General Pinky The Panda Fundraising Thread
Few bit's of news......
Pinky will be at the Coleford Festival of Transport on Easter monday, feel free to pop along and see him, maybe even throw a couple of quid in the 'oh so pink' buckets.

Total collected from Easyfundraising now stands at £31.38 so well done to those that are using this and CHECK IT OUT! for those that aren't.
Gavin, could we have a total in the kitty please, unless it's really embarassing.
Another batch of window stickers is due any day so these are available to anyone donating a minimum of £5.
That's about it, although I notice this thread is a little low on pictures so here's a couple from last November's NEC show. Pinky with his celebrity friends......
How tall is the guy in the Pudsey suit?

The book shows £184.17 but I haven't banked the Easyfundraising cheque yet and have £10.20 Paypal'd to me to pay across too (John aka CLS and Cameron to thank for that bit - thanks
). Basically £200 but we have paid for the car of course 
I wonder if it would help the cause if we could get the thread duplicated onto the home page or another prominent position?
If we could make Pinky THE Fiat Forum charity fundraising focus (and not just us Panda peeps) perhaps that would help with the 'in house' fundraising?
Just a thought, we could have a competition to see which model forum could raise the most for Pinky over a period of time?
Looking forward to the new stickers, I'd like two for £10, side windows are looking a bit bare!

Ditto!
Palio: hopefully, Pinky's bank balance should just have gone up by a few squid. If not, feel free to PM/email me....

Don't forget to PM me your address.
Spoke to the printers yesterday as the new stickers should have been ready a few days ago. The Guy in the office told me that the first batch wasn't clear enough plus they hadn't done as I'd asked and made them for sticking to the inside of the window, so he rejected them.
The second attempt should be ready by Tuesday and if I want the first batch they're free.
I think I will have them unless they are really bad, it would be useful to have some that are sticky on the back as some people will want to stick them on thier bodywork, noticeboard, fridge etc. They can always be a little cheaper if the poor quality is that obvious.

I will need two of the outside ones for a little project I am planning
Three inside and one outside for the Toyota truck for me..
I will amend my order to 3 x inside and 1 x outside, it's about time Twizzle got Pinkied up!
Take them if they're free. If they are too poor to put on cars then just stick them on random fences/walls around town.
Free advertising!
Picked up the Pinky stickers today only to find there is nothing wrong with the first batch as far as I can see, just that they put the glue on the wrong side.
They are about the size of a pair of folded up spectacles, don't look like £5.00 worth though, I think we might struggle to sell them for that to the general public so I'm going to go for £2.50 at car shows.
I'll get on the case soon and post out the ones that are owed soon.
I've got a pic of them but for some reason it won't add to the this post, will try again later.

Pics are working today.

I took the decision to make Pinky a little more presentable for the Coleford festival of transport just in case some members of the public were finding it difficult to picture the potential Pinky has and not donating. Also I didn't want to make him look too good and then have people thinking that he didn't need thier support, so a quick vacuum and polish was carried out yesterday.
As a result he has gone from this.......
The mot is due in four weeks so it won't hurt for him to be looking good for that too.
