TIGHTCHOKE Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 Gentlemen As you may be aware, Martin, (Lord Geordie) suffered a stroke a while back and is recovering in Hospital. Hawkeye is our point of contact and is updating us. I am keen to raise a few quid for him and his son Chris. There have been suggestions of what to buy and we are currently considering a tablet or Ipad. I am accepting and logging donations, currently heading towards £500. If you would like to add to the funding, please PM and I will reply with details. Some have asked to remain anonymous and I am happy to comply. Many thanks to those that have already donated.

TIGHTCHOKE Posted May 25, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) Good morning Gentlemen and our one Lady donor. I shall check the account and update after another cup of coffee! Not gone up much, now sitting at £835 THANK YOU EVERYONE - SO FAR! Edited May 25, 2020 by TIGHTCHOKE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted May 25, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 WOW! What a wonderful Forum this is, I have people sending me money for Martin, I have a promise of more to come and now I have someone sending an Iphone to Martins other half. You really are some wonderful people THANK YOU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted May 25, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) To say I am touched is rather lacking in its simplicity, the total raised so far is £1070 If you haven't donated to this wonderful cause could I politely ask you to reconsider. As a Forum we used to be pretty good on the charity front, that all stopped when the annual North v South Shoots stopped. Thank you to all of you who have sent money to make Martin's life a little easier. Edited May 25, 2020 by TIGHTCHOKE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mel b3 Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 any news on what the donations will be buying yet dave ?. it might be more useful to lg to just put the donations into his bank to pay his mortgage for a couple of months . we all know how hard he worked to get his house , and how proud he was of his achievement .

Open to any and all suggestions, will keep accepting money for a while and I await an update from Mike (Hawkeye) You can all be very proud of yourselves so far and when it is time to make a decision, I assure you it will be conducted sensibly. If we go down the route of a piece of equipment to allow him to be in contact with the rest of the world I have promises of access to discounts. Onward and upward!
