I was up early today, out the house not long after and I was quite excited about the day ahead. It was all for the 'to Derby and back for Jimmy and Jack' event which I had agreed to help out by marshalling. It's been a great experience for me, I have photos and also help from others involved who are going to send me/allow me to use theirs.

Also, I've been inspired to write a little more (don't quote me but I really have tried).

The event was fun, I wished I could have taken part but I sound like a broken record with that, though I really mean it. It was fantastic to see ex players, staff and fans all joint in raising funds for two our legends.

@tonyhateley I sat admiring the view I had, I was one of the furthest away and stationed near a place called nooning lane. My photo doesn't give it justice but it was a very nice area!

Not really, I was in a breezy location and I didn't really feel all that warm (not that I was cold). LOL

I've written about yesterday and shared photos with help from our friends.

Article - Photos

I hate asking, although please consider to share. Links, Shares, Comments and so on are very helpful towards our growth. I know I say this often at times but things like this generate a lot of interest and it could be that extra push we need. I will be blogging about my experience, hopefully in an interesting way. As it will be a little more personal than what I tried to distract from in my article.
