Hi Colin and Rick,

It was great to meet you both and the rest of the angling group last night. I enjoyed the meeting and was both thrilled and amazed at the amount of money you have raised. What struck me though was the fabulous spirit of community with you all coming together to support Colin and his family when they have been through the most horrific of experiences. Colin you must feel very proud to have such wonderful friends and support in your community. I am touched by this on both a personal and professional level. Claire House exists because of wonderful people like you who have empathy for others and do something to make a difference.

If you could let me know what you decide to call your newly formed angling group we can ensure you get a copy certificate for all three locations more if required and thank you letters to those people we also discussed namely Dougie Walsh c/o Asda Ellesmere Port and Martin at Firtrees Wigan.

It really was my pleasure to meet you all and if dancing on tables is ever required you know where to find me!

Regards,

Pat Faragher

17th June - Three Way Charity Match - Fir Tree

Well 24 turned out and after fishing 8 sections of 3 Rivacre ran out the winners with five section wins, two seconds and a third.

Ian Lloyd ran out the individual winner of the first Three Club Charity event at Fir Tree with his catch of 35.6lb of mainly Carp + silvers caught at 17m on corn. Ian fed a pot of corn and pellet on this line, but started on the inside and had a couple of bits, but after an hour or so decided to try the far line on corn where he caught steady for the rest of the match.

Second was Billy Gore with 33.0lb caught on meat and pellet at 16m mainly down the inside and over. Billy was as doubled over at the end holding the pole for that length of time, and didn’t feel too good either suffering from food poisoning (could it be Dougie poisioning his butties to give us all a chance) third was Dave Cargill from Eggy Ferry with 20.7lb again caught over on pellet but managed a few from the track as well.

The total money looks like being over £2.000 and Rick has asked everyone to collect all their sponsors’ money by the 2^nd July for the WBAC meeting on the 9^th so Clair House representatives can come to collect the cheque. Keith is organising a Big cheque from the bank for the photos.
