While We're Talking About The Friday Night Charity Party...

[Doris]

...it seems we are still waiting for some people to cough up the dough for the items they won at last year's charity auction.

C'mon guys, it's been 8 months - near as damnit - and as I'm getting tired of chasing JPC to see where we're at with collecting the final monies I'm chasing you directly.  We need this money to be in the charity fund bank account asap so I can present the cheques Paddy made for us to the relevant charities and get the photos in time to put them in this year's guide.

We also need to start thinking about how the chairty fund will work this year and which charites we will support.  I'll sort out a separate post for that in a few days.

In the meantime, those of you who still owe get the money to me...please!

Yours in frustration

Eight months?

Name and shame Doris, name and shame

Quite right.  Come on you guilty people.

Some people are just not good at paying things in time, like me (sorry Marius, I know... I really need to pay up soon)

Thank goodness I didn't buy anything at the auction

[Doris]

I will not name and shame as:

Firstly I don't have the list
and
Secondly I know some people have been on holiday, and that they are now working on getting a cheque (you know who you are  )

Additionally, JPC has just contacted me to say that as far as he is aware all other monies are paid, which is truly great to hear. 

Take note Guys n Gals - I will not be so tolerant this year.

PS:  I should have a mini rant more often.  I feel much better.

On holiday since June 2007?  I want that job....

I think you should give a definate time scale on naming and shaming, say 2 weeks and thats it, publish them. It's just not on to be a hero on the night and then bunking off, just not cricket chaps!!!!  (or chappeses)

You had to mention cricket didn't you?  On the day that NZ got a good old fashionsed arse kicking off the Poms in the first 20/20 of the tour.

I agree with Ian, 2 weeks the name them.

Oh dear, and there she was feeling all better after her rant.  Now you've upset her again....and she says she's not going to be as tolerant this year...

Being a complete ignoramus when it comes to Cricket I claim innocence, however I might just have to bid on something this year and hold off payment until I have been disciplined fully and justly by Miss Doris the Dominator. 

[Robspot]

I'm sure she would provide that service anyway for a small fee

Uh oh, looks like my secret's out.  May as well bring the whips, chains and stilettoes with me this year then.

Grand - that'll give me a sporting chance of recognising you, having failed initially last year, on account of the bizarre hair style and colouring....   not to mention darkness and alcohol consumption....

Just to give you a sporting chance I'll probably be going with the same bizarre hair style and colour this year.
