Memory Board at A night of pasta, memories and Tulips

On Sunday 21st September at the Veni Vici Cooking Marathon in aid of Tulips, we will have a memory board whereby anyone who has lost a loved one through cancer can post their photograph in remembrance of them.

Whilst this event is going to be fun (as well as a lot of hard work!) we do not want to forget why we, the owners and staff of Veni Vici are running this fundraiser.

So please, anyone who is coming on Sunday (of which we hope there will be many of you) please bring with you a photograph if you have lost a relative, close friend or acquaintance through cancer.

Further information on the event itself can be seen on the following link:

What a fantastic idea. But people such as me are not strong enough to carry all the photos of th eloved ones I have lost due to this wretched disease. O.K. Maybe a bit of an exaggeration, but too many in my family and close friends. My first mate died at 27 with a brain tumour, and since there have been dozens. This will surely help to remind us all as to how much help is needed to sufferers and their families and friends. A reminder too that maybe we should give more money in line with the fond memories we have of those taken from life too soon.

So out come the old photo albums. Maybe it would be a good idea to cut and paste all those on to a A4 sheet and hang that up

And before anyone complains this is not in events it deserves to be left here untilk Sunday so ensure the event is successful and this posting is seen by all.

Anyone for spaghetti

Could not agree with you more, Marions - this is a great idea.

This is going to be a fabulous day but we need people through the door so please all (central, east and west Girne pasta eaters!) consider visiting Veni Vici, Lapta on Sunday for a meal or a takeaway for only 15TL (10TL to Tulips from each meal).

And please bring your photographs with you as we mentioned in msg 1 - this is about having fun but reminding ourselves why we are all taking part.

If anyone is unsure of where Veni Vici is situated - it is so easy to find. As you head into Lapta from Girne direction: It is the first restaurant on the left hand side at the beginning of the Lapta strip.

Any problems, then you can always call Tulips on: 0548 870 2281 - Sue

Today is the day.

Please do not waste your time cooking today, come on down to Veni Vici and have a pasta meal for only 15TL.

Bring your friends and neighbours, have a takeaway or even come for a meal and take home a couple of meals to pop in your fridge.

Alternatively, have a pasta party at home for your friends and come and collect a takeaway.

We look forward to seeing you all today.
