Hi all,

Over the years here at HQ, we have seen many of you sadly impacted by cancer, either personally or that of a loved one and we wanted to do a little something to try and raise some money for a cancer charity.

We have chosen the MoonWalk in London on the 14th May.
11 of us from MNHQ will be doing the half moon (13.1 miles officially but actually about 15 miles) around London starting at midnight Shock. If you are doing it too, please come and say hi, we'll be wearing MN t-shirts Grin

If you can spare a few quid, we'd be really very grateful. You can DONATE HERE

We promise to post here as we walk and maybe a few pictures too.

I wonder whether they've opened the box of blister patches yet?

cozietoesie · 15/05/2016 00:43

I hope someone is being liberal with - at least - the chocolate. Grin They'll be needing it by now.

Good luck TeamMN.

Well done!

Bed? Or party?

cozietoesie · 15/05/2016 07:30

Bed and party, I reckon? Grin

Very well done all - and I hope you had a good time. Smile

BalthazarImpresario · 15/05/2016 07:54

Well done everyone, I spotted you just before you went under the bridge after the oxo tower and yelled at you and told another couple that that Yanbu.

Brilliant job xxx

cozietoesie · 15/05/2016 08:08

It was no mean feat. Smile

My feet are wincing companionably in spirit, here, and they haven't even had to do a twentieth of the distance. Grin

I hope you all got to that greasy spoon afterwards. Wink

MaureenMLove · 15/05/2016 08:59

Well done everyone! We didn't see you, but you could have gone passed when we were fending off the drunk transvestite, with a beautiful long dress and 6inch heels on! Grin

Did you go over Tower Bridge when the two nutters were pumping out the tunes? If so, that was us!Grin

cozietoesie · 15/05/2016 09:01

Oh - and a mention to all the Full Moon Walkers. What time are they to finish, roughly?

(Including a special hats off to Moma and her gang. If they're still sober enough to read this, that is! Grin)

BIWI · 15/05/2016 09:02

Brilliant! Glad I didn't do it Grin

cozietoesie · 15/05/2016 09:04

Well I didn't have to fend off anyone last night, 6 inch heels or No.

I feel almost hard done by! Grin

katemiddletonsnudeheels · 15/05/2016 10:41

They are gorgeous pictures Rebecca and it's really nice seeing what you all look like! :)

RebeccaMumsnet · 15/05/2016 10:59

That last, rather elegant picture is me.
We're all a bit sore today!

You all did so well. Smile I think you probably merit a 'feet up' day today.

A good experience and a great cause.
