Have you ever wondered how the different charities fund their
work? Barnardo's, The NSPCC and National Children's Homes
all do great work in helping abused and disadvantaged
children. The Friends of the Earth Trust who work to
conserve and protect the environment for future
generations. Marie Curie Cancer Care who assist and care,
not just for people with cancer but their families. These are
just a few of the very many charities that can be helped in
various ways, whether it be with time or money, you could
nominate your own favourite charity and help in some small
way. |

This is one of our more adventurous suggestions, although
the mountain doesn't necessarily have to be the size of
Everest. There are many more smaller mountains both in this
country and abroad that novices can walk up as opposed to
climb up.
To stand at the base of a mountain and to look up and not be
able to see the summit is awesome. Feeling the cold, the
tiredness and the breathlessness at a great height and then
feeling the joy of knowing you have conquered the mountain
as many past climbers have done is indescribable, not to
mention the spectacular views. Whether it is a mountain or a
very big hill you have climbed, the feeling of achievement and
freedom is the same.
For extra motivation you could also choose to make the climb
for charity and raise money for your favourite cause. |

How many people can honestly say they have never done it?
For whatever reason, for the sheer pleasure of being able to
get up late in the morning, to have breakfast at your leisure,
to spend the day in complete relaxation doing what YOU want
to do...but, remember to come up with a good excuse
because people are always suspicious - your boss would have
done it as well at some point. A good excuse is to say you're
having problems in the nether regions, we guarantee they
won't ask for further information. |

The hustle and bustle of Christmas shoppers on the streets,
ice skating in Central Park, the elaborate shop window
decorations, and the enormous Christmas tree at the
Rockefeller Center all combine to make New York one of the
most festive and magical places to spend your Christmas.
All over the city you'll find decorations celebrating the holiday
season including a giant snowflake suspended above 57th
Street and Fifth Avenue, home to Bergdorf Goodman and
Tiffany's. Stroll along Park Avenue and you'll be enchanted
by the 2 miles of lighted Christmas trees stretching from 46th
to 96th Street.
Gaze in awe at the department store windows transformed by
designers into miniature Christmas worlds enticing you inside
to do some last minute Christmas shopping, just leave enough
room in your suitcase to bring back all of your presents. |

There was once a time, long before cars and crowded public transport, when
the only respectable way to travel was on horseback. No traffic jams, no
music from other people's headphones, just man and beast.
Nowadays, our sugar cube munching friends have been relegated to show-
jumping, racing, and patrolling football matches. Why not do one of them a
favour and take them for a stroll in the country. See what it's like to travel
engine-free. They like it - and so will you. |
