It's been a great sunny sunday, April 17th - my 1st Virgin London Marathon conquered! Its now early tuesday morning, and I'm still craving for more sleep, more water and avoiding all steps or walking if possible. I know if I don't post something now I will never get around to it, here's some pictures - some courtesy of my supporters along the route and postings on Facebook. Thanks to all of you who were there physically or in spirit... and if you want to organise a donation to my charity Deafness Resesarch UK, its not too late! Please go to
