Me and my helpful daughter had fun with our Guinea pig information stall at BARC open day today.
We had lots of information leaflets and knitted piggies to adopt that my friend had made.

It was a lot quieter than last year.... but fun was had by all, and the day made over £600 for the Rescue
:)
 
Wow, what an amazing amount of money you raised! I have one of these knitted piggies! Is your friend called (i think it was...) Sue?! It is really beautiful and looks so much like a piggy! x) I got mine from ebay and is now called Winnifred!
 
Wow looks like a wonderful day and I love the knitted guinea pigs.
 
Looked great and I love the knitted piggies too - saw them on ebay recently. Have the one your daughter is holding in the 3rd pic, my daughter bought it for my birthday and I treasure it x)
Well done for raising so much cash - worth every second :))

We sold (adopted) 4 knitted piggies and had 3 left, I bought a knitted piggie from e-bay too and my very talented friend Sarah said she would have a go at making some for the Open Day....she made some fantastic bunny buns and biscuits too... I'm not very good at making things but I did the adoption certificates for the knitted pigs and some leaflets about C&C cages and Guinea pig information.
I spent loads on piggie treats, fleecy blankets, tombola, an 'Etch A Sketch' (A toy from my childhood) and handmade Jewellery :)

And the sun shone all day
 
Are there any knitted pigs left...?! Seeing as my tenancy agreement says no pigs indoors, I need to fill the flat with pretend pigs!

Yes the 3 that were left I left with Angie - there is the Black/Grey one and 2 of the multi colour orangy Pigs - and she takes paypal ;) :)

Wow the knitted piggies look so realistic! Well done for raising so much money. You did so well. :)

Angie bought them to sell so she popped them on my stand... one sold but the 2 long haired ones are still left.

We were selling them for £6.00... but on Amazon they are £25.00 :o [ame]http://www.amazon.co.uk/Country-Artists-CA03511-Haired-Figurine/dp/B005EWRL4C/ref=sr_1_1?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1312270557&sr=1-1[/ame]
 
ok i admit it, I'm a knitted piggy lover too, they are amazing.

Well one, £600 for a quiet day is flipping brilliant :))
 
Wow! They are so awesome! Love the way you brought the real piggies in the cages :p Looked like you had a ball! Raised loads of money as well!
