At the very least, post the justgiving.com page and I'll donate.

Will do as soon as i've got it setup. The woman at the PDS thats helping out is off till monday, so it'll be some time next week

Going to talk to Mrs Sonic, but the Sunday looks very doable just trying to work out the logistics of doing it all (Would mean 900 miles outside of the run itself).

smurf79 · 26th November 2008, 20:17

Right i'm still looking at some accomodation for those of us that are going to be staying overnight on the drive but i thought i'd let everyone know that the justgiving page is now setup for anyone that would like to sponsor us on the drive. Even if its only a pound, every little helps as they say. The web address is: -
Justgiving - Gareth Mann's Fundraising Page

If everyone that takes part can pass this on to their friends and family it would be fantastic.

smurf79 · 11th December 2008, 19:15

Anymore to sign up for this yet?

ctrdaveg · 11th December 2008, 19:49

I'm seriously considering to do all of the Day 2 run, but will leave the convoy at Junc 16 on the M6 and head for home.

It's 172 miles to lockerbie for me so may go there on friday night after work, stay over so I'm fresh for the next day.

I hope more people will donate to the good cause, only one person has donated so far on your link.

I'm going on the link now to donate.

Best of luck with the fund raising.
