My story

So, Jon and Webfoot wanted to cycle from Lands End to John o'Groats. It was on Webfoot's list of things to do before he turned thirty and Jon simply couldn't imagine London without Webfoot for a few weeks so said he'd go too.
 
Anyway, there they were, happily planning away, when they realised they kept having the same conversation with people. It went a bit like this: 

Them: We're cycling from Lands End to John O'Groats
Person: Wow, that's a long way to ride for charity!
Them: Huh?
Person: Which one?
Them: Urm, well we're not big fans of charity...
Person: How much do you want?
Them: We're just doing it for ourse...
Person: What's the link?
Them: No, we're, like, reeeally selfish...
Person: Here's some money, take it.
Them: We really don't...
Person: Ok, I'll leave it here and walk away

Quite frankly it was annoying. So now they would like a million pounds for children with autism please.

They'll probably ask you every day and carry on even after you've donated. Maybe even after they've done the ride. You will never hear the end of this.
