Band Corporal Shuggie McGleish is doing a 1200 miles John O'Groats to Land's End partially supported Sponsored walk in aid of the Dame Hannah Rogers School and the Royal Navy Benevolent Trust on Friday 4th August and finishing on 1st of October 2006 at Land's End.

He will be covering 25 miles per day for six days a week with one rest day. He will be carrying all of his own kit on his back (this weighs 25Kg or 4 stone in old money) throughout the duration of this walk. He will be sleeping wherever he ends up and not lording it in some hotel... wherever he ends the 25 miles will be home for the night!

He aims to raise in excess of £5500 and will continue to collect right up until late December.

Shuggie is hoping to raise enough to buy a little girl a voice box, good luck to him! Also, the rest of the money if there is any left over will go to the RNBT, which ex-serving can still go to in times of need.

Come on peeps, dig deep!

I dunno, it maybe pretty hard seeing as he is walking. I don't know him myself but a friend of mine does, thought I could help with racking up sponsors for him.

Ye gods Jenny.

I ‘know’ Shuggie from his leading of minor RM Band ensembles, one of which entertained my mess in the most fantastic fashion, a Burns Night! When I saw his name on the front page of Rum Ration I thought he’d gone to the big Stand Easy. Less alarming headlines please!

Apart from that, the cheque is in the post. Top bloke!
