While Call Sign was on its summer break, another hugely successful LTFUC outing took place – the annual trip taking 200 children from four ‘special needs’ schools across London to the Chessington World of Adventure. The children were taken in a convoy of balloon decorated  taxis under escort by Metropolitan Police outriders who did a great job in making sure they got there on time and grateful thanks must go to them.
   Uncertain looking weather kept queues to a minimum meaning more rides and fun for the kids. The rain, which had looked threatening, didn’t arrive until late afternoon, so a great day was had by all – except perhaps for a few drivers who had been dragged onto the rides by the kids and came off looking rather ashen!

   Two cheque presentations were made to the fund. Amanda White of Westminster Motor Insurance and Chris Kelsey, Government Affairs Officer of LTI Vehicles, both presented cheques to the fund’s Honorary Life President, Bill Tyzack, BEM (C06) and the Fund are deeply grateful to them for their generous donations.

   The Hon. Chairman and Committee would like to extend grateful thanks to Chessington World of Adventures for making the day possible and would also like to thank Waterline Ltd, Premium Appliance Brands (Kitchen Appliances), Franke (Sinks & Taps), Crown Imperial (kitchen Units), Rangemaster (Hobs & Cookers) and  bbh (Bartle Bogle Hegarty).
   In addition, the Fund would also like to thank the Jet Service Station of Clipstone Street,
   The RAC, St John’s Ambulance, McDonalds, KFC, Pizza Hut and Caffé Nero.
  
Last but not least, the Fund would like to thank all the wonderful drivers and helpers who came and made the day possible by giving so many needy children a great time. They hope to see you all again at the Southend outing on Tuesday 12 July 2005 which promises to be a really special fun packed day. New drivers not on the Fund’s list should contact the LTFUC Drivers’ Liaison, Susan Angel, on 07958 280881.

Proud Leslie shows off his Moonwalk medal after walking 26 miles.

An exhausted Leslie Cohen (S98) – who admits to being “70+” - yelled out in delight as he crossed the line after completing the 2005 Moonwalk Marathon for Breakthrough Breast Cancer in Hyde Park on 18 June. Lesley had appeared on May’s Call Sign cover.
   “That was great,”
said Leslie, “but it was the easy part. I still needed to do the Walk! It took me eight hours to walk the 26 miles, but I kept at it and was determined to see it through. I’ve been training intensively and many have shown their faith in my ability through their sponsorship. I couldn’t and wouldn’t let them down” he said firmly.

   He ended by proudly telling us: “When all the money is in, I’ll have raised over £2000!”
    Leslie is now busy chasing up all his sponsors and politely requests that all outstanding money be sent in as soon as possible.
   Well-done Leslie…
