As those of you who listened to me on The Net this morning will know, we are now looking at somewhere between 60 and 70 people taking part in the Treasure Hunt on Saturday night. This is great news, not just for our fund for the Almerimar Strays, but also for the bars involved and the port in general. This time of year things are still pretty quiet, and I’m hoping the event will create a much welcome buzz for early Saturday evening. It also looks like being a really fun event for everyone involved, and although as an organiser I can’t compete, (or drink too much for that matter!) I’m looking forward to a fun evening.

So even if Treasure Hunts are not your thing, Saturday evening from 6pm should be pleasantly lively if you fancy joining us for a drink, and if anyone wants to give a small donation to the fund, the marshals in each of the bars will be happy to receive it, or you can just throw your loose change into the collecting boxes. As we have indicated on our posters, ALL the money raised goes into paying vet bills to help the stray animals, with the clear aim to humanely control the population, as, whilst I love animals, I do realise that large number of strays cats and dogs do cause problems.

Anyway, I’m hoping for a good evening, for the bars of Almerimar as much as the fund-raising, so please take part in any way you feel like and so you know where we´ll all be, here are the names of the bars specifically involved in the event: La Barca, Harbour Lights, Ankara, Loch Ness, La Plaza, La Bahia, MacGowens.
