Thanks for your help John Sorry mate, I was up all night working on this and actualy had some work to go to today (a nice change). If there is no way to donate via PP (my bad for not asking them when I called about this days ago) You can donate at any Red Cross office in the world. Just nominate that the funds are for the Aussie fire appeal and they will get to where they are needed. Scan the recipt and send it off. Any more problems just Email me at ozfirefund@yahoo.com It sounds like Onze may have the answer. I shall go ask. Col. EDIT: Onze has left the building and I have PM'd him and will get back on this ASAP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trailboss Posted February 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 UPDATE All who have donated as of 05.50 GMT should have had tickets sent. If you have not PM me. We are working on the issue of paying by PP but it doesn't look good ATM. Most of us will have CC anyway. KEEP DONATING! What's 3.3USD? Hardly buys a beer does it? We don't care if you can only afford one ticket or 100.It all makes a difference! Due to the number of book buyers I feel that people are not giving small amounts 'cause they think it won't help. Nonsence! Even 5 bucks makes a difference and is as welcome as 50. Also, the Geeks are now in the lead for total donations! Shurly that's not on? Keep it comming folks, there's a whole swag of prizes our there to be won. See the main post for the start of the auction for the NFL jersey. It's at 50 bucks ATM. The jersey itself is worth 300 and it's signed! Many thanks to all who have donated so far. Give yourselvs a pat on the head. And more of you post here when you do please? It looks like no one is giving! Regards, Col. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KB Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 Amid all the horror of these fires the one thing that we have been blessed with is that our brave men and women fighting them have remained safe. Sadly this has now changed with a firefighter down from Canberra dying from injuries suffered from a falling tree. Tragically the death toll of these fires has now risen to 200 and is expected to rise still further. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trailboss Posted February 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 Big Bump. More prizes!!!!!!!!!!!! Yep, I'l soon to be anounceing some more prizes! For starters WBK has come thru with a boxset for the DJ. That about doubles the value of that prize folks. There's also a Mont Blanc pen from the same great guy as well as another piece TBA. Thanks again Wacko Bird Keeper! Were on our way to two grand but with the combined membership of thirty or forty thousand we can do a hell of a lot better than that! Look at the prize list folks! GIVE! Col. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
