Best Laid Plans

So I’m not cycling across the country. I’m sitting in my lounge watching Star Trek and have just eaten a chip supper.

Less than twenty four hours before the team left to begin our challenge, my wife hurt her back and is still in considerable pain. I’m needed here, so I cannot be there.

It’s physics, in the greatest tradition of Scotty. I cannae be in two places at once.

If you want to follow the progress of the team, they are posting updates on the Kids UK Facebook account.

So the milestone of my 300th blog post becomes not a review of a successful fundraising achievement but instead a notice of temporary setback. I will complete this cycle challenge. But not this weekend. It may even be next year before the opportunity arises.
