I have tonight done a cabaret, dinner dance fundraiser for the dance school my children attend.

I was in charge of selling tickets and an auction and raffle..............all to raise funds for sponsoring (sp?) the dancers into professional dance academies.............

to say I was terrified would be an understatement, and my dress panic was massive.....(I did get one tho, seen on m profile).

anyhoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I RAISED...................(with the help of the other mum who was also doing it with me).................

£1000

So what happened to dress #1 with the stuck zip - have you taken it back, or is that tomorrow's project?

Well done all of you (and especially you )

psychomum5 · 30/08/2008 01:46

ah, I did do a thread about that.......I thouight first port of call was try and see if they would take it back, before I attempted more breakage mending it.

they took it back!!!!

hence the new dress. I did ask opinions tho, and not many responded to reassure.....but DH said I was just diggin for complements and was gorgeous already ((in his eyes)), so did not need MN's thoughts.

I disagree, tis always good to have women's opinions!

still, am on a high now, and got bought drinks by other men......
