Hope you raise plenty of money for a very good cause, its a shame you can't do anything online (Sheffield's a bit far to travel to buy some raffle tickets... :( ).

Second that - if you do manage to get them on sale online I'll definitely buy some.

Not that I could claim to understand how complex things like VAT red tape work!  :D
