Hi

On Saturday we had a crackin’ night with the members of Ashby Mill Rd Club in Scunthorpe.  It’s no exaggeration to say that there was only standing room left – and not much of that. People were literally dancing in the aisles to the Motown Knights “riddim”!

If that wasn’t good enough – the members of the club also contributed very generously to my Swimathon appeal – in aid of Marie Curie Cancer Care.

In fact a grand total of £111.36 was donated on the night. This total incudes a very generous £15 from Chris, Cath & “the lads”. The Motown Knights would like to say a huge THANKS to each and every member who contributed on Saturday night…This amount was raised after informing everyone of my succesful Swimathon challenge!…

Yes folks – you’ll be pleased to hear that I did indeed complete 5000 metres at Ponds Forge Swimming Pool on the morning of Friday 17th April 2009. That is 200 x 25 metre breadths or 100 x 50 metre lengths. The medal now hangs on my wall…

I completed the swim in a time of 2hrs and 30 mins exactly.  I’m quite pleased with the time considering I only had one weeks training….Next year I might have a go at the English Channel. What do ya think? -I can see the headlines now “Motown Knights Swim Channel!”. I suppose that should be “Motown Knight” – there’s absolutely no chance of “Lloydy” doing it – LOL…

Unfortunately the evening was slightly marred at the end by the completely unwarranted, disgusting behaviour of three Ashby Mill Rd Club “comittee members” – they know who they are…who should hang their heads in shame. I will not dignify their actions by discussing them here. I think it sufficent to say that I believe their actions were addressed correctly by the Police…

If you would like to donate a little more to my SWIMATHON appeal there’s still a little time left – just click the link.

In closing the Motown Knights would also just like to say a big “thanks” to Steve Hare for booking us and organising the evening and “Stuart” for spinning the vinyl in true DJ styleee! Booyaka!

Best Wishes

Emmanuel aka David James – Motown Knights
