Wow!!!! The press release we organised with the Evening Post about the Make Poverty History awareness making day has made it on the third page of the Evening Post - a local paper in Swansea!!!! Theres a big photo of YC with the MPH tape that we used and Sarah is quoted lots in the article!

Its strange. I'm feeling a variety of emotions about it. I'm happy and excited that it got in and it increases the whole awareness raising. I'm very pleased for my friends who got a mention either in a photo or mentioned in the article. But i can't help thinking, but, what about me??? I did a lot of the organising (with Sarah) and I want my five minutes of fame. Is that really such a bad thought? I know i should just be happy that it got in, and i shouldn't be selfish by wanting my picture in the paper, because we didn't do it to get our pictures in the paper we did it to help all the dying children. But..... still, a mention would have been nice.

I suppose if I did get my photo on page 3, i would have got an awful lot of stick. The Evening Post isn't The Sun, but still, not sure whether i would want my photo on page 3.
