<p>UPDATE: Thanks to everyone who has sponsored me. I had a bit of a bumpy ride on the way down due to high winds! You can see the full helmet camera footage on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qv7cnXP0Bb4<br /><br />N.B. Due to high winds on May 2nd, the rescheduled date is now Sunday June 5th (at 9am, if you want to bring some eggs to throw at me).<br /><br />Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.<br /><br />I remember when they built the Lift Tower. Shortly after it was finished, we had a school trip to the top. I was 6* at the time, and it left a lasting impression. I've always wanted to go back up, and now I've got the chance to do that - and come back down again in style!<br /><br />I've never abseiled before, but hey, how hard can it be? I've fallen off loads of stuff in the past - it's going to be just the same but safe... <em>right?</em><br /><br />Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.<br /><br />So please dig deep and donate now. Cash goes to the Mines Advisory Group which gets rid of mines. I like blowing things up as much as the next man (OK, maybe a bit more than the next man), but blowing up people ain't right, so smash up your piggy bank and hand over the coins. Nice one, innit!<br /><br />*I might have been 5 or 7. I could work it and and check the facts and dates and stuff, but what do you take me for, a <em>journalist?</em></p>
