Why have I waited until I'm 74 to have a tattoo? I don't even like tattoos! They're all right for other people, but not for me. Then a challenge came my way, to Live Full and Die Empty (LFDE); to do something adventurous, something different. At the same time I was also challenged by the needs of our friends running the Freedom Heroes project in Kampala, who are doing their utmost to support the street kids who come to them. They don't have enough money to feed them all, let alone pay their medical bills. So why not have a tattoo and ask people to sponsor me? I will do whatever it takes to see these children safe and well cared for, so I intend to have "whatever it takes - LFDE" tattooed on my arm, and I hope to raise at least £1,000 by the beginning of December. I'm extremely grateful to Skinzophrenic Tattoos in Hereford, UK, who have very generously offered to not only do the tattoo free of charge, but have also said they would like to sponsor me. Thank you so much for your support.
