I needed to be at 66% of my £3k sponsorship target during the week, and a flurry of donations from friends on twitter, along with a corporate sponsorship from Pets At Home got me there.
A major spurt to break through my ultimately “required” target came courtesy of a £1000 donation from my company Atlas Elektronik UK. I’ll collect their cheque this week, as I’ve been off work due to my dad’s death and all the funeral arrangements across two countries that’s been going on since Christmas Day. So now all the costs of the trip have been covered, and at least £1k is going straight to Dogs Trust. Anything extra I raise between now and mid March will go straight into their pot as well.
I’ve relisted my wedding dress on ebay here with 25% going to Dogs Trust. Have only listed as a Buy It Now or best offer since last time the bids didn’t even make it above the postage costs let alone the reserve price. I’m definitely ready to let the dress go now Universe, thanks, but lets make it for a reasonable price please? By the way, if you happen to put this on your watch list out of curiosity, could you let me know so I don’t get too excited about the vast number of “watchers”?
With just under 4 weeks until we fly out to Sweden, I’d better get cracking on the fitness challenge ahead, that’s slipped considerably over the last couple of months, so must get back on track so I can run alongside those dogs happily
Another huge thank you to everyone for helping me reach my target so quickly.
