TinaGlenn (your charity Czar) has agreed to the following competition
I am going round the coast of UK and last year reached Sutton Bridge near the Wash. My coastal mileage so far is 5380. The start and end point is of the total trip is the Redbridge causeway exit slip road in Southampton at 50° 55' 12" N and 1° 28' 42" W.
Make a donation/pledge to the MHF charity then put your guess in this thread or PM me.
What do you win
A Bottle of fine Malt Whisky from my collection (see also below)
Some clarifications
If you make an anonymous donation you can still take part; give your guess to Tina who will pm me.
If you don't want a malt whisky I will give an alternative bottle of spirits.
Those that have already donated can take part (I make that gdleeds, Wakk44, SueandRodger and Steamdrivenandy).
The time limit for this competition is when I finish and publish the mileage which probably will be sometime in May but could be as early as April.
If you haven't a clue about the mileage let me say that I have recently seen estimates of the length of coastline from 5500 to 8000 miles but the mileage that counts is the one on my motorhome and that depends on how close it can get to the edge. (There may be clues in the blogs or in my blog related posts/threads)
Any dispute about this competition will be arbitrated by TinaGlenn
please keep this thread in view by posting, even if its only a bump
I couldn't find a tin to rattle so I had to shake those instead
COMPETITION ENDS 18th APRIL

Reason for change by sallytrafic: edited for Spelling Sorry SDA, and help for Donation button and to add shake
What an excellent idea to raise money for a worthwhile charity.Although I don't drink spirits of any kind the equivalent in guinness will be fine
As you are on the home run and have completed 5380 miles so far I reckon you will do about another 1000 miles to the finish in Southampton,bearing in mind there are some wriggly bits around Norfolk,Suffolk,Essex and Kent.
So 6400 miles in my intelligent guess.

If I see you've donated to the charity from the info on the MHF front page I'll be sending you a PM to advise you of the competition.
