You never know what wacky stunt I'm going to get up to next. Well fans, my latest carry on will not disappoint you. I was talking to some very close friends of mine recently, who are all movers and shakers, and they all said, 'Marc, why not do some fundraising in your own outrageous style, which is totally nuts and wacky and really hilarious?' Well of course I hate letting my fans down, especially when they are really close friends. As you can see I had to get in a bath full of Scotch eggs, as usual Little Marc had to get in on the act. Of course it's not important how much money we raised, but it was over £28. Once the cost of the Scotch eggs was deducted, that left nearly £2.50 for good causes. Just in case over 60 girls decided to try and get a peek at me getting in the bath, I decided to keep my clothes on, plus I was in a rush to get to my part-time telesales job, selling bingo memberships.

This was not my first work for charities, I've always been in huge demand to help out at some fete or other. As well as raising money, it's a good way for me polish up my showbiz act. People adore my DJ'ing, gags, karaoke, impressions etc. Here I am receiving a cheque for a local charity from child genius James Harries - what a great meeting of minds that was. James was particularly impressed with me on the karaoke, as I'd just done a fantastic version of 'Just Say No' by The Cast of Grange Hill. Some record company big wigs probably wanted to release it as a number 1 blockbuster charity record, but I once read in a pop music magazine that it can take 4 full days of filming to shoot the video, and with my other commitments, I could probably only spare 3 days.
