Posted as requested by Gordon Collins (Lincolnshire RO):

Dear Sir,
My name is Linda and I live in Kirton, near Boston. My daughter will be 16year old next week and I really need your help to make the day special for her.
She loves porsches and takes pictures of them if she gets close enough.
I'm looking for someone that will be kind enough to drive her in their porsche from Kirton to her 16th birthday party in Boston. The journey is about 3miles and should take around 10mins.
I've tried hiring, but no one hires out such beautiful machines. Then I thought that maybe someone else who loves porsches won't mind showing off their car and helping us at the same time.
I want to make a big deal for my daughter's birthday because she has been ill on and off for 3years. In April 2007, she had a cold, then sinusitis, so we thought. Within a few days, she couldn't walk and or go to school.
Numerous tests later, we were told it's all in her head. She was still ill. Fortunately for us, someone suggested Queens medical centre in Nottingham and we finally got a diagnosis of POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardic syndrome). We'd never heard of it but were glad that someone knew it. Things have been difficult for all of us, with Esther fainting frequently and house bound. Finally we're beginning to see the promised improvement. She's better. Still faints occasionally, but not daily like before.
I'm just so happy that she is still here with us and I want to make her day special. I will pay for petrol and your time too. I really want to do something great for her.
PLEASE IF YOU KNOW ANY OF YOUR MEMBERS THAT CAN HELP, I'll be eternally grateful.
The party is on Saturday Nov 20th at 6.30pm.
I can be contacted via email or 07780508415.
If you want to check up on my family, I'll give you work numbers to call if you wish.
Thanks.

Linda

Nobody in Lincs' region on the board? Maybe it's because it's November. At that time it will also be dark. :|

Nice one guys. Pleased to see this got sorted out.

Just make sure they haven't had too much jelly and ice cream before the ride.
