I used the currency converter in Dashboard. It must have added a little tax to the outcome.

999th post!!

Hey there, everyone! It's post #999 for me!

And we are very near our goal of £1600.... Less than £230 away.....

Big thanks to everyone who has tossed in dollars, quid, Aussie bucks, yen, drachmas, rubles, rupees, and the odd pfennig!!

And apologies to anyone who may have mistaken my enthusiasm for being pushy. That was never the intent.

All good things must come to an end though. And therefore, I will shut this one down at the close of business Friday afternoon. SLO time.

A couple people might be mailing in some donations. Those will be passed along, of course.

When I started this ball rolling, I had no idea of the kind of response we would get. And I have to say, it's been incredible! The EBMM forumite is truly a special breed! Sorry to say, that most other musicians I know would have seen Azzy & Trev's situation and taken a "sucks to be you" attitude. But not you lot. All I did was had an idea. YOU are the ones that have made it happen. And you are the ones who deserve the applause.

And extra special thanks to BP and the EBMM staff for giving us this venue, and generously supporting the cause!

So, here we are. Wednesday morning. And $439 to go.....

Right, I am in for a further $100...... That brings it down to $339.........

Who's with me?

OK Ritchie

Im going to need beths help or someone from the company but I want all who donated no mater what size to get free wonder wipes. Lets make sure we have the addresses and each one will recieve a small cannister of string cleaner fetboard conditoner and instrument care wipes.

THis is just a little gesture from me to recognize how generous all of you are. I also wanted to make this offer at the start but felt it would be better if people got a chance to be rewarded for kindness with no strings attached.

I think we also need a big thankyou to Ritchie for setting it up and getting the big "Save Azzy and Scruffbags balls" ball rolling!!! what a mouthful that was

Three cheers for Rictchie!!

Hip Hip!!!

mmmm.... free wonder wipes

But your idea was a good one, a very good one, Ritchie, and you got it organized and kept it rolling and did the paperwork (always the worst part of any effort).

So my hat's off to you, sir!

Wow BP. That's awesome. Ritchie should be able to get you all of those, as he is the one that received the PayPal and most, if not all, people's PayPal's state their address with the transaction.

And Ritchie, great work getting this done and such.

 

[Psycho Ward]

Who's with me?

Ritchie

Sent ya another PayPal... pal!

 

[Psycho Ward]

Thanks Ritchie for doing this and a big thanks for BP for hosting this and letting him. Good people here, I love all of you!

 

[Beth]

Hang on everyone, let me clean out my PM inbox...

Or better yet, Ritchie, if you have a list of the forum members who donated thus far, send it to me and I'll PM everyone who pitched in and get their addresses. From there I'll work my magic...

 

[mynan]

Thanks to Ritchie for the opportunity and to BP for the gift...

 

[lomky]

Sent a small thing. Awesome job everyone!

 

[AnthonyD]

Very cool, Silver Bear...



Ritchie - a few more $$$ on the way to you - this should wrap this week.



Beth - Sax makes a good point re: Ritchie having our addesses via PayPal. Either way, let us know.

 

[silverburst]

Ritchie -- sent a little bit more. Thanks for putting this together.
