I am hosting a charity night next week for a little local 4 year old boy, who is fighting cancer. The family need to raise £250.000 to send him to the US for antibody therapy. Some of you locals to me may have heard of the appeal
http://www.familiesagainstneuroblastoma.co.uk/FamiliesAgainstNeuroblastoma_Connor_Whipp.html
The appeal is more so important now, sadly Connor's little friend lost his fight last night:(:(:(
Anyhow,
I have funded so far, purely on donations from local businesses
A venue, comedians, singer/pianist, disco and lots of good raffle prizes.
T's made a donation of £25 for the bufffet and I have £30 in L2S vouchers, which I can use in Iceland, and a couple of apg's totalling £40. I need to make this money stretch to a buffet approx 100 people, although I have yet to sell not nearly as many tickets:eek::eek: and I need to source helium from somewhere:eek::eek:.
I am going to make the buffet myself but am so a fussy eater I would not know what to make and how best to utilise the money I have available.
Could any kind peeps give me some suggestions and point me in directions to vouchers I can print. I was really hoping the price [STRIKE]flop[/STRIKE] I mean drop:D mag would help me this week
Sorry for rambling on, now the event is so close the pressure is getting to me_pale__pale__pale__pale_

Get over to the old style board and the people on there will give you the best advice. I know there are plenty of threads on buffets catering for large numbers. Best of luck on your fund raising.
I know another person on here was a winner of a personalised bean from the Heinz 5 bean quiz, I think it was a canellini if my memory serves me right.
I've just got an email telling me I'm a winner too! I'm getting a personalised red kidney bean. OH couldn't stop laughing but I'm secretly rather chuffed. Now we just need another 3 winners from here to get the set."Sometimes life sucks....but the alternative is unacceptable."0 -

For anyone local this was at S@uthB@nk this morning. Lots of wine - Rose and Red. Couldn't find any Plenty or Toilet Rolls.
They still have loads of the August magazines with the 50p bodyform coupon in.
Will have to catch up later ( or try too) I have a mountain of ironing looking at me and a bigger mountain of washing
