  Jim Gleeson of Cullins Yard is shortly setting off on his third Marathon des Sables, a 245-km canter across the Sahara desert.

  As well as supporting him via the website, he also has a collection box on the bar.

  Well, at least life is not quite all, "Dune and gloom."
  
  I wish him well. [A whole string of wells in fact.]

  Blimey - good luck to him and thank you for making us aware. Worth sauntering down for a pint just to pop a few quid in the box.
