EDIT:
Hi all
I'm running the London Marathon 2006, on the 23rd April. Thats this
Sunday, as in, 4 days away!!

I am trying to raise as much money as possible for The Stroke
association.
Please click (http://www.justgiving.com/mikebarrett) and
sponsor me now before its too late, or you forget! The website in the link
is 100% secure and verified. If you would prefer to sponsor me in a
different way, i.e. by sending a cheque, then please reply to this email, so
I can let you know my address.

Here is some information about The Stroke Association:
There are one million people in this country who are suffering from the
effects of stroke. Young and old, this devastating illness affects 150 000
people each year.

The Stroke Association helps with prevention,education as well as aspects
of rehabilitation to help get people back home with their loved ones and
be able to lead a more active and comfortable life.

Please dig deep and sponsor me online.Every pound can help a stroke
survivor and their families.
£20 keeps the Stroke line open for an hour
£50 helps publish information leaflets

Many thanks in anticipation of your support which will enable me to reach
my target amount.

Also please send this on to any family or friends so that I can exceed my
fundraising targets!

lol, i wish i was doing it in the car!

Thank you very much for your donation. I really appreciate all the money
that gets donated.

Without going into detail the stroke associatation are doing massive
amounts of research at the moment into a major break through in
medicine which has been introduced in a a couple of hospital across the
UK. But it could reduce the number of people suffering from disabling
effects after having a certain type of stroke!

Come on people sure every single person here could donate a pound or
two!! smileys/smiley2.gif

Again thankyou very much. Its good to see my amount raised keep
rising. Wonder if i can get to 25% of total target raised by the end of the
month? 25% of the target is £500 so hopefully get that!

I hope i do well too, thinking about nicking my sisters sony digi cam as
its only small and taking it round with me to get photos!

smileys/smiley5.gif i got an email back from the saying they didnt accept my card, do they not take the visa electron cards??

barrett
26th March 2006, 19:03
i'm not sure mate. Same thing happened to cloud but not sure what card
he used.

All i can suggest is to try again and see if it works, you may have typed
something in wrong?

It would bring me a couple of pound closer to the £100 a week target.
