Yesterday I went to a charity lunch for the Scottish Spina Bifida Assocation in Dundee. Unfortunately I had to leave early as all the medication I have been on this last week has made me feel quite sick and very drowsy. However I had promised to go and glad I made an effort. The afternoon included a champagne reception, nice lunch, live entertainment, raffle, Auction and even "butlers in the buff" ;-0 The entire event was a great success raising £4800 for SSBA but I couldn't believe the prize of raffle tickets (£10 for 1 or £20 for 3!) and the amount people were prepared to bid in the Auction. I know it's for a great cause and it seemed people were happy to pay for it but I had planned to sell my raffle tickets for 50p each or 5 for £2! Maybe I'll have a re-think! Speaking of raffle prizes I have received another 2 kind donations this week:
- A family ticket for Camera Obscura for 2 adults and 2 children. I used to love going here as a child, seeing the optical illusions and the magic gallery. I am sure the lucky winners will have a great day out, many thanks to Tony and his team for this kind donation ;-)
- A £50 voucher towards a trike-tour around Edinburgh with Trike Tours, Scotland. My friend Tracy and I went on this tour a couple of years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it! The lucky winner of this prize receives a fantastic discount on the tour price and I am sure will have an awesome experience!
