Car Town Needs Mk2 Scirocco's.....

I keep asking them, but so far they haven't responded to my request :-(. Oh well, I suppose I just need to keep plugging away until they do :-)

By the way, if you are on FaceBook why not try this application.It's one of those sort that,even though you never seem to have the time to play,you always find yourself back on it!

(Mk2 Scirocco for Car Town.....again!)

Paul Reynolds, internet developer, commentator and catalyst, dies of leukaemia.

.
His friend Bill Ralston made the announcement thus on Facebook:

"In the spirit with which he lived and pioneered I have to announce this to all his friends online. Dear Paul Reynolds - the magnificent man who told us so much about the whole cosmos of computers and the wonders of the digital world - died this morning of a leukaemia he (and we) never knew he had. Our thoughts are with Helen and his much loved daughter Melanie"

This sad story shows all to clearly how this disease can devestate families.Apparently paul was not aware, and had not been formaly diagnosed with Leukaemia.

Condolencies to his family at this difficult time.

Can you help Alice ? Why not Join the Anthony Nolan Trust Register and find out

.

14 year old Alice desperately needs to find a bone marrow donor to help her win her fight with Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

Could you be that special person who holds the key to making Alice better? Why don't you find out by joining the Bone Marrow Donor Register run by the Anthony Nolan Trust? If you are aged between 18 and 40 and in good health then you may be eligible to join the thousands of others who have already made the stand and pledged to help those in need.

The test itself to check tissue type is now a simple "spit" test.All you need to do is spit in a small tube and the rest is done for you.You no longer have to have a blood sample taken, it really is that simple!.

Please, for the sake of Alice and thousands like her, take the time, make the pledge and perhaps save a life.

For more info about Alice's appeal here are a few links:

Best wishes Alice :-)
