My story

 

Little, Large & Beardy will be attempting to conquer the roads of Central Europe in a £250 car!  We will travel from Gloucestershire to a British port.  That could be a challenge in itself, in a banger!  The rally actually starts in Northern France, through France to Spain and on to Portugal.  Hell fire that's a challenge!  If we make it that far, we're then planning to drive back, but recycling the car and flying back has its appeal too.  The challenge is officially only one-way, so don't worry we're not cheating by flying back. 

I hope you agree that the challenge is tricky and worth a donation to the charity.  Your money (and some of the Governments money of you're a UK tax payer) will go to a charity that provides educational tools to the less fortunate in our world.  Whilst we're planning on having fun, it could be a lot different if we (or the car) breaks down.   None of us speak Portuguese, Spanish and I can only just about ask for a ham and cheese sandwich in French!
