*THANK YOU* everyone .... Daughter says thanks ... if her team wins, £75 goes to Cancer Research ... so I had to help ... well YOU all did.! I'll let you know later ... if they win or not ... doesn't really matter which team wins ... the other team are donating to RSPCC. Not bad for 17 - 25 yr olds ... should be 18 - 25 but daughter isn't 18 till May ...Ssshhhh !! Elaine :-)

**** RESULTS ***** Thanks for adding, I forgot to let you all know the results last night ! (mind you, it was 11.45 when she phoned !!) It was a DRAW in the end. ! SO ... the Landlord of the Queens Head decided ... to equal the kitty and give to one or the other charity ! So £75 went to both Cancer Research and RSPCC. A good night on the whole ! THANKS to everyone ! Elaine :-)
