We are pleased to announce the details of the Charity Concert in aid of the N.A.F.I. (New Arm for Ismail) appeal. Ismail is a young boy who tragically lost his arm in an accident here in North Cyprus and this Concert is being held to raise funds for a prosthetic arm for him.

The Concert will be held at the Pia Bella Hotel, Girne on Sunday the 16th of May and starts at 5pm. We are planning to hold this event outside in the beautiful grounds of the hotel. There will be a Raffle on the night, with top prizes kindly donated by local Businesses. Donations can be made throughout the evening.

Music will be provided by various local Artists and the Concert will be compered by Johnie Lee, the founder of the N.A.F.I. appeal.

Please come along and support us and enjoy a wonderful evening of top entertainment.

Get a taste of what's happening in the concert by listening to Maggie White's programme on ADA FM (96.3 FM)tomorrow (Friday ) evening from 6pm 'til 7pm. She will have music from Johnny Lee, Sapphire & Steel, and possibly a tune or two from other artistes taking part in the concert - there is even a rumour that Elvis himself may grace her show with his presence.........................

Unfortunately I will not be able attend due to other commitments but having worked on the Grand Aid Project I know how much hard work has to go into putting something like this on. It seems never ending right up to the moment the show starts. Even while the show is running it is life on the edge but it is all worth it in the end and I hope that all the pitfulls we went through have helped you guys while arranging this event.



All the best to everyone involved.

Entertainment will be outside in the hotel grounds, there is a stage and bar as well as tables and seating. The main inside dining rooms will also be open if you prefer to have your meal in peace!

If you want to eat from the A La' Carte menu, the Maitre' D has asked that you book the meal in order to have a table that can be served from the restaurant. Please call them on 0392 650 5000



Snack Menu, Burgers etc 8 - 10 TL

A La' Carte Starters, pasta, 8 - 12 TL

Lee,

Sorry I couldn't make it Wednesday and I haven't been any help to you so far. I will be in touch soon but 'Women's Health week' ( which is now going to run for 2 weeks) took over my life for the last fortnight and looks to do so for at least another week.

Promise i will be in touch as soon as things calm down here.

Love to Jan.

Very good Radio show last night Maggie and Alan are such good presenters.

Also please tune tonight to BRT TV or BRTK.net at 7.00pm



Lots and lots of good things happening, and next week we will be announcing some of the superb raffle prizes



Need more prizes, even a little bit of small stuff, maybe the odd bottle of wine you have kicking around. or the odd case of Bells or Famous Grouse. Actualy few bottles of Moet would be nice. But we would gladly settle for a couple of bottles of Efes.
