    Rushmere has posted this onto the Camilla Thread but I thought it was only right to set up a new thread for comments.

    Great Work Rushmere, Yorkie, Steve and all concerned <applause>
    It makes you feel great to be a supporter of our great club!

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    OK all... job done yesterday. I rounded the figure up to £70 and bought a card in which I copied Hamps' message verbatum but included all screen names in full.

    The original idea was to make sure all good and then bugger off ooop north (6 hour drive) but this didn't go quite to plan. I made a point of waiting for the bouquet to be made (to make sure we got value for money - and we really did!) but when it was completed, and paid for, I gave them the delivery details only to then establish they didn't deliver to Ipswich!!

    Therefore had to take the flowers directly to PR before starting out on my already delayed journey. Delivered them to reception but the receptionist insisted that Camilla be called. After explaining that I was not a weird stalker with flowers - Camilla read the card and accepted the flowers. It is fair to say that she was both shocked and delighted in equal measure and thought the flowers were beautiful. She was amazed that we had all taken the time to do this for her and seemed genuinely lost for words. She was though, extremely grateful and asked that her sincere thanks were passed on to all concerned.

    So well done everyone - I beleive that we made Camilla a very happy lady indeed.

    Very kind of you JWM but unjustified mate. All I did was the easy bit at the end. Everybody played their part here and all should be congratulated on a great job with the end result just what we wanted.

    I love the bit about you having to explain to her that you weren't some kind of weird stalker! <laugh>

    Well done Rushmere, I'm sure the look on her face was priceless. I'm kinda glad we ended up with a personal presentation rather than random delivery, must've really topped it off.
    Good work guys.

    Hi guys

    I spoke with Camilla on the phone today.. She was exactly as Rushmere stated.. Could I through this thread pass on my thanks to everyone who contributed towards the bouquet, but a massive thanks tho to Hamps and Rushmere for their combined efforts to ensure that this went ahead..

    Nice one Steve, good to follow up and glad she was happy.

    By the way guys, I have the receipt for the £70 if anyone would like confirmation for the records.

    Pioneer - if you have an Ipswich player subscription she sometimes interviews players so you could see for yourself...
