The MOTOWN KNIGHTS

Hello Everybody…

Just had to say thanks to the good people of the Arundel Club – City Rd, Sheffield. Why? Well tonight I announced on stage that I had done a very “foolish” thing. What? Well I’ve entered for the Sheffield Swimathon in aid of the Marie Curie Cancer Trust…with just one week to go…!

Yes folks – on the morning of Friday the 17th April at 7.00pm I “Emmanuel” of the Motown Knights will be jumping into Ponds Forge Swimming Pool – and attempting to swim 5000 metres (100 lengths of a 50m pool) for this worthwhile charity… I haven’t left myself very much training time but what the hell – I’m a rock star…I’ll do it – somehow!…Anyway like I said I would like to say a big thank you to the members – and guests of the Arundel Club who raised the grand total of £88.37 at our Motown Knights gig this Saturday Night. I am truly touched by your generosity especially given the – financially challenging times in which we live at present.

The above total includes a very generous tenner from Lloyd B Richards – the Motown Knights guitarist and another tenner from – L. Sweet. Now if I include the £2.00 donated by my very kind and lovely next door neighbour Mary it means that I’m only £9.63 away from my initial target of £100 by Friday the 17th….

I think I’m going to have to increase my initial target folks! After all this really is “all in a good cause”. If you’d like to sponsor me – you can do it right here by clicking this Swimathon link….Every “little” helps…

We look forward to seeing all Arundel Club at another Motown Night soon…

Bless
