allo folks

well I just thought I'd give you a little update as we have now officially finished all of our main fundraising events for this years Italian Job, just 7 weeks before we set off for the start in Imola amazed.pngcheesey.png

as his contribution to our sponsorship, Kev (KillerByte) kindly offered to set up a website for us, which will contain some information about Teams 50 & 51, information about the actual event itself, a list of sponsors etc, as well as a blog for us to update while we are away biglaugh.png my cousin came up with some logo ideas for us and Kev has now set up the website - it's still missing some content, but the majority of it is now live and we are extremely chuffed with it. A massive thanks to Kev for setting it up for us and the ongoing work with it, and to my cousin Steve for all the work he did with the logo smile.png

then, and quite possibly the most interesting if not dangerous and nail biting, we visited SRE Recovery and Rescue in Croydon for a little bit of a fun photoshoot amazed.pngcheesey.png

the next event we attended was our second motorshow - Shoreham Airport Motorshow (despite the heavy winds on the Saturday night destroying part of the motorshow, we managed to get our marquee back up, although slightly buckled!), which Mike Brewer was hosting again

our last and most recent event, last Bank Holiday Monday was the Worthing Rotary Club Carnival Procession. Big thanks to the Red Bull girls that came along and helped out

We also paid a trip to KidsOut recently as well as a few other events too. As you can see, we have had a busy 9 months, and this hopefully gives everyone an insight into some of the things we get up to throughout the year and proves that your sponsorship doesn't actually pay for us to have a holiday, it does all go to charity there are a few bits and pieces over the next couple of weeks but that's it now really, so it's time to relax until we leave if anyone would like to contribute towards our target, please click on the link for Team 50 on the website, we really appreciate any help. The direct link to our Justgiving page is www.justgiving.com/italianjobteam50 - thank you
