Anyway I just wanted to say thank you to all that have contributed so generously to my appeal in 2011. I have been so thrilled by your kindness. It is hard to put into words how grateful I am to you all.
2012 is going to be a big year all round. We have the Olympics, which I am sure will be a defining moment for this country as we edge our way into an uncertain future. I think for a lot of people we move into a new year with fear and trepidation as to what the future holds.
The famous Apollo 8 shot of the earth appearing after an orbit of the dark side of the moon. Kind of makes our problems seem insignificant
I know that whenever I feel worried, I think of my sisters and the struggle they went through and it always seems to put things in perspective for me. It's a kind of reality check. I truly hope that with hard work and a fair wind, 2012 will see an improvement for us all........oh and there is the little matter of a 1000mile bike ride for me to do too.
So all the very best to you for the New Year.
Here's a selection of my favourite photo's from 2011
