Hi all and mods, not sure if I am allowed to ask for charity, I've been a member for a long time, but never tried before, if inappropriate then feel free to delete!

Myself and a couple of friends are doing the Crumball Rally, we are trying to raise cash for a couple of charities. I have donated my loyal every day car to the cause and have just started decorating it.

I'm sure most of you have heard of it, it involves a £200 banger, and a 1000 miles trek across France, the Alps, Italy and France again.

Lots of details on my slightly ropey website. If anyone would like to donate then it would be very much appreiciated, it's for charities that are very much important to me having lost my Dad to Cancer.

Many thanks,

Dan

Who is paying for the fuel, hotels and food?

I take it they are as their website gives links to their justgiving pages so any donations goes straight to the charity.

We are camping rather than hotels, and splitting the fuel between the three of us. Any money given goes direct to the charities. This is purely three blokes on holiday but trying to raise sme cash for a good cause along the way!

Yes there are links on the front and the charity page of the website.

Ah, so it's not one of those "Send me on holiday for charidee" then.
OK, I'll chuck a couple of quid in later.

Did you know Bonobo's have sex to greet each other??

On a more useful note, I climbed Ben Nevis recently - I wish I had done it for charity!

Good Good, just checking, I have seen some right piss takes in the past that take the "charity money" spend it on costs and give the rest to the Charity.

I did know yes, it's also the name of my company!! (Bonobo Media Ltd)

Incidentally, they also have sex to say goodbye, fight, make up after a fight with their parents, children and so on! Dirty beggers!!
