Hello everybody! On 13th June, I’m taking on my toughest challenge yet. A 24-hour sponsored silence! I'm supporting the people of Nepal where the pandemic is now causing many problems. This will not be easy... so please all sponsor me!

Sad to hear the news that Ian Holm, the shakespearean actor and star of Lord of the Rings, Alien and Chariots of Fire, has passed away aged 88. Our thoughts go out to his family and friends
Please keep safe everybody. Remember the main thing that stops the spread of covid-19 is simply washing your hands regularly. We will get through this so keep your spirits high and together WE SHALL BEAT IT!

GORDON’S ALIVE!!! AND SO AM I! Ahhh, that felt good! Yesterday's 24 hour silence was rather nice actually, but now I’m back AND I CAN TALK AS MUCH AS I LIKE! Thank you to all who supported me to help the people of Nepal. Still plenty of time to donate:
Only two more days to use my voice before my day of silence begins! I am doing this because we must urgently support the noble people of Nepal through the worsening Covid-19 crisis. Cases are rising and many people are dying. Please donate if you can:
