WEATHER!!!!

Well......... the sleet / snow/ rain is horizontal and a week today we kick off serious training with a walk of 96 miles in 5 days..... the West Highland Way, here we come!!!!

Looking forward to it, but really really hoping the weather improves! (just ever so slightly dreading it) but it's lots of walking (without Cooper though, poor Coopsy!) with people that I love, so it's all good!

Had a day with Di today, we got out yellow fever vaccine, and started the getting the Tanzanian visa process, what a palava! We had to get passport pics taken, so here we are, in the pissing rain, sat in the car reapplying our make up...... that is like SOOOO going to be us up that mountain! Wonder if the guides realise we are putting full slap in there for them to carry, along with the case of vino?

tick tick tick

it's getting closer!

Another fundraiser drawing close, more cash to go in the pot, we are almost at £5,000, which we are utterly delighted about!

Halfway there, just need to get the bodies in shape now! Eeeeek. Staying off the wine now too, well cutting back anyway, well..... maybe in a week or 2... nearer the time!
