30th July 2005 Paty in the Pond
Well then, what a night. It's been hailed a success. around 250-300 people passed through the gates and raised over £700, after the cost of running it all makes the profit stand at a very healthy £435 which will sort out a few kids that need help.
Gold thanks to Dave on the BBQ, you would not believe how well this dude did. He ended up scoring a new job out of his voluntary stint and I owe him big time. Same to Jenny Ricketts who I now brand her as my thusaurus (probably spelt that wrong too!) she does all the press and promo stuff then works her ass off on the night doing as I ask to, which makes her a kick ass part of the team.
Silver thanks to Hannah for doing the mailing list, helping with food and setting up. David Phillips for helping if not doing all the packing up at the end of the night aswell as driving down from Derby and back (cheers dude) All the bands for playing for free and helping me out when i needed them. Scott for doing the photo's (please send them to me dude) and Matt Bishop and Dom for letting me take over the place.
Bronze thanks to Sam for selling CD's...sorry CD. (hee hee) and Pete Sawyer and Sam Smith for raisng that little bit extra by diving into the pond, although sam had some cuts and bruises due to the fact he didn't think the water was very shallow, ouch!
BIG THANKS to everyone who came, the rain didn't put too many folk off and those who stayed in because they didn't want to get there shoes wet can kick my ass and give ten bucks to a charity of thier choice or i'm gonna mug you and take it off you...be scared!! Oooohhh
