My personal message:

2008 marks my 6th consecutive year of fund raising for Guide Dogs.  I have not found a more worthy charity or one that really challenges the participants to achieve something that many of us were not sure we could accomplish when we first accepted the challenge.   I believe that completing the challenge is, in a very small way, similar to the way a blind or partially sighted person feels when they  are able to accomplish their daily tasks with the help of their first guide dog.  A very exhilarating feeling and a life-changing experience.   Your contributions will help others have this life-changing experience.   Please be generous.

Thank you.

Note:  Gail and I are contributing an amount that will cover my costs for the week so every pound you contribute will go directly to the work of The Guide Dogs for the Blind Association.
