Starting to get stressed now, thought I had nothing better to do than glue butterflies to netting fabric... it didn't work [used fabric glue]
have just had to sew 24 butterflies on to netting , just don't look to closely sewing is not my forte.
Still got pirate costumes to make for Niamh and Addie and Adam and Bob

We now have 24 kids taking part, so hope to raise lots of money.
If anyone is in North East Fife/ Dundee there is still time to get your youngsters registered if they would loke to take part. You don't need your own pony, they could borrow a R/S mount.
