That's a lovely view you've got there, Martin.

I know Martin probably got a proper thank you from Samaritans general office for taking part in and helping to publicise stress down day, but I just wanted to add my thanks on here to Martin and all the other celebs who wore their lovely green slippers on stress down day. The Samaritans is, of course, a charity (actually each individual branch has to do it's own fundraising to keep going, as well as getting some support from general office), so we need all of the publicity we can get, but also any publicity like this helps promote what we actually do - unlike most well-known charities the majority of people have heard of us but think that they actually have to be on the point of suicide to contact us or else they have no idea what we do.

So once again many thanks to everyone who took part in stress down day!
