Hello,

I know that I've been pestering you all on-and-off with various appeals over the last fourteen years but this is the one that means the most and I really wish I was not doing all this again.

A couple of weeks ago one of my favourite people should've turned 54. That Geoff didn't is down to blood cancer, more specifically Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia.




My challenge takes place during September: it's over 1000 miles in 10 days between some of the Cure Leukaemia centres in the UK. The target is a mighty £5000. That's a lot to ask, especially in these times...if we get there, I'll put £1000 in.

That's it, that's the pitch. Time to get on my bike innit?

If you can help at all, please follow this link...

As ever, a big thank-you to BV for allowing me to post this and to harass you extraordinary IORRians!

All the best,

Simon.

Good Evening,

Introducing a new and regular Friday night feature: very much hoping that you are either in a generous mood, just been paid or have taken drink, or ideally all three!

Massive thanks to you dancers that have donated to Cure Leukaemia already (the latest good eggs are Mike, Hansie, Adrian, Mike and Gazza): know that although I promise you a beer or two, the odds are stacked against you ever collecting, hah-hah!

However this Friday finds you, have a good one…cheers!

This is the link if you are able to help at all...

Please forgive the weekly bump in the hope of getting a couple of donations to Cure Leukaemia...just gone through the £1000 mark, so a massive thank you to those generous folk. Nice one!





Yeah, I know it's been a while since the last show but Mick has a point, hah-hah!

Good evening all!

Sorry to pollute the IORR timeline once more but it's for the best of reasons...a great big thank you to DandelionPowderman for donating yet again...nice one Bård: one of these days I hope to get to see you and the band play!

If you can spare the cost of a coffee, please have a look at:

Anyway, have a great weekend- I will be out trying to shed a few pounds in the Trough of Bowland (aka The Hurt Locker, hah-hah!). I'm giving Sir Mick (the birthday boy) 24 years and he's in better nick than I am. Gawd, hah-hah!

Cheers,

Simon.

This is SO cool--I'll chip in what I can.

And...I'm going to be hiking up Mt Washington--tallest mountain in the Northeast United States--as part of a fundraiser: the 12th Annual Hike for Mental Health.

Guess I can post here for donations too?

thanks!

Hello,

It's three weeks until the Tour de Geoff kicks off and so far Cure Leukaemia are over £3300 to the good, so a massive thank you to you generous IORRians! (Hackney) Diamonds, all of you!

If you'd like to kick the total towards the target of £5000, then pease don't hesitate...good on you!

Simon.

Best of luck,Simon.

Has you know just made another small donation.
Hope you reach your target.

Hello,

Apparently there's something happening in Stones-land, did I hear?

Well that being so, please forgive this shameless attempt to land a donation or two to Cure Leukaemia. And a big thank you to Tumlin73 for a superb double-donation- nice one Mike!

Listen to what The Man says! IORRians, if you are in a good'n'generous mood, the link to follow is...

We're currently sitting at £4100...it would be ace to edge that upwards. Thanks for reading and on with the show!

Cheers,

Simon.

Hello,

Well the challenge was completed on Sunday afternoon and I was not entirely unhappy to climb off the bike, hah-hah! Two or three of the days threw some of the worst weather that I've ever had the honour to cycle in: absolutely nothing in comparison to those undergoing treatment of course.

The fundraising has gone well...almost at £8,500 and I have to thank a few IORRians for donating so generously yet again (Andy K. being the latest...sorry mate, have forgot your IORR handle).

If you can spare anything, it'll be going to good use. Thank you again and also thank you Bjornulf for allowing me to post this. Good on you all!

All the best,

Simon.

Well done, Simon.

Great total as well.

Right on
