Story

Foolish? Probably.

Nuts? Possibly.

Faintly Ridiculous?  Certainly.

We're off to see Prague. Most people would pay £3.25 and enjoy the convenience of an Easyjet flight. We thought we'd join 100 odd other idiots in a 'banger rally', spend 4 days in an old heap of a motor, and go via Italy. And Germany, Switzerland, France and Austria.

The 'rally' starts on the 1st September, and ends in Prague on the 4th. Assuming of course that our old shed manages to make it past Warrington. You can 'Czech it out' (groan) at http://www.czechwrecks.com - we're Team 46!

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: The lovely people at the Cardiomyopathy Association will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you - but if you'd rather just send me a 'Czech' (oh dear...) that's fine too!

So please sponsor us now!  We're meeting the costs of the rally ourselves, so every penny raised will go directly to the Cardiomyopathy Association -  www.cardiomyopathy.org.uk This will help them to continue the fantastic research they are doing into these heart rhythmn disorders, and help them to continue providing medical and practical support to individuals and familes affected by cardiomyopathy. 

Many thanks for your support.
