Many thanks also to Danni Kilford, the wonderful mobile hairdresser from Praze (07738 372774) who not only did a great job, but waived her fee for the charity.
Once again, thank you.

…And So The ‘Hippy’ Is No More…
It’s gone. 2 years worth. Gone. The flowing locks are no more. BUT! What a fantastic thing – through peoples generosity and sponsorship I managed to raise a massive £139 for The Little Princess Trust, the charity I mentioned in my previous post.
I know I hardly get any readers of this blog (if any!), but I would like to publicly thank each and every one of those people who sponsored me. Regardless of whether it was £2, £5 or £10 – the fact is that £139 is a hell of a lot of money and I am so pleased with how generous people have been. Thank you all.
Before And After!!!

The Hair, Oh God, The Hair!!!
The time has come. 2 years after the last cut, it’s time. This time Monday night I shall be cold, no long locks to protect me from the elements! I decided that my long hair took so long to grow that I should celebrate the occasion and not let it go unnoticed leaving my hair on the floor of a barbers shop.
I found a charity online, http://www.littleprincesses.org.uk which was set up by parents of a little girl, Hannah, who died from a tumour not before losing her hair. They accept donations, as any charity does, but they also accept hair donations to be made into wigs for children with cancer & other hair losing diseases.
This is where my hair is destined to go! I’ve also got quite a few sponsors to accompany it and should reach the £100 mark when I have it cut!
A big thank you to all of you who have sponsored me, and I will be seeing you “sans locks” after Monday!!
Back to Cymru!
Well, the holiday is over (boo!) but the fun remains!! I’m off back to Wales this weekend with my ticket for the world cup qualifier against Azerbaijan at the Millennium Stadium. For those of you who have Sky TV, and will be watching the game, I’ll be there next to my dad in the corner of the middle tier!!!
I managed to get a cheap train (yes there are still such things!!) up to Cardiff and as luck would have it Mum & Dad are returning to Cornwall on Sunday, so it would seem natural to get a lift home with them!!!
My addiction to Trackmania seems to be worsening, although my rankings are fluctuating at the moment. More on this later…
I finally gave in to ‘peer pressure’ and signed up with Facebook yesterday! I’d resisted so far but several individuals (you know who you are!!) have pestered me for so long, I gave in! It looks like taking me a while to master all the different aspects of it, although I’ve lasted the first 24 hours without any major problems and I’ve managed to get three friends!!!
Anyway, onwards and upwards, as they say.
