Hello everybody.
Its my turn to do the bolg and i will actually be
doing it tomorrow as well so that myself and tom can change over days!! But i
have nothing to report at all. Progress has slowed right down and i dont know
why. The waves are a bit indifferent but still, its so frustrating. We seen no
living creatures, not boats, not planes, nothing. How dull.
So, i thought i would try and entertain you in a
slightly different way. I want to bring your attention to two sponsors and then
also a few people at home.
Xuis Computer softwear very kindly sponsored us
very early on in the fundraising process and so their logo and website can
be found on our webiste. However, they have started a new side to the company
under the web name of Are-we-nearly-there-yet.com? We thought it would be great
to have it in full view whilst we are rowing. Its rubbish!!! when its going slow
the last thing you are wanting to remind ourselves of is how far we have to go!
Yet whilst we doing well, its actualy quite good fun! I have to warn you tim, we
have a clean sticker for the end, as this one might start to get defaced as this
trip progresses!, if it slows down!
The second sponsor is Tower House School in sheen.
I know your reading these as i get texts and emails every so often. I hope you
guys are well and following our progress, i cant wait to come and see you all
once we are done!
A massive hello and thank you also has to go to
hannah. She has done so much for me inorder to get to the startline and i have
been calling her up everytime ive been feeling rubbish, which is alot. She
organised some amazing stuff for me to open in the form of letters and also look
at on the ipod. The video's of support make each day go quicker and when im
down, its so nice to hear her voice and get reminded that in the not
too far off future i will be seeing her again. Four lines doesnt do it
justice but thank you. I would call you, you know what, but i thinkthe reation
might be eeeeeeewwwwwwwwweeeeeewwwwww!!!!
To everybody else who has emailed and text, sorry
if i havent got back to you. Once ive done all this rowing i normally juist
want to rest, but do keep the jokes and questions coming and i will try and get
back to you eventually. Laura P, no videos yet, but i will try!
Ok, i better go, i doubt anybody will read this or
tomrrows as your not at work, but have a great weekend.
