govanblue 16,847 Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 Update:I was on the phone to Erskine and Rangers Charity Foundation today, and that's it all sorted (well, the wheels are set in motion at least)RCF have given a list of available dates to Erskine for them to choose the two that best suit. As soon as they've done that, I'll get everything else booked up.We opted for January/February, because the Recreation Staff will already have a pretty hectic schedule laid on for their residents over the Christmas period, and January/February is otherwise pretty dreary. A Big Thank You to Rangers Charity Foundation who were delighted to help yet again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GovanblueRangers MediaSponsors Fund I appreciate the sentiment mate, but me being me, I need to pull you up for having a typo in every line govanblue - small g RangersMedia - one word, even though it has 2 capitals Sponsors' Fund - apostrophe after the s - But they're all under 15 letters, which is more than most have managed.

Or maybe they forgot to mention it to meOr maybe they did, and I wasn't paying attention. (yeah it'll be this one!)Either way, I'll be looking in to that.
