I AM IRONMAN!!!! (Well, hopefully)
Hello all
As some of you already know I am undertaking the Ironman in Bolton in July. I have decided to try and raise money for a friend of mine and her son, James. The story is on my pages listed below.
If you can, could you see fit to at least check out my pages and, if you can, spare a copper or two?

Many thanks,
Martin

Fourth time lucky eh? This 'thread' has been keeping me entertained for the last hour or two.
Great cause and magnificent effort mate! For once, I will get there to watch Ironman this year.

I've had a chuckle or two from it too.

And thus is my dilemma. Traditionally people have a 'dot M' tattoo on completing the race. I'm thinking of incorporating the Iron Man marvel character with a Sabbath theme whilst retaining the 'dot M' basis. Seeking inspiration.......

Every faith in you, Buddy, but a mate of mine pulled a hamstring in the run. As you can imagine, he was saddened somewhat.Gary the Enfield wrote:Thanks for the vote of confidence!

You'll do it easily. You're not a panic fanny. But I've no idea about what tat you should have. (actually, that's a lie - I fxckin hate tattoos - except on Maoris and Sumo wrestlers. So don't have one.)Gary the Enfield wrote:Thanks for the vote of confidence!
