More money for the bombeiros…
In addition to the €400 raised for the bombeiros at our Christmas Dinner, the 2 bowlers Graham and Bob finished their 24-hour marathon bowl at 7 am this morning.
In addition, the EAWF cycling group managed to raise more than €350 at The Old Barrel last night! A special thanks to Clive, Lorraine and all their customers for their generosity.
We have now raised enough for a onboard computer for one of the Tavira engines.
