“I’m singing Love Me Tender to my arse…”
We all appreciate the effort Grant!

MESSAGE FROM GRANT

- Here’s some photos to prove I was there and to show off some great landscapes : https://gld.smugmug.com/Events/RAB2019
- If you are interested in some rambling reflections, you can read them here: https://gldbt.blog/rab-2019-fundraising
- Finally, many many thanks to everyone who has supported in whatever way – either by comment and/or funds, even humorous abuse. And to Barbara who supported me through the training, encouragement, planning skills and who came up to fetch me. It kept all me going when the going got tough. Trite and true.
Over and out on this! Grant
