Dave's sponsored Walk - I finally did it!
Permalink Closed

Hi Folks, well me and Ivor took advantage of the early morning quiet and the amazingly good weather to trek round Strathclyde Park this morning, so commitments all done I need your money!! With the pledges so far I have raised £520 and if everyone pays up that means I can claim another £500 from my employers..


For any of you who have pledged if you want to send me a cheque just PM or email me for address details, if you want to be a bit more technologically advanced I've created a page on the just giving website which will accept donations via credit or debit card using a secure server, just click here!

I took a couple of piccies round the loch, the last one even turned out quite arty!


This is at the bottom of the loch, about quarter of the way around..



and here's the arty one from the top of the loch, three quarters of the way around!

Only joking Dave, well done on raising such a fantastic amount and taking some really lovely pics. Hope Ivor is getting sardines for tea after his effort!!

That's great - what a fantastic amount to have raised.  The weather smiled on you too - it was a cracking day.  I was sailing all day yesterday and today in Polaris Regatta out on the Clyde.  Better day for walking than sailing - wind was a bit patchy.


Congratulations on your walk and bit pat to Ivor!  Lovely pictures of the Loch.

Well done Dave and Ivor. I might try the advanced method of giving my pledge.


Anyway well done Dave and one way or another I will get the amount pledged to you.


Nicki and wee Janie.x

Hi Dave!


 


Well done on making it round!!!  If we donate using the the online method, do you still get all the money, or is some of it lost in fees?

Hi Sharon, the nice people at Just Giving do take a very small commision on each donation and they also take a small monthly fee however it's pretty convinient for us and they do process the Gift Aid part of the donation automatically (thus saving us mountains of paperwork!)

Well done, Dave! As promised, your sponsorship money is winging its way to you over cyberspace via the Justgiving website.

Well seen from your photos that you got considerably better weather for your walk than the rest of us did for ours!

Folks, just a quick reminder, if you pledged a donation and haven't paid yet please send your money in or pay with my Just Giving page (this expires on the 23rd so you only have a few days to use it!) Once I get all the money in I can hit my employeers for the extra £500!!...
