| Spider, only just seen this, thank you thank you, Bringing Ismail, may not be psossible. due to what is happening at the moment, with test etc. Also he lives a long way away, and I rely on my interpreter to help. But rest assured we will be there, and if you want, I will sort music, DJ, Karaoke ,Cabaret whatever you require. My Wife Jan is used to dealing with raffles, so if you need any help with that, just let us know. what a wonderful community spirit. |

| Ok I have a fantastic idea, wait for this, I have been given a £1000 , by an anonymous donor, I do not even know this very big hearted Gentleman, How about if we sold 250 raffle tickets on the day, at just 25 TL per ticket and 1 lucky winner walks away with a grand stg. That is a fantastic prize and good odds Or I could start selling tickets before hand |

| WOW..WOW..what great news and yes a very good idea..and a good idea to to sell the tickets before hand too..but i think we should stipulate that they need to attend the afternoon..or perhaps sell enough with their contact details and Cyprus today could hand the dosh over..Thank you so very very much to the anonymous donor what a star this is going to help no end WOW.. )) Spider,X |

| Somebody told me about this but coulldn't remember the name of the thread and it has taken ages to find it. Might I respectfully suggest that you start a new thread under a more meaningful name if you hope to attract more people. "O.K. I Will do it..Please Help all you can" doesn't really tell the story. Unfortunately I have other plans but the very best of luck. |

Spider you can pick the days never mind a rain dance we are going to need a bloody miracle to bring the temperature down! |
