It was a superb night with a huge amount of money raised. Dizzy Jan and Pi55y will no doubt announce the final amount later but I can say it's a record without doubt.

Congratulations must go to our auctioneer George who did a terrific job - he very nearly lost his voice   :)

Sincere thanks to everyone who attended, everyone who donated and everyone who made this a ""special night" to remember.

Most of us are just surfacing, as it was about 2am before we got home : :) Fantastic night, great atmosphere & it looks like we have made a record sum of IRO 12,000tl  :o if everyone coughs up for everything they've bought. A staggering result, thanks to the generosity of all our donors & buyers  ;D

Staggering it most certainly is - huge congratulations to everyone concerned. I'm not sure that we fully realise just how much work has to go into this to achieve such and outstanding result.

Well done again  :)

It was an absolutely amazing nite and I cant believe the genoristy of people, to think we probably topped last year by 3,000TL is awesome.  Sometimes the atmosphere was just electric.  Hope everyone had a good time and will enjoy their promises. A special thankyou to Murat who walked from Olu-Calis and raised an incredible 570TL for us, we even auctioned his t-shirt for 20TL  :) Well done and huge thanks to all our supporters and businesses. Team give yourself a huge pat on the back THE TEAM DID GOOD.  Now give yourself the day off!!!!  some cant I know, cos auction related work will still be going on for the next few days.
