Story
For two years now, the mountain that is Garry Williams, has been decrying the trek to the pinnacle of Kilimanjaro as a walk in the park. Now it's time for Garry to take his feet out of his mouth and place them one at a time, very slowly, in front of one another, on the sacred ground that is the largest free standing peak in the world.
The loveable rogue, otherwise known as the Wodge monster, has been dreading this moment from the point he foolishly suggested that if we could raise £50k, he'd show everyone how easy it really is to walk up that hill.
So if you've been up Kili and think you know better, if you've met Wodge and think he's nothing but a mouthy gobsh*te or if you have a sense of humour which would be tickled by Garry wobbling and hobbling up that infamous hill, then this is your opportunity. If you're a sadist who just thinks you'd benefit from a party if he doesn't make it back alive, or someone who's wandered onto his radar as a competitor and been shocked by the nature of his vociferous vilification, then please donate a little cash to his fund.
Even if you've never met him, he's like marmite, the odds are you won't like him when you do! Me myself, I love him dearly. He's a great bloke, a diamond and a pillar of our great industry of entertainment software and the industry owes him more than it might care to admit. But even when you like him, like what I do, there'll be a part of you that wants to see him in temperatures of -20 where the air is difficult to breathe if you were walking on flat ground, never mind a 1 in 3 climb on frozen scree. So give generously please.
In the words (or almost) of another once great leader, never in the field of virtual entertainment, have so many owed so much to a single fat bloke!
For those of you that believe that Garry is all mouth and no trousers (God forbid!), please seek assurances from Mr Andy Payne at The Producers, Mastertronic, Just Flight, that pub he owns, or at Upton Park on any day of the week except the 3rd Saturday in October, when he'll be giving the Big Man a helping hand up the Big Hill.
Garry will be climbing to raise money for some great causes which help underpriveleged and starving children, both in the UK such as the Paddington Academy, or for the street children of the Amani Centre in Moshi, Tanzania or the Kilimanjaro Village Educational Project. Every penny donated will get right to the heart of the problem, it won't be going through governments but is given to people that actually make a difference every day, every single day of their lives.
Thank you for your time. Please give generously and don't forget the gift aid. Why should the government get the money?
