I am playing four rounds of golf in one day in July with three friends to raise some money for Macmillan Cancer Support. It won't be easy but we're up for the challenge.
If you could spare even a pound it would be fantastic, you just follow the link at the top of this post.
I won't ask again, but thought you might be interested.

Edinburgh University unofficial tour guide!
Hi all,
As I mentioned in the class today, Alison will be very glad to show you around Edinburgh University, either before the end of this term or at the start of the new term around September time. She has end of year exams in May.
Remember, she was an Access (to Humanities) student at Stevenson College in 2009-10 so knows what you are going through and what you can expect at Uni.
She was saying that although the group talks are helpful and in many ways informative that the Uni set up, you don't really get the chance to find out where the good study places are, where to park, how to get a permit, where to eat etc etc.
To this end she would be happy to meet with anybody on an individual basis or even in small groups if you wanted an unofficial recce of Edinburgh Uni.
Her e mail address is aehadley@hotmail.co.uk and her mobile number is 07889879322. If you are contacting her just let her know that you are a member of the Access to Languages class and she will definitely reply!!!
Hope this helps,
Mark

Watch thousands of TV clips from across Europe - another useful resource
Watch thousands of TV clips from across Europe
In addition to and Click View documentaries that may be of help to you, in this resource you have over 14,000 items of archived TV footage from 17 European countries now available via the EUscreen online portal for teaching, research and general interest.
EUscreen – the result of a collaboration between 36 partners across Europe – provides a rich insight into Europe’s television heritage with content dating from the 1920s to the present day.
The portal includes rare footage and commentary on key events in history, including a 1962 interview with Martin Luther King about racial discrimination in the US.
John Ellis, Professor of Media Arts at Royal Holloway and principal investigator on the EUscreen project, said: “This is a valuable resource for anyone interested in social history or indeed TV history, as it brings together tens of thousands of clips from across Europe. The portal is available to anyone (not only academics) and it is very easy to get absorbed and spend hours browsing all of the footage.”
The expansive footage has also proved popular as a learning aid for foreign language students, with clips available in 14 languages.
By the end of September 2012, there will be around 30,000 items of digital content freely available on the portal as the European providers continue to add carefully selected material.
