That's a good shout, didn't think of TV....

I'm back off alcohol for four weeks (so the plan goes anyway), so there's no funding my boozing haha.

It's not gonna be cheap to get going, unless we get a big(ish) company to help with petrol etc.

My chosen charity will be the Brain Tumour Trust, something obviously very close to my heart after my dad passed away.

Would be amazing if you guys could back us, even small donations will be very helpful. Very excited to do this.

Anyone else surprised that Mark's BFF is an Indian and a Muslim?

I reckon you could get some good publicity/support using twitter/facebook to contact radio stations etc.
I worked for a charity for a while and we always got good support from local radio when doing fundraising events.

If you tell me where and how Jack, I'll give you a bit of cash

Also maybe try getting support via your respective uni's? Have them send out emails to all students and staff etc?

As Colin said, local radio, local papers etc... Hopefully you can rack up some sponsorship for the petrol costs and in turn more donations for charity.

Get hold of a video camera, make quick short records (or a camera with a picture) of each ground, and then stick it all together at the end.

I don't have BFFs because I am not 13 years old.

And he's Muslim in name and for appearances only.

I think you're a bit old for imaginary friends Mark. We've all seen your posts per day ratio, you don't need to pretend you have friends

Appreciated Tom. We will be setting up a website for donations, which will include info. I know Ben is sending an email to one of his tutors to see if she can put out a press release. I will attempt to do something similar. I've written for the student newspaper before, so will be contacting them as well.

We're going to be getting a picture of us outside each ground (logos behind us hopefully) as well as doing a video blog at the end of each day, and possibly a written blog too.

I'm going to email the clubs and see what we can get from them, and Ben is going to enquire about a bit of national/local publicity. Attempts from a few people have been national news, and we aim to exclipse what others have done, so could well be a possibility of something there.

If you get Colin to walk around Edinburgh for a day in a mankini, I'll treble my donation

I love you though

I miss the old Planetcricket. Back when there was barely a pube on my testicles.

Simpler days.

 

[puddleduck]

These days there's at least double figures?

Whatever happened to Matt, Culli? How come he got cool enough to migrate away from here but you didn't?

I just came back to remind you about beating you on PES.

 

[puddleduck]

I seriously doubt that ever happened.

Haha, shows how long ago it was, people were actually playing PES
