Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The cover price of the new edition of The Bluffer's Guide to Opera is £6.99, but I will be happy to give or post you a signed copy, completely free of charge - though I would appreciate it if you would kindly consider making a donation to my chosen charity, the Iceland Foods Charitable Foundation.

The Foundation supports a wide range of excellent causes, led in 2014 by The Royal British Legion.

Let's face it, I'm never going to raise money by climbing Everest, abseiling down the Shard, walking to the South Pole, swimming in the Thames or running a half marathon, so this is the only fundraising opportunity I am ever likely to get!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
