I am sure you are all aware that Comic Relief is now just a couple of weeks away. Here in the Fantastic Fireworks office we have been racking our brains to try to think of something we can all do that is not only good fun, but will raise a nice tidy sum for this brilliant cause. Finally we reached our decison, and I’m sure you will all on be tenterhooks as I reveal that our fabulous FF fundraising plan for 2009 is... an ‘Auction of Promises’.
So, we are asking all our office staff - plus any generous and willing Firers - to think of a ‘promise’ they can offer up for our big Comic Relief auction. This could be a skill or talent you could hire out (i.e. cookery, cake making, party planning), a lesson you could give (sports, languages, music, dancing), or a service you could offer to the highest bidder (pet sitting, car washing, gardening, to name but a few).

From Jon – an afternoon out on his canal boat, gliding through the glorious English countryside!
From David – a unique pop art portrait of you or a loved one!
And from Ian – a balloon animal of your choice!!*
If you wish to take part and offer a ‘promise’ for the auction please email me ASAP. The auction will be open to bids from our extended FF Facebook family as well as us lovely bods in the office. Once all the 'promises' are in I will then open up the auction for bidding, so please keep an eye on this blog or on our Facebook page for updates.
