Story

Thank you so much for visiting my page.   As some of you may remember I used to be a bit of a heffer.  But, having lost 4.5 stone I thought I'd set myself another challenge by competing in the Westonbirt triathlon at the end of May.  I will be doing a 400m swim, 25km bike ride and 5km run.

Ok ok ok, I was talked in to it after copious amounts of red wine.   Either way, it's a challenge!!!!!  I've never done anything like this before.  I never even used to run for a bus and its fair to say I'm finding the training tough going.

However it's not as tough as trying to help over 500,000 people who have had meningitis and to raise awareness of this terrible illness. The Meningitis Trust is a national charity but based very close to where I live and I'd really like it if you could help me help them. It costs them £8000 per day to provide their services.

Purlease, can you find a spare bit of cash to help me raise funds for this fabulous cause? 

Thanking you all so much xxxxx
