A massive thank you to everyone who supported and sponsored me today, you are all AMAZING 🤩

I am now home in my pjs, in bed and James is cooking me dinner. And I got a cool shiny medal 🥇

I won’t lie that is the hardest challenge I have ever taken part in, including my lands end to John o groats! Stick me on a bike any day! By the end of it everything from the waist down was in pain, I was close to tears and ended up driving home with no shoes on and only ONE sock (don’t ask 🤦‍♀️)

If anyone else would like to contribute to my fundraising page here is the link - I believe it will be live for a week or so 💚

🎒 Bag packed (after repacking it 3 times)
👕 Clothes ready (fashion meets function… ish)
🎧 Ear pods charged (because 26 miles of my own thoughts? No thanks)
⏰ Alarm set for 04:15am (who does that willingly?!)

Tomorrow, I’m taking on the Jurassic Mighty Hike – 26 miles of breathtaking coastline, sore feet, and probably some regrettable snack choices – all for Macmillan Cancer Support 💚

Originally I was walking with my Dad, but he’s had to step out (don’t worry, he’s cheering from the sofa!), so now I’m doing this one solo – for both of us. 💪

Still time to sponsor my walk of mild madness and epic blisters:

🦖 In just ONE WEEK, I’ll be strapping on my boots, tightening my laces (twice), and attempting the Jurassic Mighty Hike – 26 miles of walking, wobbling, and probably having full conversations with passing seagulls 🐦… all in aid of the amazing Macmillan Cancer Support 💚

Now, here’s where you fabulous lot come in: I need a walking playlist to keep me grooving through the ups, downs, and “why did I sign up for this?” moments. 🎶

Drop your best bangers in the comments – I’m talking current tunes only please (sorry, Eye of the Tiger, you’ve had your time). Think:
🪩 Dua Lipa to power up the hills
🕺 Harry Styles to strut the flat bits
💅 Beyoncé to sass through the blisters
💥 Olivia Rodrigo to scream into the wind
…anything that might make me accidentally start dancing mid-hike, ideally while being judged by confused coastal wildlife.

🎁 And if you’d like to support the cause (or just enjoy imagining me disco-marching through Dorset), there’s still time to donate or share this with friends and family:

🔗 https://click.contact.justgiving.com/?qs=eae441981acfd0738708c1466a751b2b30d181ca4894b0004782ac892f85354dc01f7514083a299570a9eee8f70cc513d8935ca5811ef66f

Let’s build the ultimate Jurassic Jam – because if I’m going to be deliriously tired halfway through, I may as well be doing Beyoncé choreography with a flapjack in hand 💃🧁

🎉 Meet the Real Boss: My 6-Year-Old! 🎉

Running a business with your daughter is equal parts adorable, insightful… and occasionally being told off for not having “pretty enough things” on the table. 😅

Enter: 💰 The Pocket Money Pot! 💰
Brainchild of Alyssia (Chief Cuteness Consultant, aged 6), who reminds me that not everyone at fairs is a grown-up with a debit card — some are little legends with a shiny £2 coin burning a hole in their pocket!

Let’s be honest, we’ve all been there — trailing round a summer fair, spotting a sparkly something and pleading, “Muuuum, do I have enough money for thiiis?”
(Shoutout to my parents for surviving my endless asking — you’re the real MVPs.)

So this Sunday 29th June, at Stratton Summer Fayre, Dorset Coastal Gems will be proudly displaying our Pocket Money Pot:
✨ £2 each or 3 for £5! ✨

Expect:
🧵 Hand-strung bead bracelets
🌊 Wax cord necklaces with Tibetan silver & resin charms
💎 AND Alyssia’s very own hand wire-wrapped sea glass pendants! (Yes, she really made them — and yes, they’re adorable.)

Now don’t let the name fool you — this pot isn’t just for the kids. I rock a Heshi bead bracelet on the daily and Alyssia’s sea glass pieces? Absolute gems.

Swing by, say hi, and grab a sparkly treasure — adult or child, everyone deserves a little £2 joy! 💕

🦖 The Jurassic Mighty Hike is looming… and no, sadly, there won’t be any actual dinosaurs to chase me along the 26-mile route (although I might pretend there are around mile 20 just for motivation).

In just a couple of weeks, I’ll be swapping my trusty mountain bike for actual walking, on actual feet, for an epic hike along the stunning Jurassic Coast. That’s right—two feet, 26 miles, and one slightly confused cyclist trying to remember how to walk long distances!

Check out the route here (bonus points if you spot where I’ll start regretting life choices):
📍 https://www.relive.com/view/vxOQLGPVx2v

If you can spare a few quid to support this madness—and a brilliant cause—it would mean the world! Every donation gives my legs a bit more motivation (and my blisters a bit more purpose).
🦶💪👣
🎉 Donate here: https://www.justgiving.com/page/christineandjeremy?utm_medium=FR&utm_source=CL&utm_campaign=019

Please share with your lovely friends and family too—because nothing says “fun” like cheering on someone who’s walking 26 miles voluntarily. 😅
