Had a great morning in London. In aid of CRY, Cardiac Risk in the Young. Seeing loads of people with pictures of children, lost to sudden death, on their shirts was very poignant. Walking across 7 bridges from Tower Bridge upriver and then back. About 6/7 miles. Some fantastic views and landmarks along that stretch of river.
Good one mate. Well done. But what is Cardiac Risk in the Young hoping to achieve? Im being serious. Sensible head on.
12 children die every week in the UK suddenly mate. Their heart just stops beating. Not many people are aware of that. My wife's brother has lost 2 children in the last 5 years. I'd have done myself in already if that was me. CRY raises money for research into this problem and also provides bereavement counselling for families who've lost a young one.
Im a ****. But i wasnt taking the piss. Its aweful mate. I dont know whatelse to say without sounding like a twat. Its a totally worthwile cause. I appauld you. Christ i still read like a twat Well done mate. ****. Ever wished you never started a post? Feeling shamefull. Well done @Blunham Mackem
That's shocking mate, is it hereditary then or has your brother in law just had some very bad luck? Great cause mate, I'll be happy to donate a few quid if you have a link.
Cheers mate. Appreciate the sentiment. I could have posted it on here but I'm daft. I don't like asking people for money. I'd rather whack in a couple of hundred myself than ask others for money. I've just had some stick back in the local for the same thing. I'm still wearing the t-shirt and loads of lads are saying why the **** didn't I say anything. I now like to go through life like the SAS. No one knows I was there. I was a **** a long time ago. I live quietly now.
Cheers mate. It is a good cause. But there are so many good causes which makes it awkward to ask. I won pretty well at Ascot last week, so most of it will go to CRY. There's a big party in the village pub garden today. One of the lads said to me, we could have done the same thing for us. Never occurred to me. We'll do it next year. That'll raise a few grand. I'll get the wife to do it. They love her down there. I'll stay in the background.
Changing the subject. Are you gonna come over for a few beers when we play you? Would be great to all meet up for a few beers.
I would like to before then mate, maybe just catch a neutral game with you boys as its ages til we come there, April next year.
