Just had the good news that are books are now ready to be sent to me. If anyone would like one just let me know. The online giving page is now closed but only yesterday I received a cheque in the post to add to the funds , so the money is still coming in, thanks everyone.

Got a surprise package through the post this morning. A proof copy of my book, I didn't expect it so soon.  It looks good to me so I have sent the official order through and they start on the printing tomorrow.  It will soon be available for distribution and will make excellent stocking fillers and you'll have the satisfaction of knowing you're helping charities as well

I enjoyed the evening at the Leeds church. The Indian food was delicious! I prepared a power point presentation but when I tried to use their computer I couldn't open the file and then a message came up that it was 'corrupted' so that was the end of that. Fortunately I had a power point that I had used before at another church so I was able to use that. It seemed to go OK.

This morning I sent my book manuscript to the publishers, I have been told it should be ready in about three weeks. That is good news and it is a relief to know I have finished my part and just have to wait for the finished result.

I'm still receiving some donations which is very encouraging, but we'll soon be drawing everything to a close so if anyone has been intending to donate but has not got round to it, now would be a good time. 

On Saturday I am over in Leeds doing a presentation in the local Nazarene church, the evening has an Indian theme and we are encouraged to  wear traditional Indian dress and taste some of the authentic cuisine.

The manuscript for the book is almost ready to be sent to the printers, we are aiming at having that done by weekend.
