Title: Charity Zipline Slide 14th September
Post by: Santino67 on August 23, 2008, 10:52:12 AM
Yes.....I"m mad enough to fly 600ft through the air from a very large ex ship-building crane......But it is for a great cause, the Anthony Nolan trust for luekaemia sufferers.

Anyone fancy finding out more or fancy making a wee donation I"d be very grateful. Cheers to Luckybugur and Billyho for already supporting me.
See you all in London next weekend.

Cheers to Paul McGuinness for his £10 donation while we were playing cash on Sunday at the Vic. Cheers also to the guys at my table who made numerous donations by passing their chips in my direction till 3am  ;D

I will, of course take some of this and add it to my fund  8)
