3rd Anniversary Draw:

The draw was an entertaining event, people began to arrive at around 6pm for drinks, nibbles and to buy tickets. It didn't take long for the shop to fill up, but the intimate size did encourage people to interact. The weather was good to us, the mornings rain gave way to a warm dry evening allowing the spread of the ticket holders to the outdoors.

Internet ticket sales were suspended at 6pm and final sales rounded up at 7pm in order to get the duplicates ready for the draw. At around 7.30pm the draw began and 9 prizes were given away. Disappointingly for those who turned out for the draw, nobody present won a prize. The prize winners have been posted on the web page as well as the film of the draw taking place.

Many thanks to all those who participated and supported this event.
