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......

🙂

At least you bumped this. Donations had slowed down since it left the first page.

No doubt after she meets up with you again Shelly she will realise how much she is missing home.

Have a great trip!
