A big scary Sunday

Heya Guys!

So, on Sunday 2nd I did the abseil down the Forth Rail Bridge along with my friend Stacey King. We were lucky enough to have a bunch of awesome people come to support us in the form of Stacey's dad, Michael, Kirsty, Lynn and Beans and the kids! :D

We also had our own paparazzi - true story!! He followed us and the other 2 MND Scotland abseilers around all day taking hundreds of action shots (and posed ones too). So big thanks to him also (though not for taking all the pics while we were waiting in the registration room, there was no need!)

Although it was a bit of a dull day we were lucky enough that the rain stayed away while we were abseiling. I dont know what to say about the actual abseil - i was terrified...we had a great (albeit nervous) laugh... the bridge was high... we had to stand on a chair to climb over the barrier (true story, and scariest moment EVER!)... the views were great.... i thought i was going to die... i didnt die. There! That about sums it up. Here's some pictorial evidence...




And then it was all over.... Here's us with the other two abseilers for MND Scotland! All still alive and well :D
 Finally, I'd just like to say thanks to everyone who sponsored me, my lovely friends who came along for moral support (then stayed to have a lovely meal afterwards!) but most of all to Stacey for being up for such a scary challenge, raising lots of money, and allowing us to put it towards our Machu Picchu funds!! The girl is a star! :D

Please remember that you can donate to us at any time, http://www.justgiving.com/Clair-and-Shona-McAdam
or do fundraising events for us if you fancy a challenge. :)

Muchos love!
