“I never thought I’d do that……” A personal goal achieved, a box ticked, an amazing experience and more. That was my London Marathon. When Mr Walker first mentioned running the marathon last June, it sounded like one of those fantastic ideas (especially as I was promised thirty other people were running) and something that as a
What a fantastic experience I had running the London Marathon. It was so special to run through London and end up finishing on The Mall. The weather was a nightmare for running – so very hot – but on the plus side it brought the crowds out who were unbelievable and very supportive. There were bands
24th to 28th June 2007 It all began – as I believe almost all great plans begin – down the pub. Myself and two good friends were sampling a reasonable selection of particularly refreshing beverages, whilst discussing the possibility of a project we could engage ourselves in.

I decided to cycle the west coast of Ireland from my home in Kilsyth, with my brother-in-law Billy McDonald and brother Con Bonner, to raise money for a worthwhile cause and enjoy the scenery on the way – along with a few pints of Guiness! We cycled from Kilsyth to Troon, a distance of 62 miles,
A charity football match (15th April 2007) in memory of a beloved son, brother, boyfriend, grandson, nephew and friend (Graeme Blenkinsop) was held to raise money for CRY and St Mary’s Hospital Breast Care Trust Fund. Both charities are very dear and important to the family and friends of Graeme. Graeme was a keen sportsman and
8th June 2007 When Blackdown announced that they would play the King’s Arms at Fernhurst, it raised the question could the boys rock such a major venue and keep the crowd buzzing for a show running more than 2 hours? With a masterful display of musical talent, the band quelled any doubts, keeping the enthralled audience
