Right - that's got January out of the way - wet, windy, dark mornings and dammed Tax Returns all done. Here's looking towards a bright and positive February - spring is just around the corner which cues bringing the bikes out of winter storage - whoo hoo !!
After the 2nd bottle of red, Graham and I agreed on the format of a circular "begging" letter that we are both happy about that we can get out to people by hand delivery and electronically. Despite Cold Artic winds and wearing a daft hat, Graham has posted 30+ letters through local business doors whilst I sit here emailing everyone and their respective dogs. I get zero result but we have phone calls from Charles Birt Estate Agents and TP Hughes Department Store, both here in Tenby saying "Got the letter - cheque waiting for you" - so thanks guys - a nice bump start to our February fundraising activities

We have to make a "stage payment" contribution to the organisers Enduro Africa by the end of February and we are currently running approx £1000 behind our target-to-date

The Charity Rock and Blues Concert scheduled for 26 April 2008 will be a major fundraiser for us and give us the cash buffer for further "stage payments" later in the summer but we have this month to worry about first

So if anyone would like to sponsor and/or contribute, now would a great time to dig deep!
