Story

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">As Rob and I are showing at AFAC 2011in Sydney in late August, we wondered what we could do to commemorate flying around the world for Hainsworth and clocking up a combined 42,000miles.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Bridge Climb caught our eye as being truly memorable, a little scary and something we would never repeat. Since the purpose of our visit to Australia was to promote our range of Fire-fighters PPE, we thought it would be an ideal opportunity to raise money for the Fire Fighters Charity and give something back.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">Oh and did I mention I am scared of heights....</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">I have gone into training, climbing every stair I can find and only looking straight forwards at the horizon, never down &ndash; I don&rsquo;t know if it will work for vertigo, but it is making the drive to work more interesting&hellip; Gin seems to be working for the panic attacks... unfortunately it is having a detrimental effect on my balance... </span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span>Please give generously, help us beat our target for a great cause and make the whole terrifying experience worthwhile!</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">Thanks!</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">Charlotte &amp; Rob</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
