Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As most of you know my Dad passed away in August as he lost his battle with cancer at Christchurch Macmillan Hospital. They helped him out so much in the last two weeks of his life so I want to do something to give back to them.

When Amanda saw the poster for the 'White Christmas Dip' (more information at www.whitechristmasdip.co.uk) I couldn't think of a reason why not (apart from its going to be really cold - but minor details haha). Its not just a dip though Amanda and I have to be in fancy dress outfit so I was thinking of dressing up as a scuba diver so I get to wear my wet suit but thats cheating so my Mrs Claus outfit it will have to be. 

Amanda and I (and mum to take photos) will be down at Bournemouth beach at 10.15am Christmas morning and I'm sure Dad will be there watching over us laughing hysterically at how stupid we look and how mad we are to go into the sea on what will probably be the coldest day of the year knowing our luck.

Anyways think of us on Christmas Day when you're in your lovely warm house with a hot glass of mulled wine as I will be freezing from head to toe. Any donation that you are able to donate is a bonus and will be very much appreciated by me and the people at the Macmillan unit in Christchurch. Merry Christmas everybody and good health for next year.
