Guest Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Had a brilliant time, in great company. It was lovely to meet Mak, Mr & Mrs Shute,Pete & Ricey for the first time. I still feel a bit drunk, we were drinking raffle prizes until the early hours, will post my photo's up when I can focus a bit better . There was a young lass there from Wales & it was her first time at a soul do. She arrived at the start & stayed until the bitter end & was hardly off the dance floor. I spoke to her at the end & she had loved it. So if she's reading this, good on you, hope to see you out again soon. Mandy, Shute,the dj's & all the people who donated prizes deserve a huge pat on the back. I'm well chuffed with my 100 club tickets, I'm going in December for my birthday. Thanks a million to Sarah for driving, there's no way I could driven this morning Kirstyx Link to comment

It was me with the head stamp!! Luckily managed to sweat most of it off dancing to some great tunes. Thanks from all the Shropshire crowd for a great day out! Keep up the good work with the charity. WELL DONE! P.S. Mandy, when do I get my framed picture (with the detroit records in it) that I won in the raffle? Link to comment

Guest OoohGeorgieBerry Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 I clearly made the right decision turning up for this magnificent event. Arrived about 4pm and all the DJs I witnessed until 1:15am were simply superb playing a wonderful collection of choooons! I was barely off the (fine) dancefloor (even having to break away from the tea time chips at one point to have a dance! ) On top of that it was a great crowd of folk, friendly, welcoming, and all up for a good cause. All in all an excellent night, which made me proud to be a Staffordshire lad. Many thanks to all involved in organising it and putting in their time during the day. A couple of my chums looked a tad rough this morning in the Premier Travel Lodge (no names, no packhorses to quote CJ off Reggie Perrin) but I'm sure it was worth it given we all had such a good time. One of em looked as green as the mushy peas which were donated to the raffle prizes! Those of us who had made an attempt to sober up towards the end of the night were able to manage a hearty breakfast this morning, while others could only face a quiet darkened room haha!! Great to meet up with the Tenby crew, hopefully see you in Longton over Chrimbo for some of Mace's top RnB sounds, or maybe even before at Middleton Civic Allnighter. I took some snaps so hopefully I'll stick em up on this site later. I'm currently enjoying the Gambian SC CD. Niiiiiiiice! Andy Link to comment

Hope the sight of me this morning, didnt put you off your breakfast. Bri told me I looked shocking when I got in too, must have been a dodgy pizza or something Did anyone win the peas?

Guest OoohGeorgieBerry Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 (edited) Kirsty - dodgy pizza my arse. Dodgy gallons of ale and buckets of vino more like! Luckily I'd already eaten breakfast when that "vision" peered out of the darkened room or else I might not have able to... I'm surprised Bri let you into the house My photos from the night are now up on the site at https://www.soul-source.co.uk/index.p...m&album=774 Enjoy!

I got myself all muddled with my photo's, too much alcohol in the system, I've put some in the Piercebridge folder, so the one of you telling me to bugger off is on twice. Any idea how I rectify it, I've asked Bri but he hasnt the fogiest?. One of these days I'll come home & Bri will have changed the locks . On the way home Sarah says she's going to bring out risk assesment forms for me next time Link to comment

Richard Bayley Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 WARNING.....GAY UNICORN NOW ON THE LOOSE IN NORTHAMPTON! Fantastic day, many thanks to all involved in organising and running this - I had a ball (did anybody notice? ). Carl and Maria's spot was about the most fun I've ever had in an hour with my clothes on..... Musical highlights for me were (a) Baz's Dickie Wonder ...CHOOON!, and the Len Barry "Love, Love Love" from Carl. Both new to me, but had an immediate effect. PS Staying at the Travelodge brought back the whole of the Alan Partridge series to me - just wish I had a damaged chocolate orange to give to the staff in the morning. Thanks to SarahC, Ooohgeorgieberry and KirstyM for the driving and good company, to the Shrewsbury crew! Link to comment

Shane Have to say i would have thought an event such as this.. for such a worthy cause.. would have been packed to the rafters with soul sourcers.. but then again it was raining. That only makes the amount of money raised by the great crowd that was there all the more fantastic!! Well done you lot.... when you think about all the great things Pete and Jules will be doing with the money you all raised.... hope you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. BIG BIG well dones to Mandy (top top bird)... Shute (for being such an absolute sweetheart)... the Lagers(for all the great work they're doing out in the Gambia).. so take a bow you two. And of course everyone who was there.... you showed you had more than just soul... you have deep pockets also!! GREAT STUFF Link to comment
