Oh what a night....thank god Frankie Vallie wasn't one of the sing-a-longs. I think there were 17 teams in all - fantastic turnout. Organised by Zoe Bush and Sarah Heyward, DJs Len and Aaron. Amie Barnie and colleagues from Cornwall Hospice Care attended as well. Thanks to the Band Club for hosting and providing a raffle and quiz prize - check out Helen Farmer rockin' all over the world! Amy was setting off for the Peru Trek the next days as well -good effort. I think the game was won by the Eventual Winners (no, that was their name) from the Valuation Office. I love the fact they would have lost by 1 point had they not bought 10 points for a tenner -yes there was quite a bit of cheating going on! We auctioned some great donated prizes from local businesses and raised a total of £315 from that alone - £120 for 2 First Great Western tickets bought by my fellow trekker Kate Phillips -good girl!, £95 for a lovely DB&B at the Fowey Hotel (Michelle Hammond), £50 for two Scillonian tickets (Sean from the Band Club) and £50 from Irene of the Polgooth Posse who got caught out trying to up the bids for 2 Cornwall Spa hotel prizes and won them at £50 (hasn't paid yet!). £100 from the thirsty buckets on the bar, £311 from entrance fees, Jokers, raffle tickets (loads of good prizes) and general extortion. A Grand total of.......£726 astounding effort. Thank you everyone!!
