Ok everyone don't let me down as some wee kiddies and poor families are depending on us.
After recently visiting South Africa and seeing first hand the poverty in the townships we (the ten of us on the bike tour) decided we would like to make a small difference to some of the people we met. Since we got back we have collected a stack of clothes, books, toys and shoes which i have now boxed up to send to our contact at Karoo Biking to distribute.
The problem is that after getting the stuff weighed in the Post Office last night it is going to cost over £600 to ship.
So, how can I get this stuff over there - somebody suggested using a shipping company - you know the sort that will crate up a GS and ship it. Trouble is I don't know any companies that do this.
Over to you lot - I know you'll come through for me on this....let's play Santa and get these seven boxes into the hands of some families who are less fortunate than us and deserve a break.
