Title: Advent Calendar 2016 (new members welcome)
Post by: Highlander on November 02, 2016, 22:30:39 PM

It’s that time of the year again folks. Members have kindly made this a success since 2013 and I’m really hoping it will be so in 2016.

If you haven’t played before here’s how it works.

I have randomly allocated a number to the 25 days from the first to the twenty-fifth of December.

You choose a number and I put your name against the date.

Behind each door of the calendar is a monetary amount – 10 x £ 5’s, 10 x £10’s, 4 x £ 15’s and 1 x £ 20.

By choosing a number you agree to donate the amount behind the door.

I will open a door each day starting on the first to reveal the amount behind the door and the name of the person who was allocated that day.

There is, of course, absolutely no obligation to take part. But if you have benefited from advice freely given and/or enjoyed reading the Forum please consider taking part.  It is for what a believe to a very good cause - helping kids who have very little.

PS If we fill one calendar, fear not. We will open another.    :)

Thanks Highlander, I had help as a kid from a small local charity so know it goes a long way
Jacqui ( Mrs Stopfordian ) would like 21. If not available random is good, just choose?
Title: Re: Advent Calendar 2016 (new members welcome)

WOW - the generosity of members of this Forum never ceases to amaze me.

Less than 24 hours since we launched this years appeal all 25 numbers have been taken.

Very, very many thanks to all.


I am of course daft enough to think that we can fill another calendar so all numbers 1 to 25 are now available    :)

You most certainly can Staffs126 - it's really nice to have a member who has only just recently registered taking part.

Hopefully it may encourage others.

Many thanks Staffs126  for getting the second calendar under way. :)

Here's hoping we can fill it.

Once again the members of CBF have demonstrated their outstanding generosity and filled two calendars.

I am always conscious of not crossing the line between asking for help and badgering people and I hope that didn't happen this time.

I am extremely grateful to everyone who is taking part  :).

Here are the numbers all you good people have been allocated and the first door(s) will be opened a week on Thursday.

The “honour” of the first doors to be opened goes to two of the nicest ladies you could wish to meet – lotty on calendar 1 and pi55y on calendar 2.

There was £ 10.00 behind door 1 ladies.

Thanks you both for helping the kids.

swindsor - firstly I have to say that scunner did warn me about this very thing.

At the outset I randomly allocated the numbers 1 to 25 against the days from first December to twenty-fifth December.

Number 2 was allocated to the twenty-fifty so if you look at the calendar that's where your name appears.

My apologies - I just thought it would make it more "exciting" if people had to wait to see what day in December they had been allocated :-[ :-[ :-[.
