1874 Charity Curry Challenge
« on: January 06, 2013, 09:35:03 PM »
If you're on FB, check this out.

Quote
Dedicated squad of Villa fans who aim to eat 1874 curries between them in 2013.
For each curry consumed we will donate £1.00 to Acorns.

There will also be donation tins on the Marchants Villa coach for each Aston Villa game.

The rules are as follows:


1. Each curry consumed must be named. The Administrator reserve the right to question the authenticity of the consumed curry, therefore the Administrator's decision is final at all times.

2. When submitting a consumed curry we need to say that they increase the count by one each time. (e.g. If the person before you had curry 67, you must say you had curry 68 etc)

3. If we are counting more that one curry at a time, each curry must be accompanied by a portion of rice or a naan bread. If you have 2 dishes at once then you should be eating rice or naan with each one.

4. Every time you consume a curry then you donate £1.00 to Acorns. We are trusting everyone with their honesty when collecting monies. Anyone who is even suspected with withholding cash will be severely rogered (in a bad way) or subjected to Storytime with John Holder.

5. At least half the curry must be consumed to count towards the 1874

6. All monies must be collected in by January 10th 2014

7. The administrators decision is final

What about a good old chappatti?

Has anyone successfully joined the FB group yet?  It's just that I was having a bit of trouble.

I think it is set as 'closed' and requests to join have to be accepted by whoever is admin on there. I'll see if I can sort something out this evening.

A response from the group admin:

We have a concern that if we accept anyone/people we don't know, we can't be sure that we will get the donations off them.
