£110.00 raised for the Ben Bosworth memorial fund.

The 2006 VW show season kicked off in style with the Bus-types show at the Oswestry showground in Shropshire on the 21/22/23 of April. Jinx (Jeremy mansell) thought it would be a great idea to put two weekend tickets up for auction on the Midlands online community, www.volkstorque.co.uk to raise so money for the Ben Bosworth memorial fund. So with the tickets at the ready and a starting bid of £22.00, we let the good people of the forum bid.

After nearly a week of bids the tickets went to the owner of volkstorque Roadrunna, for a wonderful amount of £40.00. This was not the end of the fund raiser. We had three £10 donations from three active users off the forum, ol bluey, the girl wiv no bug and me (marmite_on_toast). We also had an anonymous donation of £40.00 matching the amount the tickets went for.
The tickets where handed over to Roadrunna at the show. We did get a picture of him but it’s not a good idea to show them!

On behalf of the Ben Bosworth memorial fund I would like to thank the following people for donating; Jinx, ol bluey and the Girl wiv no bug and myself!!, Roadrunna and to the anonymous donator. You are all stars.

Thank you,

Danny.
