It is a very good cause, FD raised money for it back in October. I'd love to go, but my pockets aren't that deep at the moment.

Brilliant! Would love to go myself but I've got a few outgoing payments coming up so I doubt I'd be able to. Have fun anyone who does manage to attend though!

Same here! "tickets are one thousand dollars a plate". But yes, a better cause, to say the least.

£100 is not that much for fancy reception, 3 course dinner and even a "quality" raffle.

I'm gonna just watch it on GOP TV.

I work for a company who provide waitresses etc at Cardiff City stadium, but I feel being asked to work for this is too much to hope for! Lucky people who can afford to go.
