The ACA have been given use of the historic Fishmongers Hall in London for an inaugural fundraising dinner on the 23rd February 2006.

It would be great if we could get sufficient numbers for a Fishing Magic table to support the ACA cause.

The ACA have promised celebrity speakers and an auction.

Cost for a table of 10 would be ?800 which works out at ?80.00 per head.

If anyone is interested then please post and I will try and organise things.

I know it won't be to everyones taste, or indeed budget, but it promises to be a good night for those who can make it.

"The ACA have promised celebrity speakers and an auction." - John Bailey by any chance?

For me, it's the budget.

Nigel,
Provisionally, Yes but that is a Thursday?

You know that my schedule can change easily, I'll keep you informed though.

Hey Graham, your going to have to buy a suit mate.

Or even maybe a tux. Have you seen the dress code for the evening - Fishmongers Hall too. Can't come in a FM baseball cap you know.

Got to outsmart Bailey for goodness sake.

Mind you it shouldn't worry our Graham. A tux will only lighten his wallet by a mere ?3k at Anderson & Sheppard in Savile Row.

Good point Swordsy and I'm not seeking to pressure anyone at all.

Its only feasable for me as I am 25 minutes out of London.

Shame you cant make it as the fun money sounds good!
