Paperwork schmaper-work!

With a reception looming at Government house next Tuesday for the 10 Charity Challenge crew, sponsors and charities. That means checking the guest list, writing the briefs for the speeches,mine and the other fella's and all the other bits that seem to take forever. Organising the banks to let us take credit card donations online, writing off for permission for golf days, raffles, cake baking in the bank, (not to mention), so I will, the logos to be requested from the sponsors, so they will feature on the website (that I have not written the content for) and on the cycle shirts, that I have not sourced yet, let alone printed.  A text number that people donate to us by texting them and a Coop share number for charity may sound simple, but you have no idea how many emails, and still I am no further with either of them. Ho-hum!

A good short sharp training ride last with Paul Stone felt good as a way of him measuring how much more I have to do. Plenty is the answer to that one. That will include a stint at the Craft Market in St Aubin & Coop St Peters on Saturday afternoon on my static bike with sponsor forms on the table and a bucket in front of me (for the money, not to chuck up in!). Sunday it's a big ride with Paul again. Monday I might do some work, Tuesday is a static bike at Grande Marche St Helier, followed by the that reception at Govt House then Wednesday morning Jersey-Guernsey-Stansted-Jerez to do a TV show on A taste of Scotland, with a flavour of Spain, http://www.studiotalk.tv/show/a_taste_of_scotland_with_a_flavour_of_spain returning of Friday night.

Life is an experience worth having.
