Okay lets get the update out of the way as I have a much more important mission upon which to focus in this post.

Remember at 11.30pm that I'm supposed to be at Sputnik for Shauna's birthday (I am SOOOOO sorry, I will organize a post-birthday picnic for you missus)
Question: Why have PeePee, Pony, Dilbot, Enda and Chris developed a weird Gary Glitter fixation?
Right that's all that rubbish out o' the way.
A couple of months back my uncle got a lovely tiny new puppy of the little black lab variety called Becka. She is beautiful and when we first visited her we had great fun doing puppy things like chasing balls and tickling tummies. Last week however we realised that her recent strange behaviour has been down to the fact that she has gradually been going blind. Becka now can't see a sausage and gets scared awful easy by big noises and her doggy companions. My uncle's really upset and we're really upset and Becka's really upset and its a pretty darn rotten situation all round.
There's an operation that can be done which has a slim chance of restoring her eyesight. The catch is it costs £1000. I really really badly want to help.
One way I'm thinking of doing this is perhaps by arranging (hopefully with some of you guys' help) some sort of benefit to raise funds? Maybe some people would help us? Cover versions of 'Hound Dog' and 'How Much Is That Doggy In The Window'? Even if we could raise a little bit of money? Restore Becka's puppy power?
