Special Announcement

Hi everyone.

Now earlier I said i had some special news. Some of you may remember that a few years ago, mum and dad and dad and their friends did a 100 mile walk for charity to help a very special little girl.

Well the fools have all decided to do another one to help lots of special little girls and boys.

As you know I was in hospital for two months after i was born, and the only reason i am here now is because of the hard work and dedication of the nurses and doctors at the Kings Mill Neo-Natal Intensive Care Unit.

The Fellspotters are going to be doing a walk in April to help raise money for this special care unit. They are planning to walk the Yorkshire Three Peaks. The Yorkshire Three Peaks Walk is a very demanding but rewarding walk, which takes in the summits of Pen-y-ghent (694 metres - 2,276 feet), Whernside (736 metres - 2,415 feet) and Ingleborough (723 metres 2,372 feet) all in one circular route. The walk is 24.5 miles (39.2km) long and takes in over 5,000 feet (1,600 metres) of climbing.

Training is already well under way, and as you can see Uncle Kimbo is really taxing the fools. This is a shot that was taken at Stoney Middleton in Derbyshire, just hours before the river broke!!! Serious stuff.

I know that there are lots of demands on people to help charity work out but i think you will all agree this is one situation where you can definately see the benefits of your support.

So if anyone would like to sponsor either mum and dad, your support will be gratefully appreciated. Just drop them a text or email.

I personally will not be doing the walk as i am not stupid!! I will be running riot with Grandad GT, and Grandma and Grandad!

Thank you so much for whatever support you can give.
