 QUIZASTER - 16th July - Farnborough FC

So ladies and gentlemen, the fundraisers will start with this beast. We have the 4 glamorlasses, Tanya, Abi, Charlotte and Gina, who’ll be competing in a quiz, with numerous twists and tales all the way through. Who better to host the quiz, with none other than Drakey Hall, the man who gets swiped right on every ladies tinder screen. The 4 ladies will be wearing blue or white suits (NHS Colours) throughout this emphatic quiz, whilst trying to answer the 19 questions quicker than their counterparts, Tanya & Gina in white, Charlotte & Abi in blue. We’re not going to lie to you, things are going to get horrendously messy in this quiz, they’ve all got to avoid 19 condiments they’re given from the beginning. There’ll be greenscreens in the background and air horns for buzzers, madhouse. 

The first 10 questions are general knowledge, pretty standard, straight forward, doesn’t need much explaining, are the questions hard? Meh, probably but that’s what’s going to make it fun. The second round is all anagrams, countdown style but better, so much better, I feel they’ll give the audience a bit of a laugh. The 3rd round is a lovely riddle round, you can’t have a quiz without some tongue in cheek riddles and finally, the 4th round is the impossible question round, the 4 probably not so glamorous ladies anymore have the chance to throw their remaining condiments over a contestant of their choice, if they get the answer correct. This could get quite interesting, who’s got it in for who? 

We hope, you, the audience enjoy this, it’ll all be filmed and put on YouTube for your entertainment, so please donate whatever you can to our justgiving page, especially as these ladies will be completely unrecognisable by the end of this. All for charity and you’re entertainment.

 Next to your donation, leave a condiment idea, a little message as well as the contestants name, you will get a shout out at the end and you'll get to see your weapon of choice being used! Multiple donations = multiple weapons!

Thank you. X

QUIZASTER

TANYA: Old miss brain box, the lady who loves an old fashioned pub quiz, if there’s any questions on Disney, she’s winning by a mile, any questions on anything else, she’s going to end up stinking. Her revision for this quiz involves a YouTube binge of CallMeKevin and GrayStillPlays videos in the evening, is it a sign of being extravagantly confident, or is it a sign that she doesn’t really care. We’ll find out come March. 

GINA: This absolute gem has taken the spare seat that became available, couldn’t ask for a better contestant to be fair, her general knowledge is probably a bit below par but that’s what gets views. In all fairness, Gina has done something similar to this already before, I would say she’s going into this as the most experienced, I heard she’s a massive fan of curry as well, not on the menu for this one I’m afraid. 

 

CHARLOTTE: Our very own NHS Hero, the one and only Charlotte is 100% in it to win it. Let’s just say this absolute machine has single handedly carried us through this global pandemic. A lover of custard and all things sweet - so any pie to the face is still considered a win for this foodie. Her general knowledge may be questionable, but let’s hope she smashes through the burning questions in this, same way she can smash out an afternoon nap!

ABI: Abi, she introduced charlotte to the afternoon nap and absolutely prioritises comfort over anything. This sleepy lady won’t know what’s coming! She’s university educated, but her general knlowedge is absolutely not a reflection of that. She’s just glad this isn’t a spelling bee, if you were in a group chat with her, you’d understand, well, actually, you wouldn’t. She’s a girl who hates hugs, has 3 friends and loves Fajitas, well unfortunately there’s none on the table in this quiz, just pie. 





TOUGH MUDDER - 17th July

Well, we’re quite far into the fundraisers now, after seeing the girls take on the messiest challenge on earth and the boys taken on probably the most ridiculous ride in England, they’re getting together again to tackle this absolute monstrosity. 12 miles through mud and obstacles, sounds great right. 

The challengers are as follows, the celebrity postman, Marcus. The big man, Harrison. Security man, Tom. The 29 year old uni student, Josh. The female Mo Farah, Katie and Ted. These absolute legends will be pushed to their limits, there are 24 obstacles and these range from knee deep mud, to electric wires, ice pools, adult monkey bars and loads more.

 Once these athletes have completed the tough mudder, they’ll be rewarded with a beer and a medal at the finish line. Which to me, sounds totally worth it, so please please donate and help us reach our goal. Thank you for reading and wish us luck.

Much love. Xx 



SNOWDON TBC

Here we have the climb of snowdon, with Marcus, Abi, Dan, Jacob, Harrison and maybe some others, we shall see who else we can have tag along. What better way to end a fundraiser though, with a lovely trip away to wales, unreal country, with unreal views, the folk can be a bit strange but we won’t hold that against them.

Anyways, there’s not much we can really explain here, apart from the fact that we’ll be slugging 1,085 metres upwards, (3560ft). You donators can also choose who rides the zip line back down as well, for a bit of fun. There’ll be some funny shirts on show and some live video streams all the way up. So once again, get behind us this one last time and help us achieve our goal!

Thanking you once again! 


Be on the look out for the events to take place. Hope you all enjoyed the read! 


FOOTBALL FRENZY TBC

Finally, finishing off the fundraising events, we have a good old fashioned football match, the beautiful game. It probably won’t be played that way though, all we have on both teams are really unfit fat blokes, who are way past their primes. One of the teams used to be unbeaten and the other has never played together.

Whilst one team seems to be at a disadvantage, this won’t be the case, some of these blokes haven’t kicked a ball in years, from both teams. So for your entertainment, I would highly recommend popping over and watching this pan out. 

Dates will be confirmed below, bring on the summer!

Cheers.
