Story

As some of you are aware? I wanted to run an outdoor charity event this summer, in an attempt to raise some funds for Blessing in Disguise. Unfortunately, we don't seem to be having a summer this year so I decided to attempt something else instead!

I'm going on a night out…But...it's a night out with a difference!  I’m planning to stay out over night on top of a mountain in the Lake District, on mi own, in a little tent; hopefully this Sat.I'm unsure of distance of the circuit; maybe about 10 miles; up the valley, up the mountain, over the tops, then back down at the far end of the valley, but I do know that it's 2,326ft to the top!

All I need now is a driver!  Any volunteers?? See pics of where I'll be heading (lump on the left).  Yes... I'll have the camera with me...that's fer sure!  But if the clouds & rain come, I'm in serious trouble! But...I'm prepared to risk that for these children coz they deserve all the help they can get.

Cheers in advance peeps! God luv ya.
