Dolmio are hosting a series of events to promote their range of 100% Natural Bolognese sauces. They would very much like Mumsnetters and their children to attend a "Dolmio 100% Natural Fun Day" and then to add their feedback about the event on this thread to tell other MNers (and Dolmio) what they thought about it. The next event is at the Braehead Shopping Centre in Glasgow. The event will run between 10am and 6pm.

Everyone who visits an event and returns to Mumsnet to add feedback to this thread be entered into a prize draw to win a £200 John Lewis voucher and a Dolmio hamper. Once you've been to the event all you have to do is say a) which event you attended and b) what you and your children thought of it. Do also let us know how you got on with the World Record attempt Grin

The events are being held as follows:

Glasgow Braehead Shopping Centre: Saturday 7th May
Newcastle/ Gateshead Metro Centre: Saturday 14th May
Manchester Trafford Centre: Saturday 21st May

Dolmio say the events will feature the following:

"World Record Attempt - Each family will receive a ball of dough and will be able to feed it through a pasta machine in an attempt to beat the 7ft world record. Once they have completed their attempt an independent adjudicator will measure the pasta, record it's length, take a photo of the family with their creation and bag it up in a branded bag for them to take home and cook together. A leader board will record the longest attempts each hour, and at the end of that hour the leader will win a branded herb grow kit"

Also there will be pasta collages to make with your child, face painting and free samples of Dolmio on pasta to try.

The events are open to all so please also tell your friends about it. Do 'watch' this thread to remind yourself to give feedback after the event.

Thanks, MNHQ

Braehead is just a teensiest different to Buchanan Galleries: one is in the city centre (and has a John Lewis) and one is (significantly) out of town (tehcnically not even in Glasgow) and doesn't have a John Lewis

But I wouldn't expect MNHQ to know that Grin

No need for the :( - it's just that people go to the two places for different reasons :) because a) they are 8 miles apart and b) one is part of the city centre and the other is an out-of-town mall (in fact, I'm just back from there)

And Braehead is only just outside Glasgow - in fact the boundary used to straddle it and caused all sorts of problems getting planning permission Grin
