I have reached my target - in fact I am £1 over

£101 for the Hospices.
To be honest I blagged it with Mum; I knew she could raise the money, but wasn't sure it was possible for me.
I will continue to bump because the money is for charity and not for me, but I don't intend to make a nuisance of myself.

I know it's not possible to financially support everyone and everything, so written support really does mean a lot to me. Anything posted here helps me, and any amount of £ or $ I raise helps dying people leave this world with love and respect. People you will never meet. I think that reflects the calibre of people in the Cellar.

Sorry, I'm a tad sentimental tonight. Mum took the plunge and is now volunteering 2 days a week at a nursing home which specialises in patients who are frail and/ or suffer from dementia. She did try the hospices but there are training and counselling qualifications you need first.

I might not always praise her to the skies, but she is a good woman. And when she told me that she agreed to two days a week because that's what I was doing when I volunteered at my school I got all tearful.

Thanks to everyone.

ETA I have tried to figure out the way to thank people via the website, but it seems to be reliant on Facebook. Or I am just a plum. LJ, if you have received about 5 automated emails please forgive me. And the rest of you have nothing!

AE, you must be a British Dwellar, but I have no idea who you are. Feel happy to stay Anon but accept my thanks. PM me if you'd like me to know who you are.
