I have just realised that we didn't put up the final figure as we had our final event, The Bohemian's playing at the Royal Spa Centre in Leamington Spa where over 400 people had a rocking night out, in February a month after our Just Giving site went off line. It really was quite fantastic to reach that amount as we didn't know it was possible when we started.
So thank you everyone who contributed and supported us. It was a stunning, magnificent effort and a thoroughly enjoyable and memorable year. It did make turning 52 a year to remember after all.

Back to the blog
It is nearly a year since the first adventure got started. Time has romped forward and no I am not cycling in India with the International Childcare this year but I am back in the fund raising business.
I am taking on a new adventure but with hopefully less physical activity. One of our most fun events that came out of the fund raising was our Cycling for Children event where over 60 children and their parents cycled up to 10 kms in Victoria Park one cold November morning and raised over £1200 for children in need. Everyone said how much they enjoyed it and looked forward to doing it again.
So on the strength of that and the goodwill of local sponsors we have scheduled the 27th September to cycle again. Inside of a context of having fun and creating a big game I am on a quest to find children, schools and communities around the globe who want to join us on that date and do the same thing in their towns and raise funds for a children's charity of their choice.
If your children, school community would like to participate contact me and lets cause children choosing charity and helping others.
The wheels are turning again!
