Round Britain Run Help

[Phoenix]

Hi All

It may not be for me to ask, but it seems that the 'Round Britain Run', may and I say again 'May', do with a little help from some of the locals that are on the route.

Taz, who seems to be doing a grand job, maybe, could do with some help from locals with regards to places to stop for dinner etc.

As locals you know your own areas best, or I hope you do , and could give these lads and lasses, who are raising monies for good causes, a bit of local knowledge as well as a helping hand in finding the best places to stop, fill up, places of interest etc.

We are all, or I hope so, Mini2ers, that care, and if you cannot help financially then a few minutes of your time would help show these runners that Mini2ers do care!

Good try Phoenix, but I fear you will have the same result as I did a few weeks back. Those who are in, are doing a grand job , those who are not are difficult to persuade I'm afraid.

Hope I haven't offended anyone, but it only took a few moments of my time this morning to come up with what i hope is useful information and may help to make the 'Run' a great success, which I think it deserves to be.

As someone not involved in the run itself, it seems such a little thing to do, to help.

Maybe I'm a bit to old fashioned for all this. But I believe you only get back what you put in.

Regards

Don't think this would offend anyone, always seems to be the few 'that do', whenever anything like this is arranged.

You can donate direct thru the website, and get tax relief at the moment, but Gordon Brown is about to slap 17.5% VAT on some charity funding. Time for the revolution to start methinks
