Going for Gold

[busybee]

I have come up with an idea to raise a bit more money for the children.  We are starting a gold collection of scrap gold, odd earings, broken chains etc.  We will shortly have a donation box for this in the charity shop.  As Turkey will not scrap 9ct gold one of our committee members will take it back to the UK to sell.  So dig around in your jewellery boxes and if there is anything unwanted that you wish to donate we would be very grateful.

Also for anyone in the UK who has any broken bits and pieces of jewellery or the odd earring etc that isn't worth the effort of cashing in at one of the gold exchange shops, we can provide you with a UK address to post these to.  It might not seem much but a lot of little unwanted  bits and pieces could equal a substantial amount of money towards our children's projects.  Please e-mail me for the address.

Thanks

I found a small broken gold chain at the bottom of my jewellery box today so the collection has started   .

If anyone has any broken or unwanted bits of gold jewellery, no matter how small or broken, please drop them into our charity shop at the Eyna restaurant during opening hours (Mondays and Fridays 11.00 until 2.00 pm) or if you are in UK, please e-mail me and I will give you a postal address to send them to.  Every little bit helps.   Thanks

We have had the promise of 2 gold teeth... Well we did say any gold bits.

I had a gold crown removed last week and the dentist told me it was worthless as the % gold in the crown was very small.

Do you remember Going for Gold with Henry Kelly? There used to be contestants from all over Europe and they had to win about 5000 rounds to get to the final.
