I was too wrapped up in my own life this year to make much of a contribution. The previous 2 RNDs I've organised events and activities at work, raising £300-£400 each time. This year I wasn't even at work for the event, so I just bought a nose and various RND branded items as I saw them (toilet paper, wine, cakes -it's hardly a stretch is it?!)

I watched *almost* the whole show too. Cheeky cheeky monkeys to trail the divine Pegg from the beginning of the show when he wasn't on until 03.05. I gave up at about 03.50 as I was working in the shop on Saturday

How great was Tony Blair? No comment on him re his day job, but respec' for pulling that off so well. And the Nan Deal or No Deal sketch had me laughing out loud (my laughter is usually in the head not the belly on RND).

The only bit I didn't watch was the Jonathan Ross Little Britain sketch. I just can't find vomiting anything other than distressing. I even have to speedread posts which use the vomit smiley because it makes me queasy.

And I cried my eyes out. Of course. I'm afraid I'm really shallow - I cry when the celebs cry, not at the actual plight of the people. Ant & Dec got me every time. The other one was a repeat from a previous year (I think) where the little girl in Ethiopia is looking for her sister. That one got me without needing anyone famous in it. Bawled my eyes out and promised myself I'd stop wishing I were dead just because I'm not happy.

I feel slightly guilty not being more involved this time round. 2009 I'll be back to my normal fundraising self I hope.
