Meenzer 14068 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Afternoon all. I realise JawD's already cornered the market for Toontastic charidee events this year with his impressive dual assault on the coast-to-coast walk and the GNR (and if you haven't shoved a few quid his way already, please do so!), but now it's my turn to stick a guilt trip on you all. Basically, on Monday 25th May I'll be dragging my tubby carcass around the Bupa London 10000, a 10k run through the centre of our glorious capital. I'm running on behalf of The Sick Children's Trust, a fantastic charity that provides 'Home from Home' accommodation for families whose children are receiving hospital treatment for serious illness. You might have seen them on Look North recently when Alan Shearer opened the new wing of Crawford House at the RVI in Newcastle - they also operate homes at major hospitals in Leeds, Sheffield, Cambridge and London, providing much-needed support for the families of sick kids and allowing them to stay together and offer each other essential support during what can be a difficult and highly distressing time. You can find out more at http://www.sickchildrenstrust.org/. Unfortunately, times are tight and credit is crunching, but I'd really appreciate any donations that you lot might be able to send my way, however large or small. Think of it this way - stick a few quid in the pot, have a soft drink instead of a beer the next time it's your round, and you'll have done some good to your conscience, your waistline and the bairns and their families, all at the touch of a button. And if you turn up at the pub the next time I'm in town for a match, I'll even buy you that beer myself. My JustGiving page is here - http://www.justgiving.com/martinf - or, if you're a perpetual clique member, feel free to shove a few quid into my sticky palm the next time you see me in person. And if you can't donate, feel free to hurl encouragement and abuse anyway - it's all good motivation. Thanks in advance for all your support.

Are you coming up for a match before the end of the season? Looking at the fixtures, the only one I can realistically do is Boro. How did that happen? I'll look into the trains.
