My story

 

Merry Christmas from Jen & Greg... ENJOY!!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYNzwRPgLaM

 

Thank you for visiting our Just Giving page!

We are going to be trekking 100km across the Sahara desert for 10 days next February in support of the Scottish Epilepsy Initiative... Jen will be sleeping rough, with no straighteners or mirrors!!  And Greg will have to go without his midnight snacks and Time Team!!  To make things a little tougher we are setting ourselves the challenge of raising double the money – or more!!

 

So show us your money, and we will bring you back some sand! (unless Jen sells that to bring the camels home with her.) Please come along and join in the fun on all fundraising events too!!

 

See you all soon, hopefully with lighter pockets!

About the SEI

The Scottish Epilepsy Initiative supports the 40,000 people living with epilepsy in Scotland. The reality of this illness and the emotional effects it has upon children and adults are barely understood by society, for example exclusion from day to day activities and social scenes, fear of loss of bladder control, not to mention fear of death.

Please help the SEI in its quest to support sufferers all over Scotland.  Please donate now...

Event 3

Enjoy A Night Out With An Old Bag!!

Friday 20th November, 6pm (ABode Hotel, Bath Street)

 

We are going be holding an exclusive handbag swap and Girls Night at the luxury ABode Hotel on Bath street.

How It Works:
Simply bring your entry ticket along with your old hand bag(s) you no longer use/want and you will be given a 'new bag' ticket. You will then be given time to go through the bags on display and mingle with drinks before your ticket number is called for you to go and collect the new bag of your choice. It's the latest way to shop and is becoming increasingly popular in the UK. But remember the earlier you arrive the earlier your number will be called to select your bag - so be sure to get there early to bag the bargain you really want before anyone else does!

The event will be held after work on Friday the 20th of November, starting at 6pm. Tickets cost £15 and need to be bought prior to the event. When you arrive you will be served Sahara sunrise cocktails (until they run dry!), and a buffet will be served by some of the hot young Glasgow Hawks rugby players, before we finish off by auctioning off the clothes from their backs!

An exclusive prize draw will take place - with prizes including:
             - £300 Vidal Sassoon voucher
             - £250 Benefit hamper
             - Lancome hamper
             - Charlotte Naturals hamper
             - Dinner for two and wine in Michael Cains restaurant at abode
             - Luxury weekends away

             - French Connection Belts

 

Then for those who want to keep partying (with the rugby boys) we will head downstairs to the club/bar. I have attached a flier for you to read and share with all your girlfriends. I really hope you can make it, and in case you need further persuasion, I have attached a piccy of some of our lovely gents giving you a taster of what to expect!! (see my photo section)

PS
There will also be a prize draw for the person who sells the most tickets! So get selling!!
