So please do send us art work themed on gorillas/apes etc, rowing and/or the atlantic to help save the Great Apes of Cameroon!!!<br /><br /><strong>Send your art to:</strong> Stacey Coombs 'Pan-Atlantic Mailart Call',<br />St Stephens Out of School Club,<br />St Stephens Infant School,<br />Lansdown Road<br />Kingswood,<br />Bristol,<br />BS15 1XD <br />UNITED KINGDOM<br /><br />If you have any questions do e-mail us at: <a href="mailto:panatlanticmailart@ruth1.e4ward.com">panatlanticmailart@ruth1.e4ward.com</a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8757332276009708072.post-479369991069789462008-01-27T21:02:00.001+00:002008-01-27T21:06:01.589+00:00Chimps, rowing across the atlantic.<div class="flickr-frame"><a title="photo sharing" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/therehn/2222236383/"><img class="flickr-photo" style="WIDTH: 321px; HEIGHT: 324px" height="475" alt="" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2245/2222236383_6216e9e63c.jpg" width="434" /></a><br /><span class="flickr-caption"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/therehn/2222236383/"><span style="font-size:78%;">Chimps, rowing across the atlantic.</span></a><span style="font-size:78%;">, originally uploaded by </span><a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/therehn/"><span style="font-size:78%;">TheRehn</span></a><span style="font-size:78%;">.</span></span></div><p class="flickr-yourcomment">Ok this may not technically count as mailart (as I didn't mail it to myself!), but this is my contribution.</p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
