    It sickens me that people are homeless in this country, it really does. Just so sad.

    This website has lots of useful information http://rucksackproject.org/

    My children and I are visiting London in the New Year and we will be taking a couple of small packs to give out.

    Parcel handed over yesterday as was last day I would be near the office, not to the intended recipient as could not find but to another deserving of some good cheer. He seemed pleased and got to admit did watch from a hidden spot to see if the contents met with approval. The chocolate certainly did as was munching that and drinking the tea as went through the bag. It did bring a bit of a lump to my throat and will definitely be doing more in the new year.

    I have also seen a video on line this morning of some teenagers giving out christmas presents to the homeless in Folkestone, very moving and lovely to see the young so caring.
