Tension mounting - just over 4 hours to go!! Who will win the fantastic prize and at the same time help a fantastic cause!! Will Mrs Guay still be speaking to Guay after 10 o'clock or will there be a late flurry of bidders in the run up to 10!! Thanks to Guay for donating his rod and the day/lesson on the Tay, to Speyghillie for donating a day on the Spey (and to the forum for giving the rod in the first instance). Best of luck to all those hoping to win...lets see what happens!

Excellent - well done to Speyducer (Mike) on a fantastic bid for a fantastic prize (and saves on postage as well!! ) A cracking rod, a day out on Dalguise with Guay plus a 2 hour casting lesson and a day on the Spey with Speyghillie. Victor - what does that take the total to?? Wait until you see what is next !! ;D ;D ;D Thanks everyone again!!

Well done Speyducer. My own favourite bidding technique, lurking and putting a bid in at the end. I notice you bid against yourself at the end, were you nervous of getting gazumped?? That now brings total to £45, 790, although a couple of thousand of that not yet banked. I think I am right in saying that this forum has now raised £1025 so far.
We will be re-starting our major fundraising again shortly, having been working on a strategy this past few weeks.
Thanks again, I hope you enjoy your prize.

Mike, I will acknowledge you in our accounts, and send you a certificate and letter of acknowledgement/ receipt. I will be back in office Wed. Will do it then. VC Victor, I've got all the details via the Scottish Native Woods site, and - it's easier to pay online - now done! Look forward to the breaking in the rod, and will give it a cast or three on the Spey very shortly, and later with Guay. Regards, Mike

Mike your Spey story will have to go along way to beat the Kola yin. I'm looking forward to it and hopefully Jock / Speyghillie will have some input . A big well done to all who participated in the Auction and to Gooey for the endless laughs. Cheers Hornet
