    Well.

    I am playing utter garbage.  I shall be rooted to the bottom of the leaderboard and have a mountain to climb already!!

    As the only female competitor, I feel a responsibiity to sort myself out!

    So.  Team talk being carried out.  Cup of tea and a chocolate digestive.  Then we are back on it!

    Love the idea of this, had a look through the charities before I decided to sponsor a player and tommyd with centrepoint is the one jumping out as this charity has had influence on me in the past so I would like to sponsor tommyd £25 if that would be ok?

    Great work graham obviously a very decent person and thanks for all your help

    I'll be racing you for the wooden spoon Natalie! :=) Not a great start for me either! Wrong side of break even this year :=)

    Maybe we're just timing our run? Lets hope so!

    Thanks for the post, good to get competitor updates! Keeps the thread "Alive" and generates interest from potential sponsors!

    Who gunna sponsor Natalie for a late run? (Mind you we could be panicking a bit early, 359 days to go! Let's not give up all hope just yet!) :=)

    Cheers Graham

    Just realised I didn't post a link to my charity.

    Here it is:

    http://www.salvationarmy.org.uk/gloucester-house

    They helped my brother "Tim" when family couldn't.

    Unfortunately his is a story that didn't end well. Which is all the more reason why places like this must get the funding they need!

    Thank you for the overwhelming support we have received for this initiative. It's truly humbling.

    Sincerely,

    Graham

    Not stupid Ross, stupid would be not knowing and not asking. Always good to clarify. And yes, your assumptions are correct.

    For further clarification, the prize pool for the main TLB2015 competition comes from the £50 pledges of the Competitors plus sponsor money assigned to "winners" charities.

    The prize pool for the "Tournament Wins" side event comes from the £10 donations made when a competitor wins a Main, Mini or £55 BH.

    So they are completely separate to each other. I hope this clears up any confusion, however if you are still unsure about anything, let me know.

    Cheers Graham
