A barmaid who asked generous strangers to pay for her flight to Canada so she can surprise her mother who she hadn't seen for almost a year has already met her target.
Nicole Fennelly, 22, launched a GoFundMe page on Monday to raise £400 to pay for a return flight to visit her mother and two sisters in February - and she's already received £464.
Ms Fennelly and her family moved across the Atlantic from Liverpool in 2012, but she decided to move back home alone after the death of her grandmother in January.

Ten months on, the 22-year-old said she misses her mother and wants to fly to Canada to spend two weeks with her family.
Ms Fennelly has been working overtime in an attempt to afford the trip, but said she was struggling to get the money together for the flight.
The barmaid has pledged to refund all the money if she doesn't manage to book a flight.
She said: 'I was really depressed in Canada and always wanted to come back to Liverpool.
'And in January when my nan died I just felt like I needed to be back in my hometown.

'I did it all so fast, without thinking of the consequences, but I just really miss my mum and my two sisters and I want to see them for Christmas.'
Ms Fennelly hopes to travel across the Atlantic in February as she is unable to get time away from work in December.
She said her mother, who struggles with mental health issues, keeps asking her to 'come home for Christmas.'
'I am doing every night shift I can to save money but the prices go up this time of year so I want to try and book in the next few weeks,' Ms Fennelly said.
'I can't explain what it would mean to me to see her. Not seeing your mum for this long, is so difficult.'
Ms Fennelly said her mother cares for her younger sister who has a disability and 'deserves something nice to happen to her.'
She said: 'My mum is a hero. She doesn't know I am trying to get out there and she would literally sob if I managed to get over there.
'I think if it was to happen I would message my stepdad and get his help with it to keep it a surprise.
'I've been thinking about how I would do it. She has no idea I am thinking about going out there.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
