The Dambusters2012 H4H Teddies sold in the auction at the Birmingham Help For Heroes Ball last night. Teddy No.1 went for £800 and Teddy No.2 went for £700. All of that going directly to Help for Heroes. That's the happy part.
The sadness is that I have grown used to the two of them sitting on top of the book shelf in my study when I am working in the office at home.... and now there is just an empty space.
What a great night though! Thanks to Sue Sanders and the whole organising committee - what a top effort.
Thanks too to Flt Lt Stew' Campbell and his wife Claire who came down from RAF Lossiemouth to be at the H4H Ball to both support Dambusters2012 and also to sell the 'Day of a Lifetine at RAF Lossiemouth' prize in the same auction as the teddies.
Enjoy these few photo's.

The veterans speak - amazing men. Heroes.
The auctioneer and the Teddies...
A short pause for breath and then Dambusters2013 70 Anniversary Charity Motorcycle Ride !!! Bring it on!
