lumpy said:If you want this to be taken seriously, which it should be, maybe it would be best to stay focussed and cut out the bollocks. It's for a good cause and it gets rid of you for a while.
Perhaps it might help attract donations if the guys doing this state how much they are putting into it? Is their donation covering the costs of their flights, accomodation etc?lumpy said:fair point but it's already gone the way of so many useful threads on here and the penny pinchers aren't sponsoring anyway at the moment. The serious ones that would sponsor will NOT read all this drivel before doing anything, and I imagine the general response of apathy is all you should expect. Obviously ?1 out of their budgets is too much, even though most owuld look to buy cheap oil and brakes etc. to save a bit more. Cynical yes. Realistic Yes. Sorry mate, this may have to reappear la the day, after the Pagan festival that is Christmas. I for one look forward to you doing this, hopefully successfully, and even if only for peace and quiet, others should too. Gotta be worth a quid or 2 surely.
Sorry to have annoyed you, I was only trying to help?Lebowski said:I am not suggesting this is the case...
uncle shrek said:This is something I'm planning on doing within the next couple of years too. I've made a donation and I hope you have a great time making a difference.
Good on you guys!
I sponsor just a couple of charities, and this one is a bit of a pet one, so you're more than welcome.Fat Bert said:Cheers mate
This came as a mighty surprise as it took a bit of finding who had donated this "substantial" amount
Makes you feel it's all suddenly very worthwhile - thank you
Will drop you an email seperately
If you're thinking of doing it - just do it - book it for 2009 as 2008 I believe is now full - I was VERY apprehensive to start off with but the reaction that we're getting locally and wordlwide is amazing and it really gets under your skin
We've now organised the Boxing Day Sea Swim [fooking freezing] - in speedo's [no webcams thank you LOL] under local sponsorship FFS
We've also organised a fund-raising rock and blues gig in April down here in Tenby with 3 very good local bands - once we've got the final details sorted - all will be cordially invited down here - I'll even buy the first beers! Should be quiet a night!!
We need to make an interim "Stage Payment" of ?1000 soon to EnduroAfrica the organisers and charity fund holders] so any more donations would be very gratefully received
