The Team United at Last!

So Rawson at last returned...

The whole team last night spent many a fine hour drinking the night away and playing with the Ebay purchases and other donated articles already collected by the team. Lisa spent several hours this morning attempting to work the two camcorders specially bought to attach to the richshaw! (With minor success I might add...

There was some brief dress up involving Biggles, Hats (which I am sure Lisa slept in) and the wrapping of a small child in an emergency tin foil type thing! Although dissapointed about Sarah's onjection to trying him on Gas mark 5 for a few hours but never mind parents will be parents I suppose...

The next meeting is to come soon although getting together all at the same time does prove slightly difficult with Sarah's child commitments and extreme cleaning OCD issues, my working very strange unsociable hours between the NHS and being a weekend doorman and Lisa's social calander!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the people who have donated and have promised to donate after christmas and would like you all to let the world know about our upcoming adventure so they may if they would like to send a donation our way... 'Every Little Helps' said someone who is nothing to do with tesco once probably said so I am not infringing on any copy right laws!

A Rawson Returns

**NEWS FLASH!!!** 

 

So the clock is ticking and the timer counting down for the return of ***Lisa Rawson***, Her first time back in Blighty for a good long while (Years) she is about ready to get on a plane for the next 24hours and head home from Australia!

***Sarah Rawson*** (Her Big sis) along with her ***Nephews*** and ***friend*** are awaiting in anticipation of her impending arrival and getting the car ready for a journey down to Heathrow in what could be a snow storm of an adventure in its own right given the current conditions. Will the make it safely back to Nottinghamshire? We Hope So!!!

Come Sunday there will be a gathering in Mansfield which is where the girls originate from and the whole team will eventually be together for the first time since this hair brained idea came into our heads. It is also the place where ***Stephen Dawson*** also spend many a night with his friends enjoying a cheeky drink or two!

I would like to ask you to visit our ***JustGiving*** page [***www.justgiving.com/simon-bingham-ward***](http://www.justgiving.com/simon-bingham-ward) to take a look and we hope you will donate generously!

Sunday is a night for Lisa to catch up with old friends but also a great opportunity for the **RICKSHAW REVELLERS** to talk routes, compare Ebay purchases and get merry and chat babble for prolonged periods of time...

Spend Spend Spend

So the preparation has already begun, Simon is borderline harrassing colleagues for sponsorship at work, and is doing a great job...keep it up Simon, just don't lets get a lawsuit happening just yet...

Lisa is busying herself on Amazon trying to find essentials...which leads to....

Sarah having mystery packages turn up on a daily basis of random bits of kit such as water purification tablets and a wire saw which her child attempted to help us test on her dining room table. 

The anarchy begins with such excitement bring on December when the whole team is in on the same continent and rattling tins at drunken people taxing them for entry into clubs and pubs in an effort to raise money for The British Heart Foundation.
