As some of you may know Quentin has embarked on a bike ride across Britain - starting at John O' Groats this morning and finishing (we hope!) at Lands End on Sunday 20th June – some 1000 odd miles and 72k foot of climb - a desperate attempt to lose weight, fight off old age and calm down his mid life crisis (and possibly avoid the start of the world cup, not to mention childcare!)
Needless to say any money he can raise in the process is a benefit so begging cap in hand...
He is a Trustee of a charity called Access Sport (www.accesssport.co.uk) which helps take kids off the streets through funding community sports clubs so that is one cause we'd like you to help and the other is a charity called Woodland Trust (www.woodlandtrust.org.uk ) which he has selected to remember 2 very good friends of ours who died last year, before their time, and thought it would be nice to have some permanent reminders of their lives out there in the countryside. So the choice is yours, either are great causes and you can get some sense of perverse pleasure thinking about the damage to his backside that the whole event is going to cause...
Thanks a lot for your support.
Lets hope they don't go mouldy and bilateral amputation needed. Suggest lots of dancing on Sunday night at Land's End.
ReplyDeleteAnd what sort of shoes have you got anyway?
I reckon Lisa'll still be walking the dogs for a while when Q gets back with those feet! Have you named them?!
ReplyDeleteAre you on look peddles with shoes with carbon fibre soles? I'm all for the double amputation!
ReplyDeleteI refuse to walk the dogs (or children) post Monday - it is then PAY BACK TIME ! : )))
ReplyDeleteI would suggest q should have tried doing a bit of training before he attempted this rather than drinking too much Guinness with Algy!
ReplyDeleteI think your awesome boys, it must be downhill from here surely!
