Message from Emma at the House of Badger:
So feeling more organised now…

There are some great raffle prizes - a chocolate hamper, a couple of dog beds filled with some lovely things for dogs, a doggy hamper, a preserves hamper, a wine hamper, a Christmas hamper, a cake beautifully decorated by lemmysowner, a large toy dog donated by our local Pets At Home store, a bag of L'Occitane goodies and a bag of Origins goodies.


If anyone would like to donate another prize or part of one let me know, my email address is at the bottom of this message.

There will also be a doggie tombola where you can win a Christmas present prize for your pooch!

There will also be a small bran tub for the kids.

Food wise - there will be mini-mince pies and mulled wine for adult humans, a treat and some fruit 'punch' for the kids and doggie mince pies served on arrival.

There will be plenty of food and drinks to purchase along with some homemade soup to warm the cockles of your heart. I'm making quiche, sausage rolls, cheese scones, blueberry muffins, Christmas cupcakes, date and walnut cake and Millionaire's shortbread. If anyone would like to bring other goodies please do.  (Oh Gillian….your Bakewell tarts went down a treat last time... )

If anyone would like to donate a Christmas present for a Wiccs dog then there will be a tub to put them in - all the woofers who have just returned will be very grateful.

If anyone else would like to donate some grub, prizes etc let me know!

Alison T has kindly agreed to help man the tea tent so if anyone could help by either selling raffle tickets and/or running the doggie tombola then that would be marvellous!

Sharon and Sarah will be running a mini dog show.



And finally … there will be another tub to deposit gifts should you so wish - if you want to know more about it email me and I will give you the details….... shhhhhhhhh!!
