Yvette, email me your address and I'll post them to you!! Boots.... good on ya Mal!! You want some with plenty of Gortex and that are waterproof!! :O) Mine are Hunters, but I know there are so many good makes out there its hard to chose!! Word of warning Millets down south weren't great and sold me a rubbish pair so be careful.... wear them round the house for a couple of hours and you'll know if they suit and if not take them BACK!!

No Clare you aren't thick!! You just have other stuff on ya mind!! One piece of advise..... get out and buy a decent pair of walking boots if you haven't got a pair already and start wearing them as often as possible!! SAVES ON BLISTERS LATER!! Pink xx

Julia....pink boots...hmmm i think that may be a problem for Paul, and the other men, but i like your thinking :-)) Pink.....yes please to the sponsorship forms, i need to get moving with them if i plan to bother as many people as possible... Lol, also it will help me sell it to the local college for the football tournament hopefully. As for the being fit part...nearly 39 and hardly ever excercised in my life, let alone recently.....so i am in for a crash course, but what a reason to try for! I am hoping the fact i am such an unlikely looking specimen will help me to gain the sponsorship needed... :-)) Yvette

A maybe's better than a no you guys, got to admit it's a big desision to make, but i do think i'v made the right one now. Better start walking to the shop now rather than going in the car, shouldn't be too hard it's only round the corner, but if you don't hear from me you know it's killed me lol. Your right though Paul where are all the big tough blokes?? ah got it exercice was mentioned lol Clarexx

I agree with the sentiments there Clare, if I can do it (and I'm a definite maybe at the moment lol), then anyone can - I'm VERY unfit ! Is it me, or are the blokes letting the side down a bit here, I see lots of ladies volunteering...

*Clare

*Clare Report 11 Apr 2005 13:41

Yvette, YES BABE he can come in at a later date!! If you are in and want to start collecting sponsorship I can email you a form tomorrow which will start you off!! You have to tell people that it's a trek and that the fund is paying for you to do it, but this is NORMAL so no-one should object! Pink xx
