Life presents us with opportunities...

I've been given the opportunity to spend the weekend climbing the 3 highest peaks in Britain within 24 hours with a bunch of sweaty, smelly comedians - all because Martin Bigpig asked me if I wanted to do it. So I thought about it for a few seconds and said, "Why Not?"

You have been given the opportunity to help Act4Africa make a difference in the lives of real people by sponsoring me and the other comedians in our mammoth attempt at masculine, adventurous glory. We must succeed or else we face an assortment of serious cramps, tortuous knees, enormous blisters, and ritual humiliation from a bunch of the sharpest-tongued gagsters in the business.

You can read about the other comedians and our benefit shows on our No Laughing Matter website.

Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Act 4 Africa 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.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
