I have been 'persuaded' to run the Edinburgh Marathon on 23 May. In doing so I am hoping to raise some money for a charity called Borderline.

Borderline is small charity based in London working with homeless and insecurely housed Scots based in London. Their website gives more details on the scope of their valuable work - www.borderline-uk.org

I can assure you that any donations will be greatly appreciated by Borderline and will make my wee trip around Edinburgh a lot more worthwhile. My sincere thanks to all those who feel able to  support this worthy cause.
