Subject: The return of the IRON MAN...
After last year’s huge press coverage, I shall once again be steaming around London’s streets during Sunday’s marathon as the infamous EXTREME IRON MAN! I will be raising money for Little Havens Children's Hospice. This year I have committed to raise at least £1400 for Little Havens, however, I am hoping to stretch this target. If you would like to see last year’s official caption competition photo and sponsor my housekeeping, please take a look at my Justgiving site; www.justgiving.com/crease. A few people have said that they have experienced problems donating online this year, just drop me an email to let me know how much you would like to sponsor if it is easier and I will make arrangements to collect the money in due course. If you see me washed up on the day, please offer encouragement and if you would like any garments ironed, just shout.Thank you very much for your support. May the irony continue.
