New Year's day Splash
« on: January 07, 2016, 08:51:55 AM »
On the first day of 2016 11 very brave ‘splasher’s’ entered the sea in aid of various charities. The weather was very good to us but had a very cold biting breeze which was not welcomed by the ‘splashers’.
The 11 ‘splashers’ were  Roger Handbury,  Jim Jeffries, Mark Piesch and Joanne Piesch collecting for the 3C’s, Gareth Patten , Desree Sarioglu, Basak Demirci and Pauline Trent, for AA ,Sian Midgeley, Sue Cato and Keith Gallant, for the Kedi  Eve.
There were a variety of costume from various animals to a hippy; the winner of the bottle of wine chosen by Angel from the Nil was Jim Jeffries as the baby. 
We would like to thank all the’ splashers’ for their participation in this annual event which helps to make it a great day. Well done to all of you. We would also like to thank Angel for laying on free hot soup and garlic bread for all the ‘splashers’ and allowing us to us her restaurant for this event.
The fantastic collective amount for the charities was approximately 6000 TL was a brilliant result for the day. Thanks to everyone who attended and supported the ‘splashers’ and donated on the day.
