How The 2019 Fundraiser will work.

[Banjostring]

The important thing @Rob, is that you've realised there's nothing to get upset about. It's very easy for things to escalate inside our own heads when we are under the weather, busy or otherwise occupied. I'm pretty sure no one on the forum would intentionally be having a go at you. I hope things improve for you [emoji1303]

What was the total for last years raffle @Rob?

 

[Rob]

@Mitz £4400 Sah.

 

[Mr Ripple]

I wouldn't worry so much at the moment I'm sure it will pick up soon.
I've noticed this place has been very quiet lately so there's still time.

When all is said and done I'm sure any amount raised however big or small will still make such a huge difference to those in need.

I know the idea was rejected last year and it's too late this year but personally I still think (for future raffles) a fundraising email should go out to all members. Out of the 50,000 members only a very small % would need to respond to make a very substantial difference. Most of those 50k have no idea the raffle even exists. Just my 2 pennies.

 

[Rob]

Whole thing will be totally different as and when another happens.Different format etc so it will be something totally new for you all

Gee..what the flip is going on in here?

It's charity raffle ffs! Let's not forget why this raffle is being held, for gawds sake...think of the kids!!! Who cares who wins what!

I'm only putting in donations for the charity in question....i'm not the slightest bit concerned if i win anything or not!

Think of the kids....and the folks running this....it's their time they're putting in.

@Rob...you're doing a grand job sah...and i'm sorry to hear of your health woes. Speaking as someone who's slowly going evermore deaf and blind...it's no fun wonderin' what the future holds, i tells ya!

So i wish you godspeed with a quick recovery..if indeed whatever malady it is you have..is a quick and cureable one. May it be so.

i doff my hat to you sah!

And to the 'fair rules mob' out there....give he guy a break will ya ffs!

IT'S A CHARITY RAFFLE!

 

[Deaf Vaper]

Sent another donation to you @Rob

 

[Deaf Vaper]

@Rob just had a look at today's raffle tally....and seen that there's someone else with a similar name to me! Deaf Vape? Or is that a mistake...cos you posted the tally this morning..and i've only just sent you my latest donation now!

Unless i've inadvertantly invented a time machine..or forgotten that i'd made a donation this morning!

 

[Rob]

HA!!! No, it was my error. I always add names and edit the day's donations silently, so whilst the original Post for today will show as an example 9.30am, you donation was added as soon as I had checked my PP account just now.
