Thanks Peter. 
It was so good to see everyone & as you said, it was proper dark first thing. (Apart from when I was flashed by a speed camera outside Chapter One at just gone 6.00am!)
We found a great route down there which I plan to add to one of our Sunday runs, what great roads. 
Events like this focus the mind & make us realise how lucky we are to be blessed with healthy families & it’s such a pleasure doing something we love & being able to improve the lot of these lovely families at the same time. 
I’m going to post a link to the Just Giving page again later.  If anyone could find it in their hearts to make a donation, no matter how small, it would make an incredible difference. 
Big hugs all round. 
NickPs. The TBR organisers did a tribute to Neil that reduced me & she to tears. More details to follow but Cathy H, if you’re reading this & haven’t seen my text yet please can you get in touch when it suits? 07931 371983.

Thanks to Nick again for leading the way once again today on a great and very worthwhile Teddy Bear run. It was still (very) dark this morning as we pulled out of Clacket Lane services so the thoughtful addition of Declan’s audible ‘follow me’ sign was most welcome. (I do see what Nick means about breathing oxygen though!)Not sure how much the TB Run made but it was well attended on a dreary day. Results will be posted on FB in due course I believe. Well done to all.

We should all have the email re final destination/times etc so any thought re the best way to Goodwood on Sunday?
As I will have the best satnav in the world sitting next to me I know it won’t be an issue but keen to hear your thoughts….I might even let someone else lead! (But not Declan…obvs, as I value my eardrums & like to breath air with some sort of oxygen content, so he’s going up the back!)😜

 There’s a reserve list but it’s quite long

Thanks for organising; Cheryl and I are looking forward to it. Clackett at 0645am sounds good.
Only caveat is we hope to find somewhere quiet to watch the final race of the F1 season at 1pm...but looking at the schedule that should be okay 🙂

One side of my windscreen washers aren't working though so hope weather is okay...if anyone has a 4mm hose connector kicking around let me know...
Thanks Sam

Hi all.

 

Paul would usually be posting this but sadly he is unable to join us this weekend for reasons beyond his control.

 

As such, lets sort a cunning plan to get us to Goodwood on Sunday morning.

 

First thing I could do with is a list of friends who will be joining us on the day so please can you confirm if you’re coming with us?

 

We need to be at Goodwood for about 8.30am so it’s been suggested we meet at Clacketts Lane Services (westbound) at 6.45am. I’m more than happy to discuss the route on here but it should take about 1.5hrs, possibly less that time of day. I haven’t been to Goodwood for a while so happy to take advice from those of you who’ve been there more recently re the best way to get there.

 

You should have an email from Wesley with a disclaimer you will need to complete & bring with you, don’t forget they are asking for us all to do a lateral flow test on Saturday evening which makes perfect sense as we will be amongst some very poorly children & their families for much of the day. You will also need a printed copy of your ticket or your QR code to show on arrival.

 

We should be getting an email tomorrow (Thursday) re our final destination & if I recall there will be a couple of options with the route, tunnels are involved! Something else we can chat about on here or make a final decision on the day.

 

As I haven’t done a Teddy Bear Run for a while any tips gratefully received so feel free to comment as required if you think it will help.

 

All the best

 

Nick
