How to Become a Follower of this Blog

It costs you nothing to become a follower of this blog. However it does help my fund-raising as it is evidence that  people are interested in the blog. This means I can generate more publicity. To become a member you need a 'google-based' account eg googlemail, gmail, yahoo, btinternet, twitter. You can then click on the 'join this site' icon and follow the instructions. Many thanks to those readers who have already joined.

Diabetes Challenge Update

Thank you for visiting my Travel Blog Page. This is the official home of my 50 Bloggin' Days Challenge to raise money for Diabetes Uk. If you enjoy reading my blog, please consider donating a small amount to my chosen charity Diabetes UK. If you scroll down you will find days 1 to 3 and also a few other 'test' bits in which I try to improve my technical skills with only limited success.
Please revisit this page on 4th October to read day 4.
(Please note I have now added a justgiving link to my blog which is easier to use than the original diabetesuk link   http://www.justgiving.com/ClaireBaldry )
