A friend of mine and his friend Jack Mulcahy and a Fiat Panda 750 he bought for £25 is going to be doing the above this weekend

Info from Just Giving Page, They raised another £75 in the shop yesterday So he's not far off the total If you are so inclined please they and the N I Hospice would appreciate it if you could stick a few pounds in the kitty stick a couple of quid in the kitty. Nothing for the trip will come out of the fund all running costs are being met by Jim and Jack from their own pockets Just Giving Donation LINK

Updated on Nov 18th 2011 Many thanks to Carphone Warehouse who allowed us to do a fundraiser in their store tonight. Total donated by customers and staff was over £75!

At midnight tonight we will kick off on a mammoth 650 mile trip to cover the 4 corners of Ireland in less than 24 hours!

Spluttering Round Ireland for the Hospice!

This November 19th we are giving a little Fiat Panda, christened Splutter who we bought for £25, on a big adventure, round Ireland in 1 day all in aid of the N.I Hospice!

Jack Mulcahy and Jim Magill, local car enthusiasts are going to drive the 25 year old 750cc Fiat Panda round Ireland on a 3 dimensional adventure following the 4 points of the compass.

Northerly Point - Malin Head

Southerly Point - Mizen Head.

Highest Point - Sally Gap

Lowest Point - Atlantic Ocean

Easterly Point - Burr Point Co Down

Western Point - Dumore Head

All within 24 hours.

So please support them with a donation to the Northern Ireland Hospice.

Jim and obsession with little Fiat's have so far raised over £8000 for the Hospice and have taken him to far flung places like Death Valley, the Sahara, the Arctic and Junction 12 of the M40!!!

Is not a chiropractor they should be saving for?
That's why I reckon it is a sacrifice on their behalf and worthy of at least a fiver :D

Edit Thanks for that Donation, :bow:bow:bow "Bin"

Very Generous :friday

Bin How long do you think it will take them? I will pass your estimate to Jim BECAUSE

There's 3 top prizes for the closest time to the completion time

"650 mile Adventure remember to add the time you think we'll do it in and for the 3 closest guesses the lovely people at DHL are donating £100 & £50 vouchers for Argos and the absolutely fabulous staff at Carphone Warehouse have a Nokia Camera phone for 3rd place."
