Story

Hello There!

Now: You have a choice; Read the How/Why or cut straight to the Basics!

How/Why: Last week I found myself on the Stage at the Walkabout Beach Babe Contest in Temple - All in aid of gaining my 33rd Bikini (bit of an obsession!   ).

http://www.walkabout.eu.com/12beachbabesSoon.html

That day I had picked up 2 Breast cancer care pins (one for me, one for my Mum - who bravely had a full mastectomy last May). I wore mine for good luck (as Mum is one of the most outgoing people I know) as it gave me confidence when I touched it (You try wearing a tiny bikini in a colour you'd never usually pick!).

 Through a quirky series of events (4ft entrants, a partially sighted judge and 5 refusals by other girls to wear a tiny banana yellow bikini ) I won!

So I'm through to the Regional Final on 2nd November at Temple Walkabout!

So how can I do something fun and make a difference?!

 By getting sponsored to take part in the event, that is how!

 Either one flat rate - or per wolf whistle!!!!

 As for the Grand Prize of a trip for two to Australia? I will put the other ticket out there to auction, with the proceeds going to cancer care too.

 Am I crazy - slightly! But hey, Mum got great support and this is a way that I can make a difference too (after all I was quite clearly not built for running!).

 I would also like to donate something to a testicular cancer charity – can anyone advise?

 So please support me.

Donate your time - support me in the final - the more wolf whistles the merrier!

Donate your cash - that is what it's all about!

Donate your services - if it helps me look pretty enough to win!!

The Basics: Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. 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: Breast Cancer Care 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.

 Jo – Temple Walkabout Beach Babe winner!!!

 P.S - a special thanks to:

 Dean, Jimmy, Adam and all the staff at the Temple Walkabout for making me feel so welcome.

Team Jo - Big Al, Mick (aka Love), Ollie n Tim, Jean Jeanie, Tamzin. The rest of my angels Suze and Maria.
