Monster Weekend Raffle - Billy 'the whizz' Baxter

[Julie]

Hi All

Al at Ducati UK has donated some prizes for our monster weekender.

Please see photos below of the lovely garments they have sent.

I have 5 prizes - 3 tops and 2 signed posters

The tickets will cost £1 each or a strip for a fiver (thats what ruth said anyway - a fiver to see Ruth strip isn't a bad price is it?)

Anyway I'll be bringing the prizes to the weekender and hope you will dig deep to help the Vista Charity and Blind Billy do his lap of Donnighton on the Ducati Monster

Well done on the blag, I'll definately have some - hope the gear is extra large!

Nice one Joo

What does Ducati Potere mean?

[giler]

Potere
In the present indicative tense, potere means "to be able to" or "can." For example:

posso uscire? (May I go out?)
Posso suonare il trombone. I can (am able to) play the trombone.

In the present perfect tense, potere means "to be able to, to succeed":

Ho potuto spedire il pacco. (I was able to mail the package.)
Non sono potuti venire pi˜ presto. (They could not come earlier, but they tried.)

In the conditional tenses (condizionale presente and condizionale passato), this verb may be translated as "could," "would be able to," "could have," or "could have been able to":

Potrei arrivare alle tre. (I was able to arrive at three o'clock; I would be able to arrive at three o'clock.)
Avrei potuto farlo facilmente. (I could have done it easily; I would have been able to do it easily.)

Glad to be of help - although I am still none the wiser:scratch:

We can't make the weekender this year :( can we still buy tickets and where/who do we send money too?

[Julie]

I'll PM you my details and then PM you your raffel numbers and draw raffel at the weekender - is taht ok?

[Julie]

Please note - I will be drawing the raffle after the sunday lunch and bringing the prizes to the lunch as some people head straight home after.

Nice prizes will look good framed on the wall, well as long as there not signed my little pony t-shirts that is :mand: sounds like you beat Nattyboy to the puddings last night :chuckle:

[fatbloke]

Will the raffle be going on to the trackday? as it would
sell a few more tickets

[Julie]

Terry I was hoping you would be able to blag bigger prizes for the track day - maybe mand could save the Tshirts that she got last night for the track day raffle as i think the three prizes i have are enough for this weekend.

[fatbloke]

OK Julie I'll do my best

[Mand]

and I'll unpack the t-shirts and hold on to them for the trackday then. :)
