James and Stevo go way back so I'm sure thats a possibility. Was gonna make a comment about how cheerleaders might take my mind off the 150+ miles but then remembered how old some of ours are. We're doing a twitter appeal (anyone feel free to follow mine and RT) for players past and present to support this. Im a budding Boxing journalist so have some media links, again anyone feel free to take this to anyone when we get it all confirmed (and I repeat, this WILL happen).

Think the hardest bit would be getting people to the North East for the early stages. And if we think about it, getting attention and publicity here will be the hardest. Walking round 'fax, Leeds etc. will be the most fun part. Expecting first class banter followed by a donation or else....

I underestimated how difficult it is going to be . Am used to being on my feet all day , but that is no help at all . you would be shocked at where you get sores when you strap a rucksack to your back with three gallons of water in it and go for a VERY long walk . Can barely walk downhill atm . Uphill is easy . And for some reason my ass cheeks are sore . ( no i didn't get bummed as i walked through the woods before you ask lol ). I did get shot at by some very nice person with an air-rifle . Think they were trying to knock my orange hat off .

Have you tried those walking poles? They helped me do the three peaks, especially the downhill bits when I had cramp.

Pages 8 and 9 in the latest Forty-20 magazine . A rather large article giving a brief history of James and Andy .

Think this can be cut adrift now .

Had a call today from a lady involved with the housing project that James Olsen lives in . I explained the situation , and she said she is going to have a word with his mum and get things rolling regarding refunds .
