OK the moment of truth! First a big thank you to all those who have supported the auctions & the 17 members who brought raffle tickets. The Raffle has raised ?215. Auctioned off straight, I thought it might have made ?80-100 but this way we doubled that & were able to involve more members so I think it was a win win situation.

Well tonight's raffle was supervised & drawn by Dave Bevan OIM of the Maersk Curlew. He checked the number of each members tickets matched the list published in prev post. Then we tore up the sheets into individual tickets (the reason you can see numbers on the tickets is because we were hiding the names on the backs) & then he drew the two winning tickets.Falklands Raffle.2012.08.29.IMG_1872.jpg

The first to be drawn & winner of the Cohiba & Monte DC's & the charming silver ashtray was Pedro, many congr's mate, I really hope you enjoy them & please don't forgot to post a review in due course.

The second ticket drawn for the runners up prize of a pewter tankard & bakerlite cigar case was BFG84. Again congrat's, hope you find both useful.Falklands Raffle.2012.08.29.IMG_1873.jpg

Will the winners please pm me their addy's so I can post them tomorrow from Aberdeen. I'll send the 1st SD & the 2nd 1st class, so you should have them by Monday.
PS I had to give Dave a Cohiba Lancerous 2o01 for his services, some guys just don't get this charity thing!

Just to tidy up this thread, I received the last two outstanding monies, thanks for that & today I sent the money (after postage) to Combat Stress. I'll publish their letter of receipt & give total amount raised next trip.
