No pain, no gain

Who would want to give up chocolate? Not many people, including me. Obviously I had a mad 2 minutes in which it seemed like a good idea, but that was weeks ago and I've come to my senses now. All too late though, I had already committed myself to the fabulous 'Stuff Your Rucksack' scheme for a trip to Nepal in April. This will see me forced to leave the kitchen sink behind and instead fill my rucksack with far more useful things to support the work of Nepal Schools Aid (UK) with disadvantaged children in Kathmandu.

Instead of financial support I am seeking donations of coloured paper/crayons/finger paints/maps/plastic letters to take to Nepal. If you would like to make a financial donation though, it would of course be very welcome. Please click on the link to My Charity page.
*Update - educational posters are also urgently needed as a priority!*

Day 13: A tiny bit fed up now

The novelty of the no-chocolate regime is wearing off now. I need some worthy cause to take my mind off my cravings.
Enter the World Snail Racing contest as held annually in Norfolk. It needs every vote possible to triumph in the Where Else But England favourite English events contest.
World Snail Racing needs you - go to http://whereelsebutengland.co.uk/ scroll down a bit and vote for Snail Racing. Be quick about it though, voting closes tomorrow.
Thank you!
