    Alright, off topic but seen as though not a lot is happening at the minute and I'm trying to avoid thinking about coursework/exams I thought I'd get around to posting a thank you article...

    On Monday 2nd me and 4 other lads took part in the Belfast marathon, in an attempt to raise a few more quid we decided to do it dressed as school girls (not a good idea, collars rubbing on sweaty necks results in a dirty red mark that burns like ****).

    Anyway, our time was shocking and we got a fair amount of good natured abuse along the route but it was a good day and more importantly, I managed to raise over £1,100 for children in Uganda which surpassed my target and dwarfed my expectations. (I've since been put with a team from Wales who will be heading to Uganda at the start of July - the day I'm set to graduate...oh well)

    To those of you who donated, I can't tell you how I grateful I am...I suggest you do **** all at work, get a take away, do not housework, watch ****e telly all night and all without the slightest bit of guilt - your good deed for the day has officially been done!

    Here's a little photo of us before the run, just so you can experience the humiliation we felt...Deciding on costumes when drunk is not a good call!

    Once again, thanks to everyone who donated, bumped the page and simply put up with me using the board to scrounge your hard earned cash!

    Congrats on the run and reaching your target.

    You all look like Cold War era East German Fräuleins ;)

    Well done JWAG, I don't even run for five minutes if I'm going to miss a train, dunno how people keep it going for a marathon distance. <applause>

    You've left yourself open to muggers there AG.

    What's your route to the ground again?

    Well done and I hope you have a good time in Uganda! The experience will be absolutely amazing! £1,100, that's awesome!! The costumes are pretty funny, you should have dressed up as your favourite old school footballers though instead of embarrassing yourselves that much! Well done again!!
