We were overwhelmed to see so many enjoy themselves and party till the early hours of the morning.
The musicians contributed to the great atmosphere and donated some of their fees to the animals you have our thanks.
Christine Claussen’s donated jewellery has made six people very happy!
There were many donated raffle prizes, so kind of you all & the taverna staff of Seven Souls worked very hard under immense pressure.

Distressingly for all concerned we guess she had been set alight with lighter fuel.
She was brought to us for emergency treatment and is being nursed back health.
