A disaster, my back problems have really flared up this week and I've not been able to get a very comfortable nights sleep let alone jump on a bike. I'm off the chiropractor next week to hopefully get it sorted and with a bit of luck will be able to resume hostilities with the bike over the Christmas period.
The website went public on Shedweb this week and I'm already seeing some donations coming in as well as the current bid for the signed shirt that I'm auctioning off standing at £150.00. I'm extremely grateful to all those who have donated and made bids so far - you really don't know how much it means.
It looks very likely that there will also be a great fund raising gig taking place in June next year. It will be a joint venture with my old mucker Dizzie with the proceeds being split between Scoo-B-Doo and Cancer Research. Full details will appear as they are confirmed but it should be a cracker. In the meantime get yourself over to Dizzie's 'Justgiving page' and help her out on her mad trip around the Great Wall Of China. The link is http://www.justgiving.com/racheldavis For those of you who don't know Dizzie she is a very generous, sometimes fiesty, person who donates al lot of her time to Cancer Research despite not being 100% well at the moment.
Back at home the boys are getting very excited about Father Christmas' imminent arrival. We took them down to Clearwell Caves on Sunday where they had a great time meeting the fat bloke in red himself. I've also managed to convince Charlie that Max, our mental Springer Spaniel, is actually a 'secret' reindeer and that come Christmas eve he will grow Antlers and be off to pull Santa's sleigh. I'm also trying to convince him that he should leave a glass of scotch and a mince pie out for Santa on Xmas eve but Ali seems to think a glass of squash is more appropriate - not if I'm drinking it its not!
