EVENT UPDATE

Please note that I dutifully turned up and waited nervously for 6 hours to do this sky dive on 26th September, for my lovely daughter Ellie, but due to forces working against me (ie. strong winds) we were not allowed to do the jump!

As we are off to Disneyland Paris in October, I am not able to do the dive until June 2008 when my finger nails will have grown back, ready to be chewed off again before the event!

I will contact you all again nearer the time to remind you all to share my panic!

Thank you to everyone who has sponsored me on and off line.

Please support me as I take my life in my hands and leap foolishly out of an aeroplane to raise funds for my beautiful daughter Ellie.

Ellie is 12 and was diagnosed with a brain tumour in March 2007, it is her dream to go to Disneyland Paris with the whole family and have a fantastic holiday to remember.

To raise funds for the trip and for Andrea's Gift I have been volunteered to do a sky dive - no mean feat for me as I have a pathological fear of heights, am absolutely terrified and I can't think of anything more challenging for me to do! 

Please, please dig deep and sponsor me online and give your support to Ellie and Andrea's Gift.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Andrea's Gift will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now! 

Many thanks for your support.
