Thanks very much for the donation mate!

I still have a way to go, so I hope a few more will dig deep and help out!?

I will be posting plenty of pictures after the event and even some before with me on the starting line. I have a few relatives in London so hopefully they will take a stack of pictures on my behalf.

Thank you to everyone who has offered their support and kind words so far......

🙂
