I'm Currently Feeling:  | Voted  Hubby linked it to his IRC channel and asked all the guys on there to vote for BLISS, as well. *finger's crossed*.
Although, I agree with Ali; There are definitely more than one deserving charities on that list... I'd be happy to see a few of them 'win' the £20 000. I'd love BLISS to receive it most, though. Just because of how truly needing they are of it - i.e. what they could do with that amount of money, and how many poorly babies they could help save.
For some reason in my mind nothing could be more worthwhile... |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Thanks for voting everyone , checked the site this morning but we are behind a debt counseling charity, it looks like BLISS will be pipped by them?.
ps And yes we had a great Holiday Sam, would never have dreamed it would happen this time last year. what part of Hampshire are you from Sam , we are actually in Yateley , I am trying to get a sponsored walk for BLISS arranged , in very early stages at the moment. We have another one arranged in Sept in basingstoke |

I'm Currently Feeling: | That does seem odd actually - when I voted yesterday there were 2904 votes for Bliss, and when I passed it on to a friend, she voted and said there was that Bliss had 2904 votes - That was almost an hour later? :S |

I'm Currently Feeling: | At one point yesterday afternoon there were 2894 votes and then quite a few of my friends emailed me to say they had just voted but the number did not change. |

I have a suspicion it was slightly unfair, though (can't say this for sure, though!!) - just because a couple of times I know people made their votes and it said a number like 2984 - and didn't change all evening / night.  Hmmmmm  |
