Ok so what’s this and what are we all about I hear you ask?
Well, we have come up with a magical event called 'A Thousand Fishes' (Yes; we know that it should be Fish but we think that this sounds better!).
Anyhow we have over one thousand fishy wind socks that will be displayed within and around our town of St Austell, in sunny Cornwall between 1st and 31st August.
This is a charity fund raising event that we are holding so we need you to dig deep into your pockets and purchase or sponsor some of our magical fish so that this intern can help transform the lives of some very special people.
This year we are dedicating the funds to three local charities, The Children’s Hospice South West, The Mount Edgcumbe Hospice and the Merlin MS Centre all of which are well worthy and dedicated charities who work tirelessly to giving care and support to very poorly children and adults. I think that we all know of someone that has, or is currently affected for which these charities have provided essential help and support. To Read more about these charities then please visit our charities page in the top tab.
WHY THE FISH ?
Well why not... The Fish story so far (it’s really really real in my head!!!)
.............................. the story so far is that a little boy sat on the harbour side on a grey a gloomy day in St Austell Bay. He was so sad because everyone around him was also sad and gloomy so this made him sad too. (Now excuse me for any spelling or grammar mistakes but I never said that I was a writer and I’m sure that there’s a reason for that) Anyhow…......... So as he sat on the harbour side he started to cry and as he did so his tears fell into the sea. What the little boy didn’t see was a sudden flash of colour within the water beneath his feet. This was a magical fishy that had swam into the harbour by accident and had never seen or felt such a sad tear ever before, as the little fishy had never come across such a feeling he decided to take this back to his home. So this little magical fishy took hold of the tear and swam a million miles out to sea where there were thousands and thousands of magical fishies............ well to cut a long story very short as I've not yet finished it.............. all of these fishes swam to St Austell Bay, they swam in the air and they swam in the breeze to set every one free of all their sadness...... well ok not sure where I am going with this but I think that you get the idea................ now I have part written a poem as well but I will send it to you at a later date in case you all fall asleep on me!
Ok, so I am now 'Britain’s Best Salesman' (well let’s face it, I’m never going to become Britain's best storyteller!) and you want to become a fishy or, better still you, your family and friends want to become many fishies, so what do you need to do before I finish my poem, book and sell the writes to the movie:
