DING-DONG-DO... WREATH

Just had a word with Happy Wanderer about us getting a wreath done for Dave Higson's funeral on Wednesday. Need to get a proper quote, but my missus guesses "Ding Dong Do" would cost around the ??300 mark.

Now then, that's a lot of dosh to raise. If 60 people on hear could donate a ??5 each, we'd get that.

 

Or do you reckon the money could be better spent?

I had a load of bother when I set-up paypal. in the end they sent me a 6 digit pin in the post. which i entered t'other day and bingo - paid happy ??10.

Hopefully when I get home tonight , they will be a letter from them and I can sort it out then ... better late then never

love to see a picture of the wreath, hope its in the BEN.

 

R.I.P. Ding Dong Doo, its 9.45 and he will be laid to rest in 15 minutes, my thoughts are at overdale at the mo, and i will have my own minutes silence at 10.00am.

Just thought I'd let everyone know was at the Reebok this morning when Dave went passed, the first car was an extra coffin car and the DING DONG DO wreath was in it proudly displayed for all to see.

 

=D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D>

 

Dave was behind. It was truly a very emotional moment having known Dave for 14 years I miss him....

 

Well done everyone

Just got back from dave's funeral. Standing room only! A great send off for a great man.

 

. . .and 'The Great Escape' . . .half the congregation laughed, half cried!

 

Ding Dong Do flowers looked great. I was proud to have been a part of it's purchase.

good stuff! anyone take any pics?

I've just chipped in a tenner.

 

Hope that no one rearranges the letters to NODDING DOG or owt :-$

Tonights Bolton evening news page 2.

just paid a tenner,hopefully towards a brick or the flag,both great ideas

If he were commentating at his funeral, he would certainly be saying that it was a 'ding dong do', then coming up with a gem like 'they'll be stuffing their faces with my butties in a bit, like starving africans, so to speak'

 

RIP to a true wanderers legend.

??10 in. sorry for the delay been offline for a while. Hope it can go towards the charity or whatever the plans are.
