Story

The Back Story

We are a group of 10 friends working together in Dublin. From August to May, 90% of our conversations are spent discussing our Fantasy Football League. That's because at the end of the year, we make the overall loser of the league complete a forfeit. 

As always the forfeit is publicly embarrassing for the loser, and this year we decided to use that public attention not just to shame our friend who lost, but also to do some good in the process. We are taking this opportunity to raise some money for a great cause that deserves the help.

The Forfeit:

We are embarrassing our friend Bernard by sending him around the UK (fly into east midlands, find his way to Birmingham, then home from there). Bernard will travel alone, all day, in a Pink "My Little Pony" Jumper and a leopard-print skirt. 

Throughout the day, Bernard must complete annoying tasks that we have assigned and take pictures to prove he has done them. He will be doing all of this while the rest of us are in the pub, enjoying our end of season party - needless to say, the rest of us are all very glad we didn't lose. 

Fair play to Bernard, he's taking it very well and hopefully you can support him in raising some money for a great cause.

We would really appreciate anything you can give.
