Story

FRIEND'S OF FACEBOOK - Over the last 2 days, our boiler at home was broken... Now anyone that knows me pretty well, knows I am NOT a morning person, I always wake up hungry (and me hungry means I am one grumpy muthaf*ka) and I HATE the cold....  basically I am Scrooge when I wake up.

Waking up in my bedroom (Some form of insulation) for the last 2 mornings, in the dark, both hungry and tired snuggled in my duvet, while on my mattress as I roll over snoozing my alarm, to have '5 more minutes' in bed before I throw my duvet off myself and brace the cold chilly artic temperatures in my room (So it feels), singing some form of song, while trying to preform something, what I call 'dancing' to take my mind off the artic temperatures.... I walk into my bathroom to have a wash. While turning the hot water tap on, and dashing water on my face COMPLETELY forgetting that what should be hot water, of course is FREEZING cold water, this wakes me up instantly.

I then proceed to getting dressed in my ironed shirt, and dry cleaned suit, It suddenly dawned upon me just how lucky we are to have some form of shelter, with 4 walls, heating, hot water, and clean clothes we can wear every day.

On this note, with Christmas just around the corner, I am asking everyone on Facebook to spare the total of just £2 to my JustGiving page. I intend to pass on this money on to the chosen homeless charity called CentrePoint who help young homeless people. The patron of this charity is none other than Prince William - The Duke of Cambridge himself.

Please do donate £2 to my Just Giving Page and share the love, by sharing this around to see how much we can raise for the Charity before Christmas falls upon us!

Many Thanks

Elliott
