Is that a raffle for charity? I've spent a fortune buying tickets for my wife to watch Take That and/or Gary Barlow over the years Shame he's not on our Arvia cruise! Would be buying a few raffle tickets I imagine (On second thoughts thats saved me some raffle ticket money!!)

Neecy1 Posted January 25, 2023 #3 Share Posted January 25, 2023 We saw him on Iona in November. He was fantastic. It is for charity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TigerB Posted January 25, 2023 #5 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Gary Barlow, does a lot for charadee but doesn't like to talk about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy v Posted January 25, 2023 #6 Share Posted January 25, 2023 I also got an email. I will definitely make a donation to an excellent charity and maybe get seats. It isn't compulsory so if you don't want to see the show or donate you don't need to. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithhutch Posted January 25, 2023 Author #7 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Yes I will be buying tickets too,it’s just I haven’t heard of this system to have the chance of watching him…totally agree with it though.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy afloat Posted January 25, 2023 #8 Share Posted January 25, 2023 We saw him on Iona in November on the second of the two cruises he was on. It's £10 each to enter, and you can add the names of anyone you are travelling with on the entry form. Think our cruise raised just short of £25000, and slightly less on the previous cruise. Not a fan of his or Take That, up to that point, but would happily pay full price to go and see him again. Great evening for a worthy cause. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was awful and went down the sink. A few years ago, we were given some from Cliff Richard’s winery in Portugal (I think) which was almost as bad. Hopefully Gary Barlow’s will be better. You will just have to take that or leave it. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Britboys Posted January 27, 2023 #19 Share Posted January 27, 2023 I'm all for raising charitable funds but don't think this is really the right way to go about it... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majortom10 Posted January 27, 2023 #20 Share Posted January 27, 2023 If I was onboard I would have a go. Very worthy charity if you are not successful and if you are a lot cheaper than some of the *rap P&O charge to see in the Limelight Club. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Megabear2 Posted January 27, 2023 #21 Share Posted January 27, 2023 I am going to be onboard - quite by accident. Is it one raffle ticket per guest or do they sell multiple tickets to raise funds for the charity? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neecy1 Posted January 27, 2023 #23 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Yes one per person. You fill a form in with your cabin number and names and then put the form in boxes dotted round the ship which then goes in the draw 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technoman2 Posted January 29, 2023 #24 Share Posted January 29, 2023 I suppose £10 seems cheap when you look at the charitable donation being paid to CPS parking. I guess some mugs will pay it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
