Hey guys - since I've seen the responses on here over the last day or so kinda felt guilty I haven't chipped in more - so happy to say I will throw in $1k to the cause. Now - before I get hit with the saint thing again - I'll be perfectly honest and let you know I'm writing half off it off on tax thanks to the ATO and the charitable donation thing! This kinda thing is better than EBAY and makes you feel a whole lot better too!

Actually - since BA's missus is a bean counter I'll match all donations up to $2k dollar for dollar until Friday 5pm. Soooooo BA - let me know how much I'm up for by then and I'll send it over. Hopefully if this mob get it together I'll be out of pocket $2k! And - for the forum member who is going through this tough time - mate - I hope it gets better and gets sorted. This forum is behind you mate and hopefully this helps a tough situation better!

I think you need legal documents from a solicitor i know when we did a fundraiser for my mrs dad when he had his accident we collected a lot of doh but for everyone that was donating we had to get something written up, one of the prizes was worth 10k. But i'm not entirely sure how it all worked coz i didn't organize it but i'll see if the mrs knows anything about it in the morning.Quote:

Not blowing smoke up my own you know what - but to be honest - even if I can't write it off - all good here. Not made of money - but do have enough in the business to cover it - and like I've said before - hopefully if I am in ever a situation of need then I would like to think it would come back. Mate - I'm just a normal bloke like everyone on here - but when I see a story posted like BA's - well you just gotta muck in and help out yeah? :) Thanks for the comments mate! Appreciate it but just want people to know I am doing this for a good cause - not for the kudos!Quote:

Hey Scotty - when you figure what is needed let me know and I can help cover some of the parts. Also - if you and Mat (nissannewby) are flying down let me know and I will cover the flights....... You might be flying cattle class (or maybe cargo hold) but I'll get you down there!

The next chance i get i'll go have a better look with BA to make a final list!!!Quote:
