“We’d also like to say a massive thank you to everyone for voting for us, so we’ll coming back to Lincolnshire with two trophies.
“The future’s bright; the future is Light Blue.”
The team was:
Captain: Steve Henman;
Driver: Marcus ‘Canonball’ Canon;
Runners: Mike Coleman and Neil Suiter
Collectors: Rob Wells and Jay Roffey;
Chief Cheerleader:Pete Brieslin.
Berkshire Freemasons’ PR officer Liam Kenny said: “The Ashlars managed to shake buckets and obtain a very decent £72.45 for a Berkshire charity ‘Swings & Smiles’.
“Thank you on behalf of Berkshire Freemasons for all their sterling work and inviting me along to bother and ask them daft questions along the way. They’re a truly lovely bunch of fellas, and they did Lincolnshire Freemasons proud today.”
