Jamie and Stuart hit the mountains again in the UK. Jamie said “Met a few people on the top of great gable whom were going to visit Joe's website in an intention to donate, hope they do I also hope this helps further. The full album of photos on my facebook”

 

Joe’s banner then went to Crufts with Francis Carter and her Rescue dog Douglas who was joined by his Friend Kodak. Fran and Douglas attended last years paddle and will be at this year’s event also.

 

The banner then went to OZ Thanks to Jack and Anna for taking the banner to Oz. Anna said “This photo was taken in Diamond Head in New South Wales and it was taken on a really long dirt track which was a mission to stop on without skidding. We then walked across the prickly grass about 4 times to get the perfect shot but it didn’t come out to great after all the effort but never mind. We also got one with jack and the Opera house which is a nice one and another which we took at Steve Irwin’s Zoo”.

 

The banner was still whizzing around OZ with Joe and Debbie. Debbie said “I have a few pics for you I hope they are what your looking for There is one in Byron Bay one in lamington national park its a huge rainforest in QLD and a couple of pics with the big pineapple and the big banana”.

 

Thanks to every one who has helped Joe’s banner travel over 238,000km which is nearly six times around The circumference of the earth at the equator 

  

 

Thanks Greg and Kat for taking the banner to South Africa after the photo the young girl ran up and down the beach with it...

Jamie Larder said "Had a lovely time in Egypt, didn't
go to the Pyramids because it was a 13 hr drive away but the picture taken
was on a boat trip to Ras Mohammad near Sharm el Sheikh which is a
protected national park consisting of one of the best coral reef dive sites in
world".

Jamie and Stuart also took Joes banner to several mountain peak locations around the UK including Snowdon

 

   

Joe’s banner has been all over the world and surfer Tom Butler had taken the prize banner on tour to Sri Lanka

Arugam Bay was firing for the final day of the UKPSA Sri Lankan Surf Championships. An increase in swell overnight provided 4-6ft barrelling right hander’s for the remaining competitors. In heat one of the quarter finals Micah Lester took full advantage of the conditions scoring the highest wave of the event (9.4) earning him the return ticket from London to Sri Lanka donated by Sri Lankan Airlines. 

The remaining quarter final heats saw outstanding performances from Richie Sills (South Africa) and Newquay surfers Alan Stokes, Mitch Corbett and Tom Butler.

In the first semi final Richie Sills and Sam Lamroy (Newcastle) surfed consistently to edge out Lee Bartlet and Micah Lester.
Four Newquay surfers made up semi final two. Alan Stokes dominated from the beginning with two high scoring rides. Mark Harris scraped ahead of Mitch Corbett to take second with Tom Butler fourth. 

Matt Way Joe’s Dad said “I love Sri Lanka I had two trips years ago surfing with a welsh crew at Ram’s place so it was very fitting for my late son’s banner to do a trip, we are really grateful to Tom who has helped us along with the rest of his family with the amazing fund raising for the Precious Lives Appeal raising over £51K in just over 12 months in Joe’s memory” 

Alan Stokes who has also helped the Way family from Newquay along with his sister Lottie Stokes with fund raising joined Tom for a photo with the banner.
