Sponsored Walk

[Ian]

Today I've spent a couple of hours driving round Surrey trying to work out the shortest route between here and Imber Court for those fine boys and girls who have volunteered to walk to Metropolitan Police. Well worth it though, I've managed to knock half a mile from the previous planned route. Never let it be said I don't know how to enjoy my Sunday's!

 

Just to tempt a few more of you into joining us, it's only 19 miles and virtually flat all the way. Over the next couple of days a complete route will be posted on the Trust website.

 

It's events like this when it's time to stand up and be counted. The Trust will only be as powerful as it's members make it and it needs your help and support. To volunteer to take part in what is a great event or to sponsor those participating, send a message to trust@sloughtownfc.net.

 

Thanks for your support <img src="/images/graemlins/top.gif" alt="" />

Great stuff Ian. I am sure that will make all the difference! For those of you who don't know I am doing the walk this year. Sponsorship would be greatly appreciated and if someone makes an extra special donation to benefit one and all I will just sit in the bar for the duration of the game. Just kidding obviously.

[Ian]

I also hope to have a full list on the Trust web site soon of those to date who have voluntered to take part. Naturally, we're expecting a load more still to come forward!

[Ian]

Someone, I think Andrew, suggested listing those who had volunteered so far for the walk to Metropolitan Police so people could approach them directly regarding sponsorship.

 

Never being one to turn down a good idea, or indeed offers of money for the Trust, below is that very list. I apologise in advance for ommitting anyone who I have handed a form to and not noted their name or who has only told me verbally. If there are any missing or if anyone wants to join us, please send a mail to: trust@sloughtownfc.net

 

Gary Thomas, Emma Gammon, Ian Lathey, Kay Lathey, Mark Radford, Graham Taylor, Martin McCabe, Chris Sliski, Chris Boxall, Alan Harding, John Tebbitt, Glen Riley & Dominic Ashford.

 

Don't forget that for every pound we raise for the Slough League of Friends, my company will match it up to £1,000 so get sponsoring and for those walking, get collecting. <img src="/images/graemlins/top.gif" alt="" />

Putting Martin and Chris S next to each other on the list???? Oooh, you troublemaker Ian!

[GarySTFC]

Putting them together as 'walking buddies' is going to be even funnier!

[Ian]

Firstly, apologies to Liam Roche who I missed off the list. Thanks for taking part Liam.

 

As Gary has indicated, I think we should all have a "walking buddy" so no-one is on their own for the walk. Chris and Martin should make a good pair - I reckon they'll be scrapping before they get to the Co-Op roundabout! <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Remember to bring handcuffs for them Gary!

[Martin]

Fine by me.

 

Given that I could start a row in an empty room perhaps I should be left to my own devices.

[GarySTFC]

Why would I have the handcuffs? Perhaps a quick word in Mr Barrowcliff's ear should sort that one out.....

[Barry Scott]

yes gary, why would you have the handcuffs? Hmm?

[Ian]

Sorry to deviate from the discussion about Gary's handcuffs but I have also left Russell Whitehead off the list of those taking part in the walk. Thanks Russell.

[GarySTFC]

You don't usually mind when we talk about handcuffs Ian.

[Guest]

Bernard Devine needs a form for the walk !!

 

pass it on to me Ian....I will ensure he gets it...

 

thanks for all your hard work too....

 

cheers chris

[Matt]

I'll *probably* come along on the walk too - although not certain - it's not too late is it?

[Ian]

As long as there's time to get there in time to kick off then it's never too late to volunteer to take part! Of course, the earlier people join, the longer it gives them to raise sponsorship money and we could do with loads of that!

 

I can't make Saturday's game but I'll make sure Chris Sliski has a sponsor form to hand over. Cheers Matt.

But that's normally when we're alone, not talking on the forum in public.
