I know many of you have donated on various cancer fund raisers already this year, so I'm not expecting much response with this. But, as they say 'if you don't ask you don't get'
Two of the great nurses who look after me are walking the Great Wall of China to raise funds for much needed equipment on my ward and if anyone can spare a few pounds it would all help.
I'm asking all my family and friends and all my families friends to all donate just one pound each, that way I think very few people wil say no.
Here's hoping but by the same token don't feel obligated.
If anyone does take the plunge if you maybe put the forum addy and my name in the comments section it may make a few people curious enough to take a peek at the forum
Chris and Josh, thank you so much, that was way more than I was asking for and I am very very greatful.
I know a pound sounds a silly amount to send but many one's soon add up.
My amount will not be up for a while as I'm collecting first and adding as a lump sum.
edit, just excitedly told one of the nurses and she logged on to look, and whos name should be there? Mr Rick Horn, again Rick, I thank you from the bottom of my bottom

Looks like I'ma gonna be pretty busy
Gary,
If you need any help here just give me a shout. I wouldn't want to see you strain yourself in your condition. We're all very concerned for you so just leave these onerous tasks to those of us that are strong enough to help you.

Chris, you're a star, I was wondering how I was gonna cope with you lot being so generous. As they say 'sharing is caring'
If only I could get them to stop wearing my cheeks out and work thier way down
If you wanna join Chris in easing my burden then you better be quick as I think he was planning to use the kisses as a keep fit program and is aiming to hog them all to himself.
Thank you very much John, another very generous donation :D
I'm pretty overwhelmed by the amounts every one has been sending and now I'm home for a week I can organise my contribution and extort money from friends and family here.
Thank you everyone and I hope I get the chance to reciprocate (wow, what a big word for a tired frog) sometime in the future.
I found my wallet, and tried to make a donation...but the VISA Secure site refused to accept it....
Put in a complaint to JG and we'll see what happens.....maybe I've ended up buying some nice jewellery in Turkey, without leaving the comfort of my office (and believe me, that's happened before !).
regards
Tim

Eeeekkk, I hope you've not become a victim again, I had it last year but luckily got every penny back, if it was jewellery I hope it was a nice tiara to mount on those pretty silky locks of yours
BTW, most of my hair has gone now, but the only hair taking it's time is all the bloomin grey I think someones `avin a laugh.

I'll keep my fingers crossed...no one from JG has been in touch yet... which is a bit disappointing, given how much they claim to want to ensure you have a secure transaction....
So, like your namesake, you're a bald Froggi now?
Look on the bright side - there's more skin exposed to "accept" the kisses...
(Of course, you can make us all the more jealous if you could get upload some snaps of the nurses !!! )

You mean like this?
Bend over
Unfortunately although there are a few good lookers most of my nurses are great for their personalities and the fact they find the time to have a joke with you and make you feel good, unlike most other nurses I've encountered in other hospitals who make you feel like you shouldn't be there giving them work to do.
I will take my camera in with me next week and see how many are willing to strike a pose.
