Where we need to beg for transport replacement

He was an old blue B-reg Beford TK, he was good and strong and best of all he came as a donation, fully road legal, and he's been a star but, as with all aging things ( me included) there's only so much mileage left and no more and then you come to the end. 

We've come to the end, there is no more.

So here's the bottom line - though it's not as there's more to come - this charity is cash strapped, our meagre reserves we need to hold tight to for Winter feeding.

Our Lorry/Box needs replacing asap to allow us to continue to use the transport for lots of things all the time as we always have. 

As well as transporting horses and ponies to and from the sanctuary, near Bromyard, it is constantly in use for fetching hay and straw and other goods that are donated to the charity to help raise funds. Part of the process of rehabilitation of sanctuary horse, prior to them leaving the farm is teaching them to load onto a lorry without fear, a good step towards them being able to go on to new homes.
Getting poor needing horses in and sick ones to the vet, bringing in poorly foals, in-foal mares, those in trouble.

We need funds to replace the old lorry or perhaps another very kind donation of a road worthy lorry/trailer capable of carrying 2 or more ponies and horses up to height of 16hh. If you want to donate  LORRY APPEAL marking your donation just that -LORRY APPEAL - as we need to set aside about £2000 for this.

YOUR MIGHT JUST SPOT ME I'LL BE WEARING ONE OF THESE JOBS! Super bright turquoise text on a navy background. I'm ever so willing to accept monetary donations as I run so don't be embarrassed about offering!

I'm doing ok apart from a bit of a patella prob but hoping the new support band will help. I'm getting about 5km a day with longer runs, cycling and strengtheing walks with the super fit dogs added on for good measure. It's getting ever closer to October when we find out if we've got a ballot place in the London virgin Marathon 2011 meanwhile I'm entered for first half marathon up near Keighley on Sept 12th. I'm hoping the knee won't let me down but if it does then I'm on my bike. If you fancy sponsoring me towards all our funding needs follow the same link but mark it EMWrunner.
Weather is grim. Nothing to look forward to either  forecasters are all doom and gloom with no change from showery and longer spells of rain ahead right into autumn...oh for some hot sunshine and cheer.
