An auction organised by 91热爆 WM to raise money for the Asian tsunami
appeal has added 拢2,500 to the Disasters Emergency Committee's coffers.
91热爆 WM presenter Ed Doolan started proceedings and
bids soon started rolling in at the event held at Birmingham's Repertory
Theatre on Sunday 6 February.
The best offer received by auctioneers Biddle and Webb was 拢380 for
a tour behind-the-scenes at TV programme Fifth Gear, which also included
a drive with star presenter Tiff Needell.
拢330 was paid for a pair of tickets to see every production held at
the Birmingham Rep for the coming year.
A life-size cardboard cut-out of Ed Doolan raised 拢100 for the appeal.
Ed said: "So soon after Christmas it's great to see the people of Birmingham
still turning out to donate money for this cause. We are a very generous
city."
Staff from 91热爆 WM, the Birmingham Rep and Biddle and Webb, who gave
up their time to organise and run the event, were delighted by the response
and generosity of the bidders.
