Hey, I know thiss't stricly proper banter but need a hand, You migh of seen our little tall ship out bombing around at 3.5 knots around the solent. I'm a volunteer for a small sailing charity: The Little Brig Sailing Trust. (LBST) and we need a favour: LBST gives children of all abilities, able bodied and disabled, the chance to escape onto the water. The LBST currently operates the worlds smallest operational tall ship, Bob Allen, but is wanting to finish teh build of a second, Caroline Allen. We need your help. LBST has got through to the finals of People Millions Lottery grant and need people to vote in. PLease call the number below, it only costs 10p a call, takes less than 6 seconds and you can vote 10 times, that's just £1 and 60 seconds. Number: 0871 626 88 81 If we get enough votes we'll win £50,000 and the second tall ship could soon be terrorising the coast of britain as we plan to sail her round britain in 2010. Thank you veyr much and please do phone in and vote, Als Boden Voluntery Little Brig Skipper http://www.littlebrig.com/ - Little brig website: click here http://www.littlebrig.com/ - www.littlebrig.com |
