SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE BEING AUCTIONED ON CHARITYSTARS FOR PANCREATIC CANCER RESEARCH FUND
London, 05 October, 2015 – This week CharityStars are auctioning a host of items to support Fiorina Pancreatic Cancer Research Fund. Whether your love is travel, food, football, music or Formula One, there is something for everyone. So why not take a look, enjoy an incredible experience and support a charity researching a cure for the terrifying disease. 

The Fiorina Fund is being supported by the Purple Bee Ball so online bidding at www.charitystars.com closes on Thursday 08 October 2015, but live bidding will continue at the Ball on Friday 09 October 2015, when the auctions will officially close. 

Raymond Blanc is one of the world's top chefs and this auction is for the ultimate culinary experience, to enjoy Sunday lunch at renowned restaurant The Mole Inn. Following this the highest bidder and their guest will be whisked off to the famous ‘Le Manoir’ where they will enjoy the delights of the Raymond Blanc Cookery School for an intensive three-hour course, learning to create an inspired, seasonal three-course menu. 

If football is more your thing, there are two incredible lots. The first, an official replica 2014-15 Liverpool shirt signed by former captain Steven Gerrard.

Or if you’re an Arsenal or Sunderland fan, how about watching the match on 05 December 2015 at the Emirates Stadium. The lot includes three tickets to the match seated in the front row and looking along the left penalty box line from the Clock End. 

Although, you may prefer the glamour of the Formula One world, so why not bid for this item with an estimated value of £10,000. This is your chance to watch the Monaco Grand Prix on 28 and 29 May 2016 from a luxury yacht in Zone 1, the best possible position to enjoy the racing. Not only this, Felipe Nasr, the Sauber F1 racing driver, will come on board and meet the highest bidder and their guest on Saturday.

Finally, there are two incredible music items up for auction. The first is two hospitality tickets to see U2 at London’s O2 arena in a client suite on their final night in London. 

The second is for a budding musician. Up for auction is a chance to record a vocal session with Andy Rugg: the former house engineer for Coldplay. The session will take place at one of the finest recording studios in the world, Resident Studios. The highest bidder will be the lead singer and have the opportunity to record four songs, which will then be edited and mixed by Andy Rugg and provided on CD. 

Time is running out on these incredible auctions so get bidding, enjoy an amazing experience and support a well-deserving cause.

I really love re-loving things that either I have or have found to re-love.
When I moved into my last place I had found a very old set of well used Cath Kidston bedding.
I did not think to keep the duvet set but I did keep the pillow cases.
They was past their best but I could not throw them away.
So I sent the Sassy Stitcher the pillow cases and asked her to make my bunting.
My beautifully blue 
Spode crockery given as a gift last year finally saw the light of day.
The oh so lovely 
English Muse inspired me to make my very own porridge.
Fresh fig porridge no less.
I dream of good scrambled eggs don't you?
As a foodista it can be a great feeling cracking and mastering a true food delight.
With Rodda's Cornish clotted cream
chives and a mature cheddar.
Too see about Rodda's follow the link below.
Some inspiration 
The English Muse does it well though!
How come everything taste better when someone else  makes it?
