No sooner had we announced the final total than I received another cheque from a sponsor. Now don't get me wrong Every Little Helps (as Tesco will tell you), however checking the date of the cheque and the post-mark of the envelope I realised it was posted on September 10th. This envelope had taken over 10 weeks to travel from Peterborough in Lincolnshire to my office on the Surrey-Hampshire border -- some 118 miles:

That's less than 0.07 mph!

Okay we had a postal strike a few weeks ago, but that started 3 weeks after this letter was posted and finished nearly 4 weeks ago! Anyway here's the revised total:

Any advance on that?

Thanks again!
