    Wow a trek in Peru, for the NAS, what an excellent charity. Not many support it. Good on you, my 13 yr old son has a form of autism.

    I hope nobody is trying to sponsor us today, as the links haven't worked for hours!

    Hi isualive & finallydebtfree,

    I'm not sure about putting the more personal blog links on posts either - BUT - one thing I do know is that quite a few put links on their personal profiles, so that must definately be allowed. Why not ask a moderator. Good luck girls!

    Sue.

    Good luck to everyone who is taking part in the Race for Life 2008. I did my first one last year, ended up walking it as my friend had back problems and could not run but we did it!

    I am doing the race in memory of my aunt who passed away 18 months ago she was in her 80s but unfortunately had cancer 3 times in her lifetime. Her daughter and grandaughter have also been diagnosed with breast cancer so also doing the race from them they are such an inspiration.

    I now have my fundraising page sorted, if there is anyone who is not already sponsoring a friend or relative in the race for life and you would like to sponsor me my page is

    Thanks in advance to anyone kind enough to sponsor me

    finallydebtfree!! Your blog is excellent. Technology is amazing. My eldest son is at Uni & next year he hopes to study in Europe. If he does he has promised to do a blog & a video diary. It's a lovely way to keep in touch!
