  I like the Town Mayor's Balls so I do. They are always great fun.
  
  Tickets are going fast so I hear, so dont miss out on the annual hoot. A must in the social calender..and shure the girls like it. They like dressing up so what can yer do!! Lots of nice food on offer too as well as all the glamour, and the odd festive glass or two gets you in the mood.

  The poster I sent round to the 1600 or so on my email lists, said the cost of the tickets was £25.00 not £26.00.
  
  Hope lots of people can afford tickets (and drinks) - it's a very good cause.

  Not wishing to be a kiljoy but how much of the ticket money goes to Charity? A Big Band and 3 Course Meal don't come cheap these days.Plus staff,security heating and lighting....

  Ah well I dont know that one Marek but I would imagine over a period of events a certain amount is accumulated and passed on but Im sure its all genuine as we have the noble towns elite behind it all.
  
  As for the cost as mentioned by Roger. The Town Council themselves flagged the event in our Whats On page and put the cost as £26. Thats where I got the figure although I see the DE has it at £25 today.

  to answer Mareks question: no one knows until the last ticket is sold but the balance and the organisation is for the Mayors fund which is a separately accounted charity that is distributed by the Fund committee each year.

  Thanks for that info.
  
  I'm sure some exmayor reading the above postings will want to post something to the effect of how their balls were bigger..and more profitable than their predecessors.
