First Donation Towards Expenses Arrives


16 February 2008

First donation towards expenses.

Yesterday a cheque arrived in the post, enclosing a letter stating that the money was a donation towards the expenses of the challenge. You will never know how happy I was to receive that cheque. It proved to me that there are people out there, beyond my computer, that have faith in my ability to achieve what I have set myself. Thank you for that belief.

Today I am going to buy and sim card and send it off to Georges at Geoba. Remember they are the people who have the tracking device that will be fitted to the Alber Adventure so you can follow my progress along the E2E Challenge. The big question is which sim card I should get, an O2, Virgin, T-Mobile. I will revile that when I next write on this blog

I did not get out cold calling yesterday; my excuse was that my PA was not too well. Next week I promise at the latest.

Just to finish, you are now visiting the blog at a rate of 12 a day. That is an increase of 2 per day, and you are still visiting from all over the world. Nice to have you all on board.
