You'd have been forgiven for doing a double take, but there really was a giant green frog driving around Wokingham this weekend.

Well-known charity campaigner - and Bracknell News columnist - Colin Antink, was virtually unrecognisable as he toured the town, decked head to toe as the Crazy Frog, on his mobility scooter.

Despite Thursday night's heavy downpour wreaking havoc across the town and beyond, Wokingham man Colin was undetered, vowing to do as many laps of the town and villages further afield, to fundraise for the Thames Hospice.

His mobility scooter clad with bunting and balloons, Colin embarked on a mammoth three-day trip round the town, all while playing the notoriously annoying Crazy Frog song.

He aimed to stay out each day for as long as his battery lasted, roughly around eight to nine hours, depending on the distance and speed at which he travelled.

Speaking to the News outside Wokingham Town Hall on Friday morning, Colin said: "I am dressed up as the Crazy Frog going around playing the theme trying to get everybody's attention to fundraise for the Thames Hospice.

"I have absolutely no idea why or how I settled on the idea of being a frog and then to actually get out here dressed as one but never mind!

"I just wish it was sunny but oh well!

"To be honest even as little as a pound makes a difference though I am trying to raise about £1,000."

All funds raised will go to the hospice, which cares for adults with life-limiting illnesses across East Berkshire and South Buckinghamshire.

Colin, who suffers from Stickler Syndrome, a rare hereditary condition impacting eyesight, hearing and joints, had initially planned to travel from Wokingham to Weymouth on his scooter, but had to abandon the plans because of the scale of the project.
