South Asia Emergency Appeal

---

In early January 2005 we held our first ever charity auction, with all of the proceeds going towards the Tsunami Disaster relief operation.

All items being auctioned that evening were cakes!
Both home-made and shop-bought were brought around our tables to tempt us, and the bidding was fast, and the eating of the cakes almost as quick.

Buns, pavlovas, sponges, gateaux and even Aunt Isabel's famous apple pie were up for grabs.

 

Not a single piece of baking went under the hammer for less than £10, and one magnificently decorated pirate cake went for a staggering £300!!!

In the end, our auctioneer David McAdam got his just deserts, and we were able to send a cheque for £3000 to help rebuild homes and lives in South Asia.
