YDC 96 Pimp Thread - St. Clare's Hospice 24th-28th February 2012

[Armstrongs]

Well, here we are again....yaaaaay!!

Today sees the start of the YDC 96 charity auctions.....
& i'll start the proceedings with a quick reminder of what we're all about.

24th – 28th February 2012

YDC charity auctions are held by the international eBid membership every month.
Our main aim is to raise as much money as we can, and have lots of fun along the way!
At the same time, we have a “friendly” competition to see which single auction raises the highest amount. The winning seller in this competition chooses which good cause to nominate for the following month’s competition.

As the winner of YDC95, meebo1 has chosen:

St. Clare's Hospice

as this month’s nominated charity.

Please come and join us with YDC96, everyone is welcome and -

YOUR DONATION COUNTS!

I have a modest selection of green ticks so far. Just because I'm going to work, don't think you can all get sneaky... I have an internet connection and I'm not afraid to use it.
