What a wonderful night. Had a fab time at the pomegranate launch. Well done Engol and Feebee on all your hard work, you are making such a difference.

I was there briefly last night just to see aandl and I am embarrassed to say that I didn't know what it was all about (I'm not on here very often). However, when aandl explained it to me I was soooo impressed. I think it is such a wonderful idea . I have a personal understanding of fertility problems and to think that there is a charity out there trying to raise funds for IVF is just fantastic. I wish you all the best in the future and will support you at every opportunity I can. Well done

Hi Hip Hop Honey, I think then it must have been you I tried to meet on the way in the door but you were having none of me lol Well, thank you very much for coming along anyway and I'm delighted you had a great time.

Thanks to everyone that came along and everyone that supported us online too.

A very special thanks to Aqua who worked like a Trojan all night. In heels! And looking absolutely amazing too.

I'm getting a list together of our online winners.

Because all I have is real names and because I don't know all the usernames that are attached to the real names I'm afraid I am going to have to put the prize winners on facebook and let them decide for themselves if they want to reveal themselves as winners. (that's too long a sentence but I was up late last night and too tired to think commas :lookround: ) But I can say that I recognise several MagicMums as winners and I'm absolutely delighted there are too!

Glad it went well Engol, I'm hoping to see lots more in the papers about Pomegranate to raise awareness for what you are doing.
It's such a great charity.

It really was a great launch night: and the ladies all looked fabulous :biggrin:
Very emotional speeches caught us all off guard a little,
I think Pomegranate can only go from strength to strength with all the support that's out there :thumbsup:

Oh, and I won a prize - and I can honestly say I never win anything so I made a total show of myself :blush: :lol:

You were great. We were worried that there would be no winners in the room but there were. We had so many prizes! Lots of the really good ones went to the room but delighted for Irishlady getting the One Direction tickets. Dh was saying this morning that the very excited reaction of winners in the room made the raffle great fun and I think he was right. I'm also quite sure he was talking about you E :lol:

I'm sure you should have won prize for best dressed but unfortunately the prize was a sausage roll so I ate it.

Great night thank you and well done to all of you for such a well organized informative evening. Very emotive speeches well done. I'm coming out so here's the new Happypair too dah! Felt a bit of a fraud last night so that's that. I'm back. Woo HOO I can go back to what are you wearing thread :-)

E you more than made up for winners in the room lol. As did Skye...lovely to meet some of you again and most of you for the first time.

I would like to get my hands on the photographer today and do a bit of editing lol. Hats off to the most avid happy snapping photographer ever!

My theory of do something that scares you every day was out to the test, first mm gathering ever, it rocked!
