    Looks like fun! and for a great cause.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

    Red face more typing, more letters, more stamps, more dosh!

    It's all very bizarre, wonder if anybody else has felt like I have?

    About 4 weeks ago, I really felt down in the dumps, then I realised why, my enthusiasm and energy had suddenly subsided.

    I had nothing to aim for, I had reached £3000.

    Then I got to thinking, OK, I have done the ride but I have until October to get more money in.

    So, time to keep quiet and not bore my partner and my son silly. Time to just keep persevering with the fundraising.

    Voila............it worked, I have a purpose again, doesn't matter a toss to anybody else but me. On Sunday I should reach £4000 that's just over $7000...........hehehe but I am still pestering people, I just wonder..........I just wonder if it can creep up towards £5000 or $9000?

    Of course, then I go the other extreme and forget about everything else, so thanks to RunningMommy, I am returning to normality, I think.

    .................goes off to email RunningMommy.
