Just dropped a little donation to say thanks to Graham (911hillclimber) for the loan of some slave wheels so I can get mine refurbished :)

Thanks Gary.

Although we've passed the anniversary I see no reason not to leave the just giving page open as it serves as a convenient way of collecting ongoing donations

I know it's a circular.

However the words ring true and thanks to everybody that contributed in 2013

A message received today from Macmillan

"Hello Thomas

With just a couple of weeks left until the end of the year, we would like to say a huge thank you for supporting Macmillan in 2013. Because of you, we’ve been able to make sure that more people across the UK don’t have to face cancer alone. Macmillan really couldn’t wish for better supporters."

Quick update....

I've just updated our page at http://www.justgiving.com/ddk10kfor10years and changed the 'story' to clarify why we're going to keep the campaign open even though our 10th Anniversary is just a distant memory.

We've now gone over £13,000!

I've just added some money collected from generous attendees at the Tuthill day and some other funds from a deal I did with Mr Mycar for counterfeit goods!

Worth reflecting on what's been achieved.

Since I started the page/campaign to raise £10,000 to mark our 10th anniversary we've raised...............

£13032.09!

James' Endurance 24 hours raised £4095.27

That's over £17,000 - a wonderful achievement.

In our first decade we've raised well over £50,000 for MacMillan - take a bow DDK. Much appreciated.

Amazing stuff... just shows what a committed group of like-minded people can do, little by little with every pound counting.

A great result and long may it go on 8)

Phenomenal work by all. £50k. That really is a significant sum.

I think one of the early auctions was Philips 356A (pre A?) that I will live to regret not winning.
