Last Few Prizes

Last Few PrizesThanks to Alan and Louise for this latest Raffle prize donation. A lovely bottle of Vodka for some lucky winner to enjoy.

Sure, I should put some disclaimer on here too, something like over 18’s only and drink responsibly, that kind of thing.

Also to Elinor for this Wacky Wobbler! I’m sure this is a collectable and someone will be happy to win this, eiher for themselves or for some DC Comics enthusiast!

What about some Eau de Whatsit? Lovely smelly stuff for someone to win – thanks again to Elinor for this one!

So, what are you waiting for, get along tonight and buy your tickets – only £2 a strip!

 

Look Who Has Made an Appearance!

Cuddly Bear

Cuddly BearIt’s …………….. oh, no, we can’t tell you who it is, can we?

You will have to come along this evening to Memory Fest ’17 to have the chance to guess this Cuddly’s name.

Once again, we will be running this like a ‘football card’. One of our Team will be coming around the tables offering everyone the chance to join in.

For only £2 you can choose one of the 96 names on the card. At the end of the night we will reveal the name and the person who has chosen the correct name will walk away with £42 with remainder of the pot going to our Chosen Charities, Alzheimer Scotland.

Thanks to cousin Irene who kindly donated Miss, Mrs or Mr Cuddly Bear.
