Story
Helen and I are taking part in a rally, driving a Citroen 2CV from Belgium to Benin, a distance of around 5,500 miles, and using this as a way of raising awareness and funds for the War Child charity.
We recently had a training weekend in Belgium where Helen sat in a 2CV for the first time, and in an uncharacteristic fit of brotherly tolerance, I let her drive it. She actually did quite well and whilst she was concentrating on that, she wasn't making sarcastic comments to me so we both got something from it.
We now have high hopes that we will be able to complete the rally without too many sulks and tantrums (from her not me).

Anyway, it would be great if you can support somehow. Any donation is highly appreciated, no matter how small. If you are too broke to spare anything now, messages of encouragement will also be gratefully received.
Please be aware that ALL money raised wll be donated directly with nothing deducted for our expenses.
NB - My employers, Lloyd & Partners, as well as sponsoring me have also agreed to match "pound for pound" all other donations, so anything you give will be doubled!!!
Remember - you are not sponsoring us, you are sponsoring War Child and they need it.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: War Child gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
So please sponsor us now!
