In a little over 24 hours I shall be boarding the plane for Delhi and the adventure beginning... I'm getting just a little bit nervous about it all. Its quite an adventure all told... And an awful lot of walking. Hopefully, I will see you all when I get back.

On the fund raising front, my total is now upto £3700, which is great, big thank yous to everyone who has sponsored me to date. Collectively with my other 21 fellow trekkers, we have raised £40,000 which is enough to fund a school or orphanage for poor children for a year covering the building costs, teachers, materials and ensuring that a group of children get to have a bit of a helping hand and taken off the streets. I just now need to have a little bit of hardship for two weeks, which is nothing compared to what those living in poverty go through every day.

I would also like to make a quick special thank you to the 3rd Drotwich Brownie Pack who raised over £160 through a charity Valentines Ball towards my total - so thank you very much.

Right, well I'm all packed so I guess its time to head for them there hills, err, mountains...!
