Personal message:

Hello scamps - thanks for visiting my fundraising page. I'm off to Ethiopia with work in Nov or Dec to help teach English and other useful skills to young Ethiopians. I need to raise £1,000 by the end of August and have left it until the last minute. Typical.

I am hoping that you will help me achieve this by donating some money to this most worthy of causes, In order to show some willing, I am...

1) Going to Pizza Hut buffet in Bracknell on Tues 26th August. I am going to try and eat 20 slices of pizza to set a new personal best. My previous best was 17 in 1997, when I was a lot fatter and had more practice at these things. My team are going to take it in turns to sit with me an adjudicate. The Bracknell news is going to come along too - I think a story and a picture will be going in some time soon.

***Update**** Achieved! I managed 20 slices in 1 hour and 20 mins. The first 10 went down in 17 mins - easy. It was very difficult from number 16 onwards. I felt very uncomfortable all day and very tired. Looking forward to the gym tomorrow and my swim challenge on Friday. I have been set a target of 70 mins by my boss's daughter who is a swimmer. All I can say is that I will try my best.

2) Swim 100 lengths of the main pool at Bracknell Sports Centre on Fri 29th Aug. My previous best is 70 lengths, so this will be a significant challenge for me!

****Update"""" Achieved! I was aiming for 100 lengths in 1 hour and 10 mins. I actually achieved 104 in that time so very pleased. My shoulders and legs ache a lot.
