Nicola from Solo Hair on Townhead, Kirkintilloch has given us a £15 voucher to include as one of our Raffle prizes.
This is where Cathy has her hair cut and I know she is hard to please, so they must be OK!
I also did a quick search on Google as I was writing this and came across this lovely review “Great hair cut I got from Nicola, best wee hairdresser in Kirkintilloch”
So if you buy some Raffle tickets at Memory Fest ’16 on 1st May, you could be their next satisfied customer!
Who hasn’t tried this wonderful place in the heart of Kirkintilloch? Cathy is always in there and can’t say enough about the quality of food and service.
Offering some of the best coffees in Kirkintilloch, made by their trained Baristas, freshly made Sandwiches (made from bread baked daily on our premises), Baguettes, Paninis, Bagels, Jacket Potatoes with delicious fillings, home made Soup, wonderful hand made Cakes & Tray Bakes and extra large Scones, in a friendly and relaxed environment, 75 has become a rendezvous for locals and tourists alike, desperate for good food & great coffee in Kirkintilloch.
Well, now you could try it using a £10 gift voucher if you are the lucky winner on May 1st at Memory Fest. Look at the prices though, even if you don’t win, why not pop in for a coffee anyway?
Thanks Food@75 for supporting our Memory Fest ’16 event.
No, its OK, we haven’t made a typo, we did actually mean to title this article Mugstock 2016!
You see, the organisers of this festival of music and merriment known as Mugstock 2016 have very kindly provided us with not one but two weekend tickets to their event which takes place on another Bank Holiday, 29-31 July 2016. This is a huge prize, each ticket has a face value of £75.
The image to the right shows some of the stats from last year and 2016 is set to be even bigger!
So you can still come to our Memory Fest ’16, which is taking place on this next Bank Holiday Sunday and, if you are lucky whilst you are there you can win these tickets to go to Mugstock 2016 as well!
Even if you don’t win the tickets (and only one person can win) it is seriously worth going to Mugstock for a weekend of great entertainment, check out their ticket prices.
…. Hairy Men!
Yes, you read that correctly, we need three very hairy men that are going to be willing to have a strip torn off (well several actually) at our Memory Fest event at Club Bliss on 1 May 2016.
Do you fit the bill? Do you know someone that would be willing to help us out? Come on, its all in a good cause, its for Chairiteee! We thought we had someone already but Monkey has refused to do it at the last minute!
Hairy Chest or Hairy Back, apparently either one would be suitable for Claire to work on. Claire works at Desiree’s Nails, Tanning, Hair & Beauty and is giving up her time and providing her experience to make sure everything is carried out safely.
Send us a message if you are up for it, first come, first served (unless a really hairy bloke comes along that we could make more money out of!).
Hello, Monkey here again! You might have seen me earlier, I’m still looking for a name, one of you lucky people coming along to the Memory Fest event is going to choose one for me.
In the meantime, I am just lounging around and waiting and waiting.
I wonder what my name will be, I hope it’s something sexy. ‘Cos I am sexy, don’t you think? Go on, admit it, you think I am don’t you?
By the way, did you know? As well as the the £42 that the person who picks my name gets … they also get to take me home with them too. Can you believe that? I can’t wait to see where I will be living. I hope it’s somewhere nice, with someone nice.
Hope you’ve bought your tickets, have you bought them? They are available you know. Cathy and Stephen are selling them. Claire and Mo have got some to sell. Lisa is also selling them and Carol, nearly forgot about Carol (how could I forget about Carol?). Oh, you can also buy them at Bar Bliss too, and on-line. Loads of places, so you really have no excuse .. remember you have to be there to be in with a chance of taking me home!
Well, I’m off to bed now. It’s tiring all this hanging around upside down. See you soon!
As I teased on Facebook earlier this week, we can now confirm that Memory Fest have been given a fantastic item to help us raise more money for our chosen charities, Dementia UK and Alzheimer Scotland.
BLG Video & Audio Productions, the people that will be filming our event, have donated one of their Wedding Packages. Not just any one of them though, their top package! The Gold Package is valued at £850 and is described as the package to choose if ‘you require every possible moment of your special day captured‘ – have a look at their website for full details (unfortunately the offer is only available to ceremonies taking place in Scotland and the North of England)
This is an amazing opportunity for a lucky couple to obtain a fantastic memento of their special day and help our great cause at the same time.
From today until 12 noon on 1st May 2016 you will be able to bid by email to win this fabulous gift. We have set up a special email address, weddingvideo@memoryfest.co.uk for you to use and we will monitor this address for the next couple of weeks to see what bids we receive. You can also make a bid on the evening of the event at Club Bliss between 7:30 pm and around 10 pm when we will make the announcement to let you know who the highest bidder has been and who has won this auction.
SPECIAL NOTE: Realising that not everyone will be getting married or will know someone getting married then BLG Video & Audio Productions will consider substituting this offer for the production of a Music Video for a Band or Solo artist, just mention this preference when you submit your bid by email or on the night at the event.
If you prefer to send you bid using the form below, then please do – you can enter as many times as you want between now and the closing date, the highest bid will be the one that wins!
Entry is free, however if you would like to leave a token donation, perhaps you could do this on our Just Giving page?

Do you fancy joining an exercise class to help improve your fitness and to get you in shape? Well, our latest Raffle prize donation will give you the chance to try a wide range of exercise classes at varying times suited to different fitness levels.
Thanks to some kind words from our good friend, Seb, Enterprise Health and Fitness in Kirkintilloch have provided Memory Fest with two vouchers, each for one month’s free membership for either their Gym or their Classes.
No matter what fitness level you are, they have a wide range of equipment and services tailored to get you results, whether it’s cardio on treadmills, bikes or x-trainers or bodybuilding.
Just a quick thank you to our premier sponsors, Home Instead Senior Care for the item they have posted on their website, this week.
It’s great to see Memory Fest being mentioned in different places. If you have a website, we would be very grateful if you could give us a mention and plug the event for us.
Don’t forget to let us know so we can thank you too and include a link to all of our other supporters.
Well, what an exciting afternoon with BLG Video and Audio Productions making our very first Infomercial. These are the guys that are going to be filming Memory Fest ’16 on 1st May 2016 at Club Bliss, Kirkintilloch, Scotland.
Richard was very professional and we are really pleased with the results. We hope you are too, and that you will help us to share it far and wide to get the word out about our event.
Thanks to Kenwil Print Ltd for working with us to produce our posters, flyers and tickets! We collected them yesterday and are very pleased with them.
Cathy, Lisa and I will be distributing them around the place over the next few days – if you would like to display one for us, just get in touch and we will try to get one to you as soon as possible.
We can also send you an image of the poster if you would like to promote Memory Fest ’16 (in partnership with Home Instead Senior Care) on your own website or social media sites (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, etc) – let’s see how far we can get this information! We know people in New Zealand, Australia, America, Canada, Spain, sure there must be other places too.
Tickets are available to purchase now at the Early Bird price of only £5 each (entry on the night will be £7.50 if we haven’t already sold out by then!).
Remember, just because you can’t get to the event here in Scotland, you can still support us through sharing and possibly, if you are able, through our Just Giving page.
