    If the donations keep rolling in, we could always get TWO park benches... (perhaps)
    It'll be a bit of a squash with us all on one, anyway!

    One park bench. The balance is going to the SPCA in Bruce and Debbie's name.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    i've been thinking the same thing; "i wanna sit on it" "no i wanna sit on it!"

    on the bright side it might make the welly crew arrive on time for once

    Do we get a say in that at all Jim?

    Am happy to donate to the seat in Bruce's name but should we consider the overflow to go to the SPCA under KiwiBikers name. The memorial to Bruce is well established and the PR for "nasty fat noisy pugalistic bikers" could get a wee boost from a donation by "clean cut, non-smoking, non-drinking, quiet and studious bikers"

    Its not a problem Jim .. it was agreed upfront that any leftover money would go to the SPCA .... Grub just hadn't seen that .... besides ... the best thing that the memorial will be there .. and we will know that additional moneys will go to the good of other beasties.

    Yep. The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 10 characters.
    My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog already thinks I am.

    Heya Grub - just to clarify, it was indicated very early on that if the money went over what was needed it would be given to SPCA in Bruce and Debbies name as they are right into their animals. I dont believe we should deviate from this idea just because we have extra money over and above the seat. So one park bench and the rest to SPCA is fwhat people are donating money for.

    Jim2 - regroup and stay focused mate - its all good.

    The desired outcome is to have a seat that will be "Bruces Seat" and every chance i get ill be down there to have a few memories of him.

    Bull said it all really, thanks dude.
    I just want to say how this all just goes to show what a fantastic guy Bruce was and how much he is being missed by so many. The intention of this was to honor him and by donating the left over dosh to the SPCA in his and Debbie's name is just another way to honor his memory and all the ways he touched many of our lives with his kindness, generosity and humor!
