Ok folks, well as you all may know because of my crying over my sore legs, I completed the Coast2Coast last weekend. Was truly a fantastic event, there were times when I could have packed it in, but because of all your fantastic donations It helped me finish it. If anyone would still like to donate a few shillings please follow the wee link, every penny is much appreciated. I'll be heading over to Mindwise in the next week to hand over the cash donations. Thankyou all....Keith
