Right lads and lassies - it's officially on. Peter and I are climbing Kilimanjaro in September.

We're paying our own way but while we're doing it we're raising money for Suicide Awareness and Prevention and remembering Peter's lovely nephew who we both used to coach before he tragically took his own life.

Please donate and share wherever you can. The object here is awareness and spreading love and support. Thanks folks for anything you can do.
Clive - I'd love a sticky on this, mate, if you can.

Thanks Tactical. I've been on to the charity and they've been on to the page provider. Promising to have it fixed by tomorrow. Hope they do.

Thanks to a few of you for pointing out an issue with GoFundMe. For some reason it crashed and then later refunded a load of donors their money!

https://www.gofundme.com/mad-men-going-up-a-mountain

The good news is that it's working again now.

The bad news is that all of you fine people who've donated may have been refunded. If you still feel like donating (and there's no pressure, naturally) you'll have to visit the link above again.

Apologies for the mess. It's not ideal. But thanks again.

Done!

Hard work training for it and doing the actual climb but worth it for the view from the top and the celebratory beers afterwards. Had a great gang to climb with and the local guides were excellent, friendly and great fun.

Thanks to all of you on here for the great tips and for the incredible donations to the charity. They can’t figure out how so money was donated from all around the world. I had to explain that Rangers are different! We paid our own way and the charity have no expenses so we think we might hit €10,000 all told and every cent of that will go to saving lives. We’ll done to you all!

On the way back now and catching up on Rangers while waiting for a connecting flight in Addis Ababa. All good in W12?

Well done Brian.These charity treks are something special aren’t they?It’s 4 years since I walked part of the Grand Canyon for Marie Curie and I’m itching to do another.
I’m torn between Canadian Rockies,Machu pichu or Everest base camp.
Have a safe journey home.

Well done Brian! I know I chipped in some months ago but can't remember what happened, having read that the site crashed and some pledges may have been lost...I'll try and check it out. Edit: Now sorted!

Thanks, Stowmarket.

that was my first charity trek and I really enjoyed it. Not sure I'll be doing another for a while but cracking experience - the training, the camaraderie, the locals in Tanzania...all really great.

Thanks again to all of you. Stars.

Thanks, Noel. Very generous.

Thanks also to Konk. I've already praised the Rangers fans so hats off to Fulham as well!
