Gidday my lovelies,

Well, it’s all on for the weekend. Team Shaken Not Stirred have had the last training walk (including a run to the top of One Tree Hill on Sunday, far canal....) and now we are at the business end of the whole event.

Yes indeed, at 7.00am this Saturday 10th April 2010, we will be on the start line in Taupo with 100km’s of track, trail and paddock ahead of us but it is all for a great cause. Oxfam New Zealand do amazing work all over the Pacific region and it is a real pleasure to be doing something to help.

Thanks to all of you who have contributed to the team, especially those who took time out of your weekend to come into Howick and watch me make a fool out of myself busking. The local pubs have offered me a gig every Saturday night. It starts 10 minutes before closing to make sure everyone clears out….!!

Anyway, we are always looking for more donations especially now with a week out. Appreciate that times are tough but any and all contributions will be gratefully received. Check out the link below to our team page and if you feel the urge then feel free to hit the big green “Donate Now” button at the top right hand side:

Ok then, ‘nuff from us. We will be in Taupo at the weekend if anyone is looking for us. Just ask for Shaken Not Stirred.

Have a great week and thanks again
