  • AND THE TEAFEST WINNERS ARE...

    Teafest_potRemember Teafest? On the 16th November, we asked you all to celebrate TEA! The day went really well, with all sorts of tea related hi-jinx. We had our busiest day on the brainstrust website yet, and you raised loads of money to boot (just shy of £200) so THANK YOU. EVERYONE!

    Anyhow, the competition...

    Thanks to the guys at Make Mine a Builder's, we have 2x 6 month supplies of Builder's tea to give to 2 lucky Teafest participantsteafest_builders-tea.

    To enter, people had to either raise as much money as they could for brainstrust and donate at justgiving.com/teafest, or they had to submit their Teafest pictures, so that the chaps at Make Mine a Builder's could enlist their facebook fans (all 1000+ of them) to vote.



    So, without further ado...



    The lucky prize winners for this year's teafest are...



    PRIZE FOR MONEY RAISED:


    VICKI MUNRO from Leeds 

    For her fab cake sale. Vicki's cakes fetched £45, and came in a variety of flavours. By all accounts they didn't last too long either. Well done Vicki!



    And, next up...


    THE PRIZE FOR BEST PICTURE, AS VOTED BY THE FACEBOOK FANS OF 'MAKE MINE A BUILDER'S':


    LEE LONG from Doncaster. 

    Lee's photo was selected as the best Teafest snap by the 1000+ facebook fans of 'Make Mine a Builders', stealing over 50% of the votes.

    So well done guys! Your Tea will be winging it's way to you as soon as we get hold of your addresses.


    And one last thing, if you do one thing, today, just click here and make sure to become a fan of 'Make Mine a Builder's' on Facebook.


    Without the support of fab companies like this, we would be at sea, and Vicki and Lee would have no Tea.


    Oooh, that rhymes!


    Roll on teafest 2010, and in the meantime ... Merry Christmas everyone!
