I will certainly bear it in mind in the future though and donate direct like I ended up doing with this. It would have been dead easy for me even without being able to donate via their own web page as I know several people in Dorchester that raise a lot for Weldmar anyway.

Only because you've shown a bit on interest, you might find this of worthy note if you are trying to coordinate a fund raising effort. http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/family/charity-fundraising-sites#each End of the day, these sites are better than dropping coins in a bucket, but they require effort, as you've already done, donating directly is the best option.

We have met and he knows how much we admire Gerry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was doing a proper 'in tribute' he'd go through the rest of the runners with one gurt big sliding tackle before they get to Pulteney Bridge!

I can`t get the Bristol ITV down here and watch Points West on Sky 966. Anyhow, glad you got to see it Dolls, I expect it was the same coverage BBC had.
