I'm impressed! Woo!

But who raised the most?? Emily or Sarah? :P Did Martin get more joy as the day went on?? Did Biddle get his chain?? So many questions! So little time!

Sarah raised the most. She resorted to begging and admitted to a certain "Hugs for cash" scandal.

Sarah raised the most. I ate the most. Dan carried the most.

I also achieved the greatest faux pas when a young woman told me that she really appreciated all we were doing because her parents were deaf & I responded "Excellent!".

The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is to high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it.

Never look down on someone unless you're helping them up.

I raised the most! WHOOP! and elliot lost his ID in general, so no chain was needed!

IT was not 'hugs for cash'! it was 'hugs for donations!'

There IS a difference. and it worked, as my heavy bucket proved.

Yay indeed for the people of Croydon!

I look forward to Bromley but hope that they give more notes and less coppers so it doesn't take Wilf and I three and a half hours to count it all again!

Does anyone else's arm hurt?
