I'll be heaving my carcass about doing a 5k Race For Life mud run next month, so if its okay, can I plop this here in case anyone wants to add a donation:-
https://fundraise.cancerresearchuk.org/page/michaels-race-for-life-4140
It'll greatly appreciated, but, no biggy if you pass, I wasnt going to look for donations, but since the page is there I may as well see if I can nab some extra cash for the charity. :)

I'll set this sticky for the month and hopefully others will donate any coppers they have spare :)

Yeah, there was a few that give me a chuckle when I saw them, on the other side, while we were waiting for our group to start the race, doing a warm up and that, they had a segment from people who had the disease and all that, people who beat it, and people who were now sadly gone, then there was a minutes silence to remember people who were lost due to cancer... That was a bit emotional, this big burly bloke in front of me just broke down, his mate give him a hug. I was welling up me, huge lump in my throat! So even though it was fun and that, it stomped home why you were actually doing it!

Pub reward deserved.

Oof, I would probably be the same... that's the serious side of what you're doing.

It's great to hear about decent people in the world. My Dad passed away from emphysema and lung cancer and my Mom passed from bowl cancer so anytime you want sponsoring, no matter the charity, just let me know :)
Thanks fella's! ;)
When I have another crack at getting trench foot, I'll certainly post here! :)
