Bad news Malcolm, My usual golf outing was cancelled due to the bad weather here in Dublin, so no collection from my buddies until next week ( weather permitting ). Sorry for the delay in collecting some more funds for Ismael but it's beyond my control , unfortunately !

No need for you to say sorry . You have done more than your fair share of fundraising and am very grateful for your efforts.

As I am to others who have helped the campaign.



I think once I have converted what my friend sent from the UK and payment of pledges that I am aware of we will have TL3500.....................subject to confirmation.............but fairly sure.

Sort of final total for sponsorship is :



TL 3645.00



This includes Lee`s TL150.00 and Dawn`s sponsor money but does not include money sent direct to Ismail UK a/c from Eamonn or Lapta Mike & Charlie Berry`s money.

Malcolm,



Just back from a wonderful golfing day with my friends in Portmarnock Golf Club ! Unlike last week, the weather was kind to us and this kindness was extended , by my buddies, to Ismael's fund. I have collected the equivalent of £40 from them and will get my son to forward it to the Paypal account before the end of the week !

message 16,



A pledge of 100tl to wear a Rangers hat during the marathon by Nurse Awful was easily offset by a mad Celtic supporter to give more not to wear it, even although it was probably the only opportunity for Rangers colours to be seen in Europe this year.......all in a good cause

A generous Celtic supporter looseboots is not that unusual, but it is normally goals they give away and not money!! Well done Charlie you are a star.

Hello EamonnMc I think Malcolm may still be waiting for a Pledge from one 44 member, I will check with Malcolm.



Touch wood, there is no mad rush, (No news is good news).



At present Ismail is receiving his check ups and scans under the Sigorta scheme that we funded. His dad came to Cyprus in search of work and this affected Ismail, he is very close to his dad and missing him, he is also suffering a bit on the psychological side, he has been through so much pain and upset. He has a lot more to go through yet.



But he is still with us and most of the time happy in him self. Jan and I have really missed seeing him and his family.



I think Malcolm will reach the 4 K Also there is Ladies lunch function soon at Hoots Bar, and the organisers have very kindly asked me to organise the raffle and perform a few numbers and that should raise a few hundred Lira for ismail.



Thank You EamonnMc and all our other supporters for your continued help and support.
