Story

<p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;"> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. So why am I going to Base Camp Everest?</p> </span><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">When we ended our Husky safari up in the Arctic circle last January (see photo) the boys said &ldquo;so next year base camp Everest then&rdquo; and without thinking I said &ldquo;Ok why not&rdquo; before realising what I might have let myself in for!</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">Then and quite independently our company decided to support the Prostate Cancer charity for the coming year so I began putting two and two together a) I discovered that the charity have a base camp trip in their programme b) I needed to get fit (pronto). Hey presto super-fit Phil would of course find sponsors and raise money for Prostate Cancer. </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> </span><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">The problem is that the second part of this looks a lot easier than the first!</span></p> </span><strong><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;"> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
