I had a drunken bet with someone I could easily get to 101 followers by midnight tonight. I'm only on 36 and I'm not very exciting. i wouldn't follow me. I'm stuffed aren't I?

Unless 65 of you help me out!

There isn't really anything to win, it just stops me looking stupid and being ribbed for years.

Go follow as many companies/people etc as you can, some will follow you back, quicker than trying to do it all through STW

For fear of being prosecuted over something that someone finds offensive I dare not. Freedom of speech seems to not apply on certain formats

OK, had a think about it and if i get to 101 followers by midnight I will give £1 for each follower to the Mountain Rescue charity.

So I started at 36, if I can get to 101 before midnight that will be 65 to charity!

Just asked @laurenlaverne, @jensonbutton & @mrjakehumphrey to ask for retweets for you - it's a good cause to spend your money...

Definitely worth tweeting about your charitable donation.

You are buying them, but it's for charity....so that makes everything ok.

I have found counting is not always twitters strong point, which could be a problem for your bet admittedly.
