Hi Jane,

Recently - well, about four years ago! - for our pearl wedding anniversary,
we asked for just cards, as we have all the household equipment that we are
ever likely to need, and asked people to donate the money they would have
spent on presents to the Sarah Matheson Trust.   This is a charity which
funds research into Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) which my sister suffered
from for several years, and is a very distressing and terminal condition.
Thankfully, she was spared the awful things which happen in the later
stages, but we all felt that donations to fight this terrible disease were
more appropriate than presents for us!    But - Jenny Hester made and
spangled, in coral, a lovely commemorative bobbin for me, which is another
one I treasure!

Take care - and have a lovely celebratory day on the 6th June.

All best wishes,

Carol
