Thanks to all of you from the Crown Prosecution Service who have made contributions on our justgiving site in the last two weeks in the run up to Christmas. As I've said in earlier posts, it is not our intention to go all out for support untill the new year, but already we have had more than £600 pounds donated without really trying, and it's very encouraging, and thank you all.
Our local pub, the Coach and Horses, have set themselves the challenge of raising £1000 pounds for us. Well, after the showing last week at their anual Christmas draw that will be easy. Having ambushed everyone who came into the pub that night to buy tickets for a raffle in our name, a certain member of staff made sure she made her maximum selling potential. The winner decided that the prize should then be auctioned, and a very generous gesture it was as well. The bidding was slightly on the slow side. Then, and she will remain anonymous for the moment, a member of staff declared that if the bidding went up to £50 she would become the first topless waitress in the county. Needless to say the funds were raised and the Coach and Horses infamy has been assured. In all £157 was raised from the raffle and auction, nearly a third of that due to our barmaids assets!
