The fast
moving show was compared by the one and only Mr Norman Vernon and
starred the legendary Maisie Trollette with the inimitable Dolly John
and Lucy Lastik.
Following the
spectacular show the start of the charity fundraising commenced. A
raffle was held with prizes donated by Jim of Ambiance, Oscars,
Panorama/Funny Boys, Cafe Royale, Tony ex White Night and Copa Showbar.
This was
followed by an auction featuring Classic Wines, Vintage Ports and many
other items.
Maisie
Trollette then presented David and Vic of Thais4Life with 100,000 baht
for Jing Jai Orphanage raised in UK by Maisie, Jason, Davinia, Jo
Frances and friends in Brighton.
David of
Oscars then took to the stage to announce the result of the Sponsored
Diet which has been going on for the last 14 weeks. In total David and
Barry lost 25 kilos raising from sponsors, once all money is collected,
the staggering sum of 180,000 baht. Thanks to all the sponsors but in
particular Jim of Ambiance, Peter and Glenn of Copa showbar and Lazlo
and James.
Next was the
draw for the gold for which only 50 tickets were sold at 1000 baht each
. The 2 prizes were a King's Limited Edition 50th Anniversary 22 carat
gold coin in gold mount worth in excess of 30,000 baht donated by John
from Hawaii and a half baht gold ring donated by Ken from Sydney. The
main prize was won by our very own Mick of Le Café Royale and Johnny
from Ireland won the ring.
The evening
rounded off with three Oscars being presented to three winners who were
not here for the Pattaya Oscars held earlier in the year. Receiving the
Oscars were Mr Norman Vernon, Michael Burchall and Mick from Le Café
Royale.
A splendid
evening and in total 376,000 baht is now designated for local
charities.
Special thanks must go to:
David and Peter of Oscars, Graham and Wut, Printer Graham, Norman
Vernon, John from Hawaii Ken from Sydney, Maisie, Dolly John and Lucy
