How to spend a lazy Sunday
Posted by Rugby Nick | Filed under Charity updates
What do you think a crew of drunken pirates need first thing in the morning. If you guessed bacon, egg and hash browns you were almost there. If you guessed beer with those food items we are starting to get a bit more accurate.
Which is why the offer from the previous nights pub [...]
And it’s Go, Go… Stop

The 2nd day of the walk is now complete and all is well. Which is better than they were this morning. All the boats got away fine, making good time. All but one that is. Whilst the Wasps walkers and boat got away fine we, the Newcastle boat I am skippering, [...]
Let’s Get This Party Started
Posted by Rugby Nick | Filed under Charity updates
Walk 4 Matt is a walk, not a race – which means starting with a boat load of beer is pretty much acceptable. And since pretty much acceptable is the best that I ever hope for that is exactly what I did, a boat load of beer!
After a nightmare journey up to Rugby to [...]
The press gangs are a-coming.
Posted by Rugby Nick | Filed under Charity updates
Lock the windows, bolt the doors and do not venture out after dark, for the menace is back – the menace of the press gang. Those of you old enough may recall the exploits of Ca’pain Dan and his crew of evil mutant wasps, and the horror that they visited upon an unsuspecting English [...]
Wasps vs Cardiff – a charity money maker
Posted by Rugby Nick | Filed under Charity updates, Thank you's
The time is getting closer, more money is being raised (personal total between me and the other half is just under £700 with another £100 promised) and more effort is going in.

Well I did it…

What is the worst thing that you can think of for a Welsh rugby fan?
How about having to wear an England shirt?
How about having to wear an England shirt on International day?

No, the answer, as I discovered, is having to wear an [...]
It all happens tomorrow – I look like a pillock
Posted by Rugby Nick | Filed under Charity updates
Thanks to £350 being raised so far tomorrow I will be looking like a pillock. That’s right I will be wearing the worst ever item of clothing, the most awful thing ever to leave a factory.
An English Rugby Shirt.
Yes it will hurt. There is every chance it will leave my skin blackened and [...]
I am doing the unthinkable
Posted by Rugby Nick | Filed under Charity updates
EDIT: £150 already reached so new ways of making me look idiotic have been added – see the bottom of the post
Now we all know I am a proud Welsh man, and we all know that as a proud Welsh man I have been brought up to dislike the English rugby team with a [...]
Here we go again!
Posted by Rugby Nick | Filed under Charity updates
It’s time to get the Walk 4 Matt show back on the road!
In a few months time we will be doing it all again, walking, drinking, abusing professional players and generally making idiots of ourselves… which means we need to be blogging about it again so you know just how idiotic we are being! [...]
