Is this a For-Profit event? Looks like it is- no mention of any group or why it should be a fundraiser.

Could it be a fundraiser for a group that is too ashamed to mention its name?

I believe it is a fundraiser for Republican Sinn Fein. If they are too inept to include that information I don't think they will be running the country anytime soon.

Hi Drotherapy !
Every such function is a "for-profit event" - whether it's the pub owner(s) that hope to make a profit , the group , or the organisers. Bet that's a surprise to you!
And I notice you didn't publish your name , either : pot, kettle.
Thanks anyway for 'bumping' this post up the thread!

Hi #$*# !
No real need , then , to mention 'the name' - sure you knew all along ;-)
Thanks for the 'bump'!
Thanks folks!
Sharon.

Hi !
We had a great night out , a full house , buzzing atmosphere - and a promise to do it all again!
There was 13 raffle prizes won last night , a packed hall that was at times louder than the band , a bar that couldn't keep up with the orders and an exhausted organising committee....

More info - and a good few pics - at the 'Related Link' below.
Thanks!
Sharon.
