I am only approximately 20 miles from Blackpool, so if teddy wanted to dip his/her paw in the sea, I would be willing to oblige. June xx

Mommy, How about West to East first - as it's the shortest? Then North to South. Then (by way of finale) all around the coast. Gwynne (nothing if not ambitious)

I like the idea of the East to West or vice versa first. I am out all day today. Meeting Ann Lazenby in Durham. Will be back on around 7pm. Thank you all for your ideas. Does this mean I am not so silly after all? Jenny. xx

Sounds like fun..... I could get some sponsor forms drawn up for teddy and we could organise it between us!! There is also The Relay For Life http://groups.msn(.)com/PinksPages/relayforlife.msnw But that will mean all people being in one place!! Let me know if you want The Pink Fund involved and I'll drum up some Cancer Research UK T-shirts etc!! Pink xx

I could take Pink Teddy from Hatfield, Herts to Waterloo station on London's South Bank, no probs, but it would have to be on public transport - and I don't know who'd sponsor me for sitting on a bus/train! CB >|<

Hi Jenny, Great Idea! How about plotting the route. eg Lands End> Penzance> Cambourne> Redruth> Truro...... and onwards and see who is the nearest person who could take the baton onto the next place on the map to be collected by the next member, say over a couple of weeks! and photos taken of the change overs!! Karen PS good luck!

Great idea we could get publicity too, local radio and TV stations along the route. i live near Weston-s-mare/Burnham-on-sea so would be more than happy to take teddy for a donkey ride on the beach Bev

I have been thinking about this bit of the country ..Daisy could pass it to me (meet Royston area) then from me to Becs then from Becs to Elaine in Harlow..But where from there???

I'd love to meet up / hand over Ted in the south east..... Perhaps in the area bordered by Canterbury, Dover, Dungeness, Hastings and Ashford.
