Hi Jerry,

Just confirming that I stand by my original pledge of £5.00 per double and a "bonus" of £30 if the fourteen are achieved totalling £100....good luck to you and the lads. I'm sure that you will relieve my wallet of a sheckel or two.

Regards

Bill W

Received this letter the other day for the army benevolent fund, this soldier as well as others is the reason for raising money via the barbel society barbel challenge




We are also now down to 2 anglers myself and Paul floyd

Donations so far have raised just over £500 on the just giving page www. Justgiving.com/jerry-gleeson

We have also had pledges from about 10 people sponsoring us per fish caught

Any donation now matter how small all helps

Come on lads, in the memory of Lee Rigby if not the many others, shake the piggy bank and either pledge or make a donation. The price of a couple of pints will go a long way....
 
Time for a reminder lads...just pledge or donate the price of a few kg's of bait...:)

In case any of you chaps think Jerry and I are lovers, I've only met him the once....I just believe STRONGLY in his cause....
