2016 Auction

Hey Guys it's 2016 - hope you all had a good Christmas and New Year.
On this first day of the new year we are looking forward to a new Kombi Sleepover at the end of May.  
As in past events we have an auction to run which raises money for our chosen charity - Cancer Research.
So with this in mind (while presents and sales still surround us) we would suggest it's never too early to think about auction items!
Consequently, if you have something of interest and you want to advertise it early put it on this thread.
In the past we have had some really great items kindly donated by Forum members.
We will try to auction (or re-circulate) all of your Brazi Bay Bits or possibly camping related items at this year's show.
So doo give it some thought - as we have said, it's all for charity with a little bit of fun on the day too!

Hey Guys
The Admin Team had a good Sleepover planning meeting last night - more details to following due course.
There is only four short months until the event and so much to doo.  
So with this in mind, we thought we would remind you all about the need for auction items for this year's show.
Consequently, if you have something of interest and you want to advertise it early doo put it on this thread.
In the past we have had some really great items kindly donated by Forum members.  
The auction is run to raise money for the Club chosen charity of Cancer Research.
Please doo give it some thought - it's all for charity with hopefully a little bit of fun along the way!

Scooby - how about auctioning a guaranteed spot in the 2017 Calendar for a month of the winning bidder's choice?

Sounds a FAB idea Abs - let's doo it!

Just a gentle reminder guys

I have started a pile of auction things in the garage.

Sounds a good idea, perhaps others could follow in a similar manner

Got a lot of vw mags

Every little helps

Bump

A gentle reminder
Auction items needed for the Sleepover at the end of May
Money raised goes to the club's chosen charity - Cancer Research
We've had some great items in the past, but every little helps - large or small
See what you can doo!

I'll have a look and give them to Tim

All donations gratefully received - thanks

Alison and I went to a Vintage sale in the Dales today and I bargained a stall holder down on this Vintage Spanish Camping Water Flask.





It might suit someone with a red van who wants to add a vintage look or anyone who's into quirky stuff. The seal still works but it's full of pearl barley, because a band have been using it as a percussion instrument! I'll leave it in and anyone who buys it can empty it out if they choose.

Rather than take up time with it on Auction day, I'm offering it for sale here with all proceeds to the Auction charity fund - offers over £10 please - the sale will close at midnight on Wednesday, 13th April - all bids on this thread please.

I'll either bring it along to the Sleepover for cash or will post it out for the postage costs and payment via PayPal.


PS This isn't my special prize which won't be revealed until we get to 30 vans.

Thanks Abs

Who will be the first bidder?

It doesn't look like we're going to get to 30 vans so here's a sneak preview of my Auction prize.

Would suit someone who likes a tipple and travel...

Nice work Abs...

Cool

Thanks Abs. Appreciate the donation.

I'm inclined to disagree with you though. I think we will exceed 30 campers. Folks just haven't booked in yet.

I very much hope you're right, Tim.

Here's another item for the Auction. It's a T Shirt my colleague brought back from his trip to São Paulo.

Size M, it's new and unworn.

Not sure that would ever happen, Marcus. I'd need lyposuction!
