I have just read on the Alzheimers Society site that a group of Cardiff bankers and solicitors are going to raise funds for the society by playing musical chairs at the millennium stadium. They have to sit on all 74,500 seats.
Great idea.

How many of them are taking part?

I've just had another look and can't find details of participants. It's
happening tomorrow and they hope to raise £5000 +

Just thought it was a novel idea.

Such a good idea I do hope they reach their target.

Do they have to unwrap the parcel every time the music stops?

Tegan I think you might be getting a tad confused! Musical chairs/Pass the Parcel ????

You sit on the floor for pass the parcel and sit on chairs for musical chairs [unless you're the one without a chair of course]. Pass the parcel is much better because everyone gets a prize whereas in musical chairs there is only one winner. Bankers would go for the cheaper option, wouldn't they [only one prize to pay for]. Get it now. Think I aught to go to bed blush.
