All For a Good Cause...

Great idea guys. Well done to both of you.

I will definitely donate and if I am free I might be at the tables as I think everyone has someone in their close cycle who has suffered from this disease..

Maybe you could ask TK and sky to load 1 or 2 tables for this specific purpose and name them accordingly. Maybe make them televised also so the hands played can be analysed on the channel.

Good luck, the 24 hours will fly just remember energy drink, pizza and lots of sugar lol I'll be sure to try and play for a bit and donate.

Thanks for the support guys!

Yeah, I am going to ask the Sky bigwigs about it, and I had considered what you mentioned as well. Never hurts to send a nicely worded email

Larson7 and I have now passed £200 in our little cancer fundraiser, with three and a half weeks to go!
 
I know we will reach our target (especially once I blackmail Hartigan and Orford with those photos...), but feel free to throw a few quid our way in the meantime

Don't use sugar to keep you going, the highs+lows are too quick and sugar crashes will be tough to get through

likewise don't have a big meal. nibble/snack from time to time but on low GI foods such as pasta.

Thanks to ChickenMelt and Teddy for the generosity, much appreciated.

Re food,

I took a gap year to Australia when I was 19. It was they're I discovered Chicken and Cheese Melt! in the town I was staying in. Chicken on a roll, with cheese melted on top, it was the total nuts at the time!

Maybe that'll be my energy food lol bit of good (chicken) with a bit of the bad (cheese)

Yeah, a little birdy tells me it will be over £400 by the end of today. You folks wouldn't make a liar out of me, would you?

LARSON7

Very nice slipwater, everyone lets crush £400 today.

Slipwater

Thanks to DOHHHHHHH and The_Don90 for pushing the total ever closer to £500. It is very much appreciated. I know we can get this above and beyond, perhaps even tonight....
