susiepink and lotty - your donations both safely received.

Thank you so much for taking part ladies.   

My sincere apologies for not including MSB in my thanks.

Nearing the end of your marathon effort John. ?  Well done   

Thanks kevins3 (and Anne and bluwise) but in all seriousness, sitting with a laptop is quite easy when compared to setting up 220 stalls in the pouring rain and making sure that everything runs smoothly on the day of the Fayre.

No problem John. Always happy to help such a worthy cause.
Happy New Year to you and Brenda.
Keep up the good work.

Even easier to do nothing H - you most definitely deserve the thanks especially as this last fundraiser was just one of many.

If I could ask a big favour of those kind people who chose a number but do not come on here as often as I do.

Could you let we know which method to donate you are going to use (paypal, cash or in Turkey) and that will let me get the paypal money sent and hopefully take advantage of the exchange rate.

Many thanks in advance

Nope - my Paypal account is a lost cause - it will not accept my new card!

Anyway, I have sent the monies to you John using my husband's Paypal account and hope that you have received them. Do let me know please.

What a very wonderful thing you have done by organising this Advent Calendar fund raising, H.

It is such an excellent way to allow us to be able to show our appreciation of the amazing thing that is CBF!

Happy New Year to you and your family, H and to everyone at CBF Towers and the proletariat of Calis Beach Forumland. Rock on 2014.

Just caught up with this John and I am thrilled to hear the grand total. You are far too modest but you must pat yourself on the back on this one. I salute you on this brilliant fund raiser for your tine and commitment.  You will have made a lot of children very hsppy. Well done sir x x

With a great deal of help from scunner, we transferred all but £ 15 of the money raised in the UK today.

We did this to try and take maximum advantage of the current exchange rate.

I have to tell you, that with the money hopefully donated directly in Turkey, and due to more people's amazing generosity, that the final total was not £ 656.00 but £ 706.00.

Many thanks to you all for helping the kids.
