    Oh what a beautiful morning....

    I'll try and provide some updates on the way round, but I say that every year and then get chatting...

    We are just £221 short of the £7k milestone on our fundraising, Would be a great boost this morning if we could top that, see any assistance big or small would be appreciated

    Someone appears to be sorting it
  • Well, I did my 9 mile walk in Malacca, Malaysia, this morning. It was about 30-32 degrees, so I struggled over the last mile or so. I think I need to post on "You know when you are getting old" thread because I needed a sit down and a cup of tea at the end rather than a beer.

    Good to luck to all the Lifers today and support The Upbeats.

    There's a short video of my walk. CARD are definitely active here in Malaysia!

    Just in case you didn't realise you have gone over the £7k now. I am sure there will still be a bit more to come. Well done to all.

    Are those club-bought beers or did you smuggle your own cans in?

    My understanding is that they were given a complimentary beer if they did the walk
  • Brilliant pictures, I can't believe the one that even has a fellow that looks like Derek Hales in it.
  • Well done to all.. great cause, pretty much the only thing related to Charlton that makes me smile these days

    Did it and one dog lasted the whole course. Bit disappointed at the end that in effect there was no end. I just got to back of North Stand then had to wander off. Thought there might have been some sort of reception committee or finish line etc. Anyway good cause, good day, off home for a long soak in the hot tub.

    Arrived home safely
    Lovely to catch up with you all again, beautiful day, wonderful to see the Upbeats again. Total misunderstanding at the gate, Valli was allowed in it was me the steward objected too.
    Just having a coffee before I take JJ for a walk. :)

    Cracking day, really enjoyed the walk and it was a pleasure to meet @ozaddick @Dippenhall and @DaveMehmet for the first time, and of course good to see me old mate @Curb_It again (remembered this time :smiley: )

    Well done all. Look forward to it again next year

    First time entrant this year and really enjoyed it, the weather was perfect too, will definitely be doing this again next year, really enjoyed the route especially through Greenwich.

    If i'm being picky which I shouldn't be really it would have been good if the groups could have been split into fast, normal and slow walkers as my group kind of finished split like that anyway. But still a great day with a great Charlton feeling topped off with a win :smile:
