On 7 March 2024 your 4 HandsomeHeros - Alex, David, Deven, Will - plus Jo (without an 'e' so doesn't like the idea of being called Handsome) will be taking part in a Firewalk Challenge involving walking barefoot across burning embers. We've been promised adequate training and have somehow been convinced it is completely safe. St John's Ambulance have been put on alert. What could possibly go wrong.

If you can donate to this fantastic charity, close to all our hearts, we would be extremely grateful. And we promise there will be photographic/video evidence.
