Thanks for all your generous support

And thanks to those that threw their coppers and golden nuggets into my bucket while I was outside Murphys Bar on that Saturday and Sunday October 21, also while I was on the Parade on the Sunday afternoon.

The prison chain gang collected in excess of £700 and the stint outside Murphys and on the Parade netted £145.

This will all go towards my target figure of £3,300 which I need to complete the Vietnam Cycle Challenge, which I am actually on while you are reading this letter.

If some of the younger prison chain gang were a little over enthusiastic on their collecting, I do apologise, however I would like to single out Shannon Byrne and Christopher Fitzpatrick who both collected a great deal of money, with big smiles and friendly banter all the way.

All of this cash will go to the Cystic Fibrosis Trust. Thank you all once again. - Kevin Murphy, Murphys Bar, Leamington.
