Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Now it’s been said that I like a drink…

I can catergorically deny this, I never stop at just one!

New year will see a difference in me as I aim to spring through January alcohol free!

Gulp! Or not, as the case may be!

The aim is to not touch a drop of the lovely stuff (Wine, Beer, Whiskey…hand sanitiser, grapes which have been in the fridge for too long – none of it) from one second after-midnight on January the first, until midnight on January the 31st.

I’ve decided to do this for Mountain Rescue, I’ve never needed them yet – although there was a time on Sca Fell when I’d have gladly accepted a lft from them… I’ve decided to get money for the central organisation as opposed to a regional branch as this will go towards the upkeep and maintanance of a rescue helicoper (or two).

Mountain Rescue are a well-deserving charity as each team is staffed entirely by volunteers who face very real dangers when going out, sometimes in the dead of night on public bank holidays to rescue people trapped in such places as Crib Goch, Snowdon or Helvellyn. 

So, this January, when you are about to have a crafty snifter, or go out on the lash, think of me in my sobriety and if you could see your way to donating to this worthy cause we’d be ever so grateful.

Cheers / Salut / Salute / Noroc!
