Charity Thread

[Bogus Dave]

Hello.

In April I will be running the Paris Marathon, raising money for Great Ormond Street Hospital in the process. Now, I know that to most of the people reading this I'm just someone on the internet who can be a bit of a knobhead sometimes, but if you could find it in your hearts to donate anything I, my running partner and all the staff and patients at the hospital will be forever grateful.

Thank You

David

May I ask why Great Ormond street Dave?

[Bogus Dave]

Yes you may.

There's two of us doing it (originally three but one pulled out through Injury). My mate lives in portsmouth, which kind of ruled out a small local charity. None of us had any particular ties with any charity through our own lifes, so just plumped for this one because it seemed a nice thing to do, raising money for poorly kids.

I know its perhaps not the greatest reason, and between the Neville Donation fund and pumbaas charity there are much more things closer to home for people on here to give to. But given the time I waste spend on this site it seemed remiss not to at least put it forward.

Dave, if you bump this nearer the time I'll sling a donation your way.

Thankyou for explaining. Hope you didn't think I was being rude, I just wondered

Same as.

Also there is a pub quiz tonight at the Haydon Wick Fox and Hounds, with proceeds going towards the cause if anyone wants to get involved
