Heather and Sara for the bollywood dancing.
Denise & Grace for selling so many raffle tickets.
Martyn for picking all the high raffle ticket numbers!!!
Clare and Tom for their help in food preperation and washing up.
Everybody else who travelled far and wide to taste Rachels curry.

Apologies for the mess up with the karaoke - it is such a shame you all missed out on my performance of Freddie Mercury singing I want to break free!!!! It's probably for the best that you didn't see that..(especially as I was going to do it in drag!!!!)

We move out of our house this coming weekend (still have our mobiles) and will be crashing with our parents for a few days till we head down to Heathrow!!!!

Not much curry left, well enough to keep us going for the rest of the week!!!!!

We'll put another update on here prior to departure and then as soon as we can once we are in Cambodia..

Speak soon

Curryaoke Evening Is Getting Closer

Hi Guys,

Only 5 days till the Curryaoke and 4 days till Rachel leaves work!!!!! Hope you have all chosen your songs carefully. Anthony and Rachel will probably have a little trick/treat up their sleeves for Saturday night.... It will of course involve plenty of alcohol and some shocking singing... Party starts at 7.30pm but we (I mean Rachel) will be up at the rugby club all afternoon cooking as Anthony will be putting his boots for one last time to play for 1 minute!!!

Looking forward to seeing you all on Saturday and if we don't get chance on the night many many thanks for all your very generous donations.

Hi all,

Our departure date has been put back a week. We should now be leaving the UK on 10th March 2010. This gives us an extra week to sort everything out....
