What a lovely surprise to wake up to this morning, it means even more when it comes from a complete stranger. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2155/...a8d50d8e_o.gif
Thank you so very very much.

Just a passing comment for any of you guys who are doing sponsored/charity rides, it can pay off writing to either big companies or a well known individual.
Where I live there is a very expensive area, Sandbanks, it also has the largerst natural harbour in Europe. Anyway, there is a guy who is a millionaire, into property development, one of these local lads made good. (No, I do not live that close to this area unfortunately). :o
He frequently annoys a lot of people because he buys up really nice 4 -5 bedroomed houses in an expensive area, knocks them down then builds a rather amazing property in it's place.

Anyway, I was more than grateful when he sponsored me for $200.
So, always try the old fashioned thing of writing a letter.
