Moment of madness - (the road to hell is 11 miles)

[Caroline]

Hi guys

Having finally quit smoking a couple of weeks ago, I thought it would be a great idea to enter myself for an 11 mile charity walk on the 18th May to raise money for hospices. Kent Messenger Charity Walk . So I was wondering if anyone fancied sponsoring me on what may be the last time I walk any further than from the front door to car

Another pound a mile here, Caroline

Thanks guys, that's great, I will be on a mission to complete the walk, the walk to school will be a breeze in the park after this.

Caroline - have you had a look at Just Giving? Friends of mine have used it - makes it easy to collect the monies and they can even automatically reclaim gift aid on any eligible donations

Caroline,

As Dan says.

Works a treat and saves a lot of hassle.

Hi guys,

The 'just giving' website is a great idea, but I'm just doing this walk as a one off and they charge

[Caroline]

I just want to say a big thank you to everyone that sponsored me.

I did the 11 mile walk yesterday and luckily the weather was good. There were plenty of hills and the walk lead us through alot of woodland and farmers fields.

My knees felt like they were going to fall off last night, but it was worth it, I raised

Well done Caroline, excellent effort.

Which is you in the pic?

Await your PM with payment details!

[mayevora]

Good on you Caroline. I will try to remember to pass on my donation to Bibs at Castle Coombe to pass to Troy to pass to you ect ect, if he would be so kind.

Hope you've enjoyed a rest today then.

The other woman in the photo is Catherine (Katie), she does the walk every year and I got chatting to her as she was doing the walk on her own too. Turns out that she was born two days before me, and in the same hospital. How mad is that???
