Stage 13: Caution - bare flesh content - viewer discretion advised Rocked up to meet the barking North East mob (that's North East mob who are barking, rather than the Barking (North East)) at Bishop Auckland. I've been mentioning some light whining noises for a few days, but to be honest I just tho...

STAGE 6: Day 2 (3rd September 2016) After enjoying the hospitality in Aberdeen the previous evening, Mike and I set off early to ensure we arrived at our first hospice stop in Edinburgh in good time. It was only just light when we left the hotel and quarter to six but we did meet a number of student...

NO No No. Please do NOT do this. Only individuals may donate this way and to do so using others donations would contravene all the licences etc. we have had to obtain. Any money collected in aid of Marie Curie should for the time being be retained by the branch (in their bank account). After the mar...

STAGE 3-5: Had an awesome, albeit brief, visit to the Edinburgh Marie Curie Hospice earlier this morning, and had a tour of the facilities. Met up with David and his rather gorgeous dog Brodie, and Peter and Ann-Marie McCallum who very kindly answered our appeal for wine gums! [frame] http://mmoc.or...

Morris. Minor Centre, Birmingham are covering the cost of the fuel we use on the marathon. Thanks so much g...

STAGE 2 Update from Bruce: Well, that's day one completed and what a day it was. Really thrilled with the support team who made it all the way to John O'Groats to be there for the off. Even managed to get some good support from the guys from McLaren Racing who were doing the North Coast 500 to test ...
