Story

Welcome to my fundraising page.

Mission accomplished - race completed - targets exceeded - nearly £1,000 raised - thanks very much!

A big thank you also for the support of the crowd who cheered and encouraged us every step of the way, to the Best family including Gael pictured above and with whom I ran, Steve who drove us to and from London and to Ed who provided accommodation. Also to the Good Grief Appeal who kindly provided post race facilities and hospitality.

I have now received my pictures which I have put (together with all the others I have scrounged) in random order onto a Picasa site the link to which is: http://tinyurl.com/542frj

If you haven't sponsored me yet it isn't too late - donating on-line is simple, secure and will help me raise funds for Breast Cancer Care for whom I ran this year - if you would prefer to support me by some other means please email: bill@messinger.org.uk

Don't forget if you are a UK taxpayer an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

This was my fourth London Marathon so I have become an old hand - or just old maybe - either way please sponsor me.

Many thanks in anticipation of your support.
