Probably my toughest ever challenge!

On Thursday night this week I will take on probably one of the toughest challenges I have ever faced when I take to the floor of the Hilton's Ball Room to do a stand up comedy turn in front of around 500 people.  The events is the annual "Hottest Night of the Year" organised by Charan Gill but, this year is has been renamed the "Funniest Night of the Year".

But I'm not alone, I suspect it's an equally daunting challenge for the three other contestants; Gaynor Turner, Lorraine Herbison and Jack Konopate.  I salute each of them for agreeing to do something so far outside their comfort zone that it beggars belief.  We will each do approximately five minutes stand up in front of a live audience and a panel of expert judges.

The wonderfully funny Janey Godley has been mentoring each of us for the event however, there's only so much one woman can do!  I know Gaynor, Lorraine and Jack will join me in thanking her for giving up her valuable time to make this event happen.

However, the toughness of the challenge is insignificant in comparison to that of the people affected by the cause we are rising funds for, The Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice. The patients and staff at the hospice face far greater challenges every day in life.  That's why my three fellow contestants and myself are "happy" to take on this challenge.

We have each been allocated a text voting code which is in operation now.  Each text costs £1 and the proceeds go to the Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice.

I would personally like you all to vote for me however, in the interests of fairness, and more importantly to raise as much as we can for the hospice, I have listed each contestants voting codes below.  If you don't know who to vote for, you can simply vote for each of us, there is no limit to the number of votes you place!

I am asking you to do two things to support us:


• Vote for at least one of us, at least once.
• Share this blog with all of your contacts either by using the Twitter or Facebook link below.  

Better still, share it on both - the more you share it, the more we will all raise for the hospice, that will make it worth the sleepless nights Gaynor, Lorraine, Jack and myself are having this week.

Here are the voting details:

Text Hot Gordon to 82055
