My story

 

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

You might think one lunatic Banger Run would be enough, but no! This time it's South-East we go, on the inaugural Sucata Split. To improve weight distribution in the vehicle we welcome a 4th member to the team, the hopefully unflappable Dougie.

There will be (probably) fewer Michelin starred bistros, (certainly) more food ending in "wurst", (hopefully) the Nurburgring and Stelvio, and (worryingly) maps of Croatian minefields to consult. Oh, and the small matter of relying on an aging Citroen XM with appropriately French electronics to get us there.

But the charity's the same. Last time our generous donors got around 20 schools in the developing world linked up to Gemin-i's rafi-ki collaboration network, and a similar result this time would be more than welcome.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Gemin-i.org gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation. So please sponsor us now!

As ever, www.generalignorance.org and www.twitter.com/teamgi will be providing news, sport and culinary updates on an interweb near you, so be sure to tune in.
