FIVE women from Bicester have decorated their bras with lights and glitter as they prepare to take part in this weekend's MoonWalk for charity in London.

Jeanette Watts, 48, and daughter Rachel, 18, Trisha Kidd, 44, Gina Coles, 35, and Linda Hurley, 42, will walk just over 26 miles in their bras to raise money and awareness for breast cancer causes.

The Bicester Babes will begin their marathon at 11pm tonight and hope to finish by 6am tomorrow.

Mrs Watts decided to do the Playtex MoonWalk three years ago, after taking part in the Race For Life for seven years.

She said: "I wanted to do something different and mentioned it to Linda, Trisha and Rachel. We all decided to do it and give each other support.

"We all support breast cancer charities for various personal reasons, and this year Gina has joined us because we kept saying what great fun it was to take part."

Last year the group raised about £1,000 and completed the walk, which starts and finishes at Hyde Park, in just over seven hours.
