OK, I know what you're thinking - Bob's on the scrounge again. But think of me straining every muscle and sinew for six days each week in the cold and wet at my advanced age. Masochist? Yes. But each donation will make a real difference to the lives of poor children as you can see on this link, www.afrikids.org

Training's gone well, though I'm very achy. Can't wait for the event itself - 50,000 of us are taking part. Allez Bob!
