Graham - I posted the picture auction onto the Park in The Past Facebook page - with an equal lack of responses. I think that Facebook is not really that effective a forum for actively engaging people. It's too easy to press 'like' and move on. It seems that people lack the attention span to take in information or act on anything if it involves any more effort than that one 'click'. (If just half the people who allegedly 'like' PiTP were to sign up as friends, we'd be financially secure, and not be needing to spend quite so much of our energy fine tuning our business plan - but I digress!)
I suggest that if no bids are forthcoming you should wait until we have the televised event in July - at which point everyone will suddenly want a piece of us - ironically when we've already passed the stage at which we really needed their help! Obviously we won't forget those like yourself who stepped up before it was fashionable.
Thanks again for your support!
