Right let's do the introductions... My name's Lindsey - I am 35 and moved to the UK with my husband and kids 7 years ago... Still go back to Zim whenever we can... Have recently started The Jacaranda Club with a whole lot of Zim mates, which I'm very pleased to see has had it's 'Jacaranda Ball' details posted on this site - thanks very much to whoever posted it! We're fundraising for the pensioners in Zim and hoping to make this Christmas a happy one for them through having a fantastic party!. Thanks to the Admin on this site for providing a great site ... I am pleased to see TCB are also organising Zim 'gatherings' ... I think there are so many of us here in the UK who enjoy a good old Zimbo social and find that there are too few of them happening... Anyway - enough said ... have a great weekend everyone!

Welcome Lindsey :)

If TCB can provide you any extra help for the fund raising, please let us know. I'd suggest talking to Chantillylace who does our newsletter to advertise in there too.
