Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my page.

It was Saturday 10th August 2013. The familiar haunt of the Morgan Arms was the backdrop for an unusual suggestion. Conversation turned to Brian Harvey's unfortunate potato related accident (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-358451/Harvey-blames-potatoes-bizarre-car-accident.html) , and it inspired us.

So the challenge has been set. I have 30 minutes to eat 4 gigantic jacket potatoes. Something needs to come from it besides the puddle of vommit when I puke my way to an unfortunate failure after biting off more than I can chew (literally and figuratively).

So I'm inviting you to donate some money to famine suffering orphans in Malawi. I'll send you the video of me attempting the challenge if you do.

NB: The first 4 people to donate £25+ can nominate ANY filling of their choice (within reason) for the potatoes. No excrement, though. Please no excrement.

It's a light hearted challenge but hopefully it raises awareness of a serious situation, so please give generously if you can, as every penny is going towards helping an awful situation.

Thanks pals.
