Give Us A Mug *!*




















When Friends of Swifty tweeted Yorkshire Radio and asked them to send us a signed mug for our charity auction we didn't expect this ugly one to drop into our inbox. Sorry Darren - only joking!

Yorkshire Radio responded to our tweet in their usual good-humoured manner, and as they have no official mugs, opted to donate a paper cup with YR written on it in felt tip pen instead!

Sticking to our slogan *** You donate it - We'll auction it! *** FOS decided to start accepting bids online at Twitter and they began to fly in.

Seeing how popular their item was proving and in the hope that it would outshine the Freddie Flintoff Signed First Day Cover, Yorkshire Radio decided to up the ante and add an official T-Shirt, signed by their very own Darren Harper! The bidding increased and currently stands with FOS Ian Kennedy (via email) at £20.00.

Bidding on this item is continuing online at Twitter right up until Saturday 26 September when our charity golf tournament and auction in aid of Manorlands Hospice takes place. With 16 days to go until the night who knows what heights this item may reach!

You can follow the bidding Friends of Swifty @friendsofswifty Yorkshire Radio @YorkshireRadio on Twitter and @chubbyewok Darren Harper
