I'm delighted to say that the amount raised by the OOG Walk has crossed the £1,600 mark! That's excellent (for comparison, we raised £1,155 last year). Thanks very much to everyone who has already sent in your walk money. If you haven't finished collecting, or have some papers on the sideboard waiting to send them to me, please do finish up as soon as you can now. I wonder whether we can top £2,000?

If you enjoyed the OOGWalk, you might also like to go on the South Downs Safari - two separate walks on 26 September and on 10 October, organized by the Portsmouth Action Group and supporting an Oxfam project to help families in Zimbabwe adapt to climate change. You can get a sponsor form and more details from the South Downs Safari website. If you would be interested in shared transport down to these walks, please let me know - we can possibly organise car-sharing (or a coach if there are enough numbers).

Who would be up for an OOGwalk 2011? We are already beginning to think of a route in Abingdon, and there's a pub on the route already....
