When will my personal blog (much more interesting than this work thing) hit a million views? Try it out and win £100.

Thank you to everyone who has donated to Pego’s Millions via my other blog at markgorman.wordpress.com.

After only a week you have donated a whopping £766 to St Columba’s Hospice. (My target is £1,000 but originally it was £500 so let’s see if we can power our way through that milestone this week).

The good news is that my site stats only grew by 5% last week so there’s still probably (at this rate) about 37 days until my millionth hit which remains at or around 21st December.

So, if you want another guess (and remember it’s all going to a good cause) plus the chance to win £100 and a bottle of Tesco’s finest bubbly you’re more than welcome to have another go.

Just visit this site and it’ll work it all out for you.  (Actually it won’t, you’ll need your wits about you but if you become unstuck just send me an email with your guess or stick it into the comments box on this post.)

It’s £10 a pop and all you have to do is estimate at what time and on what date markgorman.wordpress.com will hit its milllionth hit.

Imagine the excitement as the deadline approaches.

It’ll be just like that scene in The Scocial Network, for those of you that have seen it.

This is why Mother is one of the greatest ad agencies in the world.

Must watch.  Genius.

Music quiz mayhem

Last years NABS winning team; Multiply

This is when my willingness to help folk out comes back to bite me.  I have not one but two music quizzes planned in September, both for good causes and both with overlapping audiences so the questions will all have to be different.

Please support one or both of them.

On 3 September I will be doing one for Altzheimers Scotland to raise funds for Pete Mill who is doing a sponsored hike to Machu Pichu to raise money for them.  It’s £40 a team and is being kindly hosted by Hudson recruitment in The West End of Edinburgh.

More details here…

On 24 September it is the third annual NABS music Quiz at Newhaven Communications.  Previous nights have been a riot and very close fought affairs with Newhaven winning in 2007 and Multiply lifting the trophy in 2008.  It’s £100 for a team of four.

Let me know if you’d like to enter either of them as a team OR as an individual (we can match you up into a team).
