On 28th October 2007, I'll taking part in a sponsored ride to raise funds for The Royal Marsden's Cancer Campaign.  The Royal Marsden Hospital strives to develop a positive partnership with patients to help them deal with cancer. Through this, patients not only receive the latest treatments, but also rehabilitation and assistance at many levels.  We all know someone who has been affected by cancer. If you can spare a pound (or dollar) or two, please sponsor me and help us to help the Royal Marsden Hospital to help combat cancer.  You can do so online, quickly, safely and easier through my sponsorship page on justgiving (which is just like the US firstgiving website). I'm aiming to raise at least £500 towards the overall target for the sponsored ride of £15,000.  If I raise more I'll do the ride in fancy dress and promise share the photos after!

I've hardly put my nose outside my front door tomorrow - and every time I did, it got frost bitten. But yesterday I had half an hour to kill around Victoria. What better way to spend the time that to release a few more books into the wild. Here's what you might find if you go hunting around the train and bus station (paritcularly as none have been journalled yet). Four of five books are science fiction, so a real treat for fans of that genre of fiction.

Undercover Aliens by A E Van Vogt

As Time Goes By: A Biography of Ingrid Bergman by Laurence Leamer

The Mind Cage by A E Van Vogt

The Net by Loren J Macgregor, and

War Against the Rull by A E Van Vogt
