Our fundraising total now stands at £2,001.61! So thank you to everyone who has helped us reach our target figure.

You're probably fed up with me saying that I never thought we'd get more than £500 - but it's true - and we're really incredibly touched and grateful to everyone who has donated. What stars you all are!

By popular demand, here's a picture of my favourite Christmas decoration and, yes, it really is a pink transvestite poodle. I'd keep her out all year if I didn't have to dust her, but at least having her put away each year means that I have a reason to look forward to Christmas - 'cos I'll see her again!

Jon's had his bike MOT'd today and loved riding it after 2 months of it being in the garage. We're looking into altering the ride-height on my bike so that I feel as secure on it as I did on the Enfield.

We've finally had all the India photos printed and are in the process of putting an album together - so prepare to be bored to death if you come round! In fact we'll probably bring it with us when we visit... you have been warned!
