Story

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Ahead of the CAT trip to South Africa and Malawi next month, both of us will be raising money for the One Foundation next week (wc 24/10/2011).</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">We both plan to take a long hard look at all the things we have that we take for granted and that make our lives easier&hellip;and take them all away for a week so we can learn to appreciate them more. </span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">So, that means no TV, radio, music, internet, social media, coffee, tea, booze, or manufactured, pre-bought food.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Iain will also be sacrificing his gym pass and bike and will walk to and from work instead.
