PayFest 2019!


I said in a previous post that I would arrange for Paul Harper - the Host and DJ for 'PayFest 2019' - to meet and get to know some of the Glasgow claimants.

I'll be arranging this over the next 2 or 3 weeks and if PayFest Partygoers have any particular suggestions, just drop me a note at: markirvine@compuserve.com

More details about PayFest 2019 will follow in the weeks ahead and the process for buying tickets is explained in the post below.  

  



PayFest 2019 - Glasgow's Big Equal Pay Party 


So the ticketing arrangements for 'PayFest 2019' have now been updated after two days of restricting sales to 'Claimants Only'.

The result is that PayFest tickets can now be purchased by, or for, family members and friends using the same online address - https://www.a4es.co.uk

Alternatively people can also use the following telephone number - 0131 659 9958 - if they're not used to making online purchases and someone from A4ES will be happy to talk them through the process.

Tickets will still be sold on a 'first come first served' basis, but people will no longer be required to provide a National Insurance number. 

The cost of tickets is £10 but the proceeds (@ £10,000) will be going towards the acquisition of a fitting and lasting tribute to the Claimants and their long fight for equal pay with Glasgow City Council.

For those using the online facility, the drop down menu has been amended to ask the following 4 questions: 
  • Number of tickets required - then click ‘GO’
  • You will need to provide the names of all the guests you wish to attend
  • Your email address and delivery address with post code - then click ‘SUBMIT
  • Payment details - the final step in the process is to pay via PayPal, debit card or credit card. When you click ‘BUY NOW’ you will be prompted for your card details or PayPal password. If you do not have or want a PayPal account, just click ‘No Thanks’ and proceed to Pay Now.

People will receive a receipt confirming payment, by email, but tickets will not be sent out until nearer the time to avoid a clash with equal pay settlement letters which are due to be dispatched weekend of 11 May 2019.

An A4ES Helpline number is still available - 0131 659 9958 - if anyone has difficulty with the online booking process.

Kentucky Fried Seagull

Hugh Fearnley Whitingstall is one of my favourite - and endearingly bonkers - TV chefs. The River Cottage chef has a some imaginative ideas for adding seagulls to the national diet - including a recipe for Kentucky Fried Seagull - would you believe. Here's what HFW has to say on the subjecy -  I think I'll contact Hugh - and ask if he'll join the TAPAS campaign. "Vermin with wings? Chicken of the sea? Or just an opportunity missed?" "First and foremost, before we all go on a mad seagull killing frenzy. In the U.K it is against the law to kill seagulls or interfere with their nests under the countryside and wildlife act. Some Councils are allowed to cull them however, and usually do this by either poisoning or shooting them. How to catch your seagull. Remember this is against the law in the U.K. I don't want the Men in Blue knocking at the door because someone said that Foodimum told them it was okay to catch and eat seagulls. It isn...
