Although you'll be thrilled to hear that my poorly back means I'm not at work today, which in turn means I can bore you all with what we've been up to!
The charity auction is looking amazing. The casino it's being held in are being amazingly generous and have also chucked in a couple of prizes - a meal for two from their michelin starred chef and an evening hire of their private cinema. Awesome.
Through not a huge amount of effort we've managed to bag some great auction lots. We've got meals, hair and beauty treatments, a glamour make-over with photoshoot and print, a family Venture photoshoot and print, clothing, limited edition art work and bundles more. I've also sent off a load of letters to large company store managers asking them for stuff too. Fingers crossed.
On a different note, I've spoken to The Scarborough Evening News today and they're covering everything that we're doing - any fund-raising event plus they'd like to hear from us when we're out on the ride too. Should hopefully mean exposure to a few more people and keep the sponsorship money coming in.
Our team 'project manager' Annabel is working on us doing a 12 hour sponsored ride on stationary bikes in the foyer of a supermarket in York sometime soon too - would be great if it comes off, we'll be able to shake the buckets and get some loose change bundled in...
Scarborough and Leeds sponsored walks are looking good. I don't hold out much hope for the weather though, so I think waterproofs and wellies will be the name of the game!
That's it for now. We'll keep you posted....
