This weeks sees TeamHonk spring into fundraising action with a host of fun-fundraising activities. We kick off today with something for the hardcore mo fo’s out there… yes siree come Saturday 2nd March we’ll be climbing Mount Snowdon and suffice to say that we need you! Yes you, you there looking shifty, not maintaining eye contact – I know you are reading *stares hypnotically* You don’t have to be super fit – crikey look at the state of me!
I’m going to cut to the chase, bring out the big guns and ask straight out. Penny and I will have a thermos of gin and pants over our leggins (just don’t tell her that bit yet) … who’s up for joining us? Yep I know it’s miles from anywhere, I know it requires much effort but *flicks hair seductively* we’re worth it. More to the point raising money for Red Nose Day and Comic Relief to carry on doing the epic good work that we’ve been sharing is worth it. If you are interested in coming along drop us a line at hello@teamhonk.org and we’ll email you the details / places to stay locally / times / love and eternal gratitude…
If a day of extreme fun, laughter and gangnam styling* your way up Snowdown just isn’t your bag fear not – there are more fundraising ways coming from us this week which you can support, and of course needless to say if you’d care to sponsor TeamHonk do Snowdon (which is not meant to sound like Debbie does Dallas in any way, shape or form you flith mongers) then you are more than welcome to and can do so here on> The #TeamHonk Snowdon Challenge Red Nose Day Giving Page!
Tanya has her own crazy-ass fundraising planned and is being represented for this challenge by husband Brucie (Barrow – not Forsythe) and teenage son Johnnie – the team is growing already – please join is!
People climbing so far are: Me, Penny from The Alexander Residence, Danielle from It started with a Squish, Nikki from Stressy Mummy and Emily from A Mummy Too, Mummy Barrows husband and son
Now who’s got some vaseline I can borrow… #chaffing
Important shizzle: You will need good supportive shoes, preferably walking shoes, a waterproof jacket and warm clothing, including a hat and gloves and a rucksack with food and drink.

Aaaaaaaarrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhhhh! I can’t make it! I have a wedding gig already booked for that weekend! I will sponsor though!
Ticked off I can’t be with you – I can send cake to keep you going if it helps!

Not to worry, it’s short notice I know – and thank you – cake is always good! I can tell myself it’s all about the sugar keeping my energy up can’t I?!

Who ever takes part you are in for a real treat, the views are beautiful especially on a clear day. Please also take care whilst up there it may seem like a walk in the park but honestly things can change in a second, you don’t want to have to (that doesn’t sound right) be saved by mountain rescue (or maybe you do I hear Prince William covers that area).
You guys are amazing.

Thanks my dear
I climbed it back in 1994 and the weather did change quite dramatically then. We’ll have a professional guide with us so will be in good hands. Penny insisted – if it was left to me we’d be staggering in circles weighed down with tins of gin!

What an amazing personal challenge and fundraiser. Would love to do it, but can’t unless I make walking to Snowdon part of the fundraising effort, which means *looks at watch* I would have to start making a move round about…NOW! Will def be cheering/tweeting you on though, and will support Comic Relief nonetheless.

You ladies are fabulous! I can’t join, my back barely lets me walk 50m never mind climb a mountain but I shall sponsor you (if DWP pull their finger out!). And of course I shall keep an eye out for anything that I may be able to join in with. Xx

You are totally bonkers. Sadly I’m taking GG to an amateur school production of Grease – which obviously will be WAY more fun (?) and with far less chance of getting a blister.
However I shall ask Actually Daddy if he is free to get lost in the clouds with you

Love you

I have a a whole mental pom pom image in my mind now – are you dressed up as a cheerleader?!
I can’t believe it, I have my hen night that night there’s no way I’d be back in time to celebrate with the lovely ladies who’ve gone to the trouble of organising for me. I’m gutted! Change the date by any chance?????
No thought not. I’m hoping there will be something else happening that I can join in #fingerscrossed
