Title: Grand National Sweepstake 2013
Post by: Highlander on March 10, 2013, 14:43:38 PM
We managed to have some fun with this last year so I thought we could do the same again this year.

The way it works is that I will allocate the runners with a number randomly.

Members who want to participate simply pick the number(s) between 1 and 40 they want. I then publish the list of the runners and the CBF member whose number corresponds to them just before the race.

Unfortunately due to inflation the price of a horse has risen to £ 3.00. Fortunately the same inflationary pressures have not affected the prize will still be to the value of £ 20.00.

It's not too early to pick your number - book early to avoid disappointment.

Thank you very much sokak91 - 22 us all yours.

Lotty - thank you for your kind offer of even more help. There are no "rules" with this. All we have to do is allocate all of the numbers so we can help the kids.

So if you don't mind, I'll ask someone esle to take 31 and/or 39 and in the hopefully hugely unlikely event that no-one takes up the baton then you can certainly have them. Thanks

Post by: Highlander on March 15, 2013, 22:47:51 PM
Just a thought, if I may.

It's been a year since we "successfully" ran this. I don't know how many new members we have had in that period but what I do know is that it would be nice if some of those new members would consider joining us with this.

OK nobody panic (except me of course)

faymoore - I cannot give you 40 because heather07 picked it very early on.

So - I'll give Sue 39 instead and that will take up lotty's "extra" number.

Liz101 - the numbers left are 24, 27, 29, 30, 33, 34, 35 and 37 (I think :-[)

It appears that the horses are number 1 to 40 by the weight they have to carry with number 1 being allocated to the top weight.

I don't suppose it matters if I pick the numbers randomly or wait (hehe) for the names.

I plan to draw the numbers tonight but I'll hang on till the names come out before letting members know who they have.

I have just received a message for Jacqui asking that her winnings be donated to the 3 C's.

This will be no surprise to those who know how much Jacqui does for the charity.

It is nonetheless a lovely gesture.

Thanks so much Jacqui ;D

Thank you H, for organising the sweepstake and to everyone who supported it by taking part.  Also a big thanks to Jacqui for her generous gesture in donating her winnings to our charity.

The children are certainly the winners - thanks everyone   :)
