Very many thanks to all of those generous people who have helped me to raise almost £900 in the last week – not all on Justgiving yet and a gentle nudge to those who are still thinking about it.  I was aiming for £500 so I have raised my sights to £1000 and maybe we can raise even more.  Remember it is the country that gave us the Ghurkas.  The link is:

Hopefully this will make a difference to the schoolchildren of Nepal.

Again many thanks and hopefully I will be back in three weeks’ time without frostbite!  There are reports of very cold nights in some of the lodges/tea-houses - minus 19 degrees C.
