No need for Paddy De Plasterer!

In order to raise funds for installation of handrails and restoration of crumbling concrete structures, It's proposed to market the pool as a "wishing pool", whereby visitors to the Vico shall be encouraged (i.e. coerced!) to toss coins (not less than 1 euro, or equivalent) into "the magic fairy pool", whereupon they will be granted a "lucky wish" by said fairies, whose existence may be verified for skeptical visitors by a tour around the hill!
  • It's proposed that the proceeds of such venture shall be harvested by Vicovers, and exchanged for beer, champagne and truffles ... ooops, that is handrails, concrete and, yes, evil bleach!
Note 1: verification tours around the hill shall cost 10 euro.
Note 2: wishing for refunds shall not be permitted.
Note 3: wishes will not be honoured!

Wishing pool is a great fundraising idea (who is going to provide the magnet to get the Euro coins out of it? Or are we going to train the cormorants to do it?). A and her black dog J had another great idea: Vicover's Summer BBQ for fundraising. A Midsummer Night Vico BBQ Dream. I just discovered that I have a proper one in my yard!
