The bass sale that turned a (massive) corner… - *SOLD* £2300 Manchester

[walshy]

Also remember if anyone actually wants to buy a ripper and they do so via me at Vintage Bass Room I will chuck another £500 in the pot as mentioned before. Lets get this to £10k

While talking to Jen about the extra donations (she sends her love) - Iris climbed out of her adapted chair (she has one at home and one at school) and took it for a wander.

 

this is quite the development.

 

ignore the mess of the house and the state of us post work/school.

 

this really is a big deal - she has a walker, but it’s so big and heavy - she hates it…

He measured Iris, the stairs, saw how Iris can get on a chair…then said “so, stairlifts”

A stairlift would drive Iris up the wall...

I've got tears watching this. I can't remember the last time I had tears. 

 

This justifies what we are doing. 

 

Let's keep going.

The 78 you have is really similar to mine - I had designs on a matching pair…

 

Still playing the lottery just in case x

Jenny just had a cry, it’s funny really - I’ve always just assumed we’ll see Iris walking.

 

This is about 4 years of trying different things.

 

She did this herself…that tells me all I need to know.

Having reached the (latest) £8k target, Brucey says he isn't formally raising it again 

.. but would like you to consider adding to the pot in the last 6 days of the fund raiser as every little will help Iris and the Travis family
