Richard Hammond Signed Tshirt- All proceeds to Yorkshire Air Ambulance

ttyrants911 · October 26th, 2007, 11:39 AM

Hi guys-

It's been a while since I was last online. I moved house, then Supanet decided to completely cock up my Broadband connection, leaving me internet-less for about 5 weeks! I felt like I had lost a limb.

But, since last year I have been on a mission. Wondering how to raise funds for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance (That took Richard to hospital) I hit upon an idea.

Last December, when Richard appeared on "Friday night with Jonathan Ross", the 4 poofs (and a piano) had t-shirts with Richard's face on them (for non viewers, they choose one of the guests each week to feature on their t-shirts). Well anyhoo, i emailed the 4 poofs and asked if they had any of the t-shirts left that they could donate. I narrowly missed it as the series had ended and they had all left for a well earned Crimbo break. However, one of the guys asked me to keep in touch.
So I did.
And a couple of weeks back I was the proud holder of the last remaining t-shirt, seen by millions AND signed by Richard when he returned to the show on Friday September 21st to promote his autobiography.

So now it is on eBay. I am giving ALL the proceeds to the YAA and hope to make a shedload to give to them in time for Christmas.
It comes with the letter written by Ian (one of the 4 poofs) who did all the hard work keeping hold of the shirt til Richard returned and posting it to me) which proves its authentication.

Please have a look, and if anyone feels like bidding or asking rich relatives, sugar daddies, wealthy brewery heiresses etc, all donations would be gratefully accepted.

I am also auctioning off a set of Top Gear fridge magnets, and have others for sale should anyone be short of a set.
