I’ll be running a raffle at this year’s Britcon to raise money for Cancer Research UK.

Tickets are just £1 each or £5 for a strip of 5 with all proceeds going to charity.

The draw will be made at the end of the final day - but if you can’t stay until the end I will get any prizes won to you somehow.

Hopefully you will agree that there are some great prizes here and it’s for a great cause.

The prizes so far include the following:

• Free entry package with accommodation to Britcon 2011
• Field of Glory Rule Book signed by the authors
• Pro Painted Field of Glory Camp by NYR Old Design
• Flames of War – Pro Painted Britcon 2010 Objective
• Flames of War – Pro Painted Tiger Company by DracoStandard
• Osprey Men-at-Arms ‘A Celebration’
• Warhammer 40K Hammerhead Tau Gunship
• Warhammer 40K Dark Eldar Talos
• Warhammer 40K Tyranid carnifax, ‘Old One Eye’
• 1 litre of Bell’s Whiskey

I hope to see you there!

Cheers

Does this mean I can buy 2 strips for £10? Or do I have to buy 10 individual tickets? What if I only have £7 left after buying cigarettes first?

Bring more money?

Pete

Alas I can't make Britcon but will send £10 with Terry, so count me in for that. Hope I win the right bits ....

Si

That's great - thaks very much Si

Undoubtedly you'll win a copy of the rules signed by the authors...

Not sure I have ever managed to get the other two to sign a copy for me .... could be a good win!

And I could win the item that I donated ....

I love games of chance ... Pete, do I get a reroll?

Pete, are you going to give Steve Tresadern his ticket back????

I'm sorry to hear about Lynda's diagnosis, and wish the lady a swift and full recovery. My step-dad was diagnosed with bladder cancer just before Xmas last year, and is getting treatment at Queen Alex in Pompey.

Pete, how can we ex-pats buy some tickets ?
