Caroline's Awesome Work!

What is Happening?

On this page you will find an up-to-date blog telling you what's happening in the studio, during the 24hours. A 'who hit's who' account perhaps, or a maybe a 'who is falling asleep in the corner account'. Anyway, all the goodness is below!

What's happening
Fri 1213

It's all over! The 24 hours have finally come to an end, and we're all absolutely shattered, but very very happy! The TV sold at £11.50, and we're all very proud to have been involved!

Our total raised amount was... (drum roll please!) £200!

The highest raising single show was Fused/Jam On Toast, who managed to get £68 for RAG! Thank you to all of those people who took part, whether you took part in a show, bid on the eBay items, or helped us in setting up various systems! Special thanks go to Alex Harries, who stayed with us for most of the night and helped us with various issues; Tom Worman, for constantly taking photographs and filming us to document what turned out to be an AMAZING 24 hours..!

We've all had brilliant fun, and it's definitely been a great learning experience, so who knows..? Pure FM 24 hour broadcast 2009..? ;o)

Love the Pure FM Committee

Fri 1030

Almost coming up to the end of the 24 hour broadcast.. An hour and a half to go! Tiredness has fully set in, and some people have had to leave for lectures, and other such commitments (ie SLEEP)! Left in the office, we have Maz, Fred, Caroline, Sarah and Hannah. In half an hour, we will be rounding up the broadcast; announcing the total amount raised for RAG and having a bit of general banter.

Fred: "Woop! Woop!"
