The things people do for charity

Well I've had some strange days at work before but this one has to take the biscuit. Today, my boss got arrested. Yeap you heard me ARRESTED!!!

I always thought he had a bit of a dark side to him :)

But seriously though. As part of a fund raising event for one of Aberdeen's local charities Northsound's Cash for Kids, Jeff was arrested at 14:40 by two genuine policeman for "Abuse to Office equipment" (it's a long story!!). He was then taken downstairs, hand chuffed and thrown in the back of a police van.

He was then whisked over to the Aberdeen Exhibition & Conference Centre and locked in their tower with other local businessmen and celebrities. The idea from this point on was to phone as many contacts as possible and aim to make at least £1000 each for the charity.

The group managed to raise around £14,000 with Jeff making approxiamately £2,500 of that total. Nice one Jeff!!
