Hello everyone. We set off on our road trip at 5am Monday morning and arrived at Southend (our final stadium) at 3pm on Friday afternoon! 

It was a long old journey -102 hours, 2,536 miles and 95 stadiums. We did every club in the Premier League, Championship, League One and League Two. Plus Highbury, Wembley and the Millennium Stadium.

We slept in the car for four nights and that was fun! All three of us cramped in my Ford Focus hardly getting any sleep but it was worth it in the end.

Some of the most impressive stadiums were Brighton, Rotherham, Chesterfield, Morecambe, Doncaster, Man Utd, Man City, but my favourite was Bolton Wanderers.  I know it sounds strange but it seems so different to all the others. The shape of it all, the way the floodlights start on the floor outside and seem to lean over the stadium I thought it was amazing.

Some of the worst stadiums include Yeovil, Oldham, Oxford (because it only has three stands, lol! And Liverpool! The stadium looks OK, but the surrounding area, well, I'd rather drive through Baghdad! It is shocking! All the surrounding roads are completely boarded up, rubbish on the green opposite, it's like a war zone!

So it took four and a half days but we did it! We have now reached our revised target of £2000 and are going to raise that now. 

All money goes to FSID THE COT DEATH CHARITY so please donate @
