One small Steppe

Yep, that pun will be done to death over the next few months....

I sent my first begging email today - well, discounting the few that we fired off as a threesome to several disinterested vehicle manufacturers in the run up to Christmas. Pretty good going that it's only take us a further month and a bit to get round to following it up.

I got in touch with our Asset Finance division this afternoon, in the hope they might have access to an old van they could sell us. I have my expectations firmly set to "pessimistic" but at least I won't be wondering if there's anything they can do for us anymore. I'm imagining asking for anything for free is out the window in these crunched days, but we live in hope someone might at least be willing to sell us stuff at cost price.

Next up - getting the charity site up and running. Have a whole evening to myself tomorrow night so hopefully might be in a decent position to start begging people for cash soonish. Really must start making lists. I hear they help.

Oh, and our Steppe by Steppe blog is registered... I'm finding it hard to let go, albeit temporarily, of STTR though, so have yet to post anything. That, and the fact that Gav has stuck a spanner in the works by suggesting another couple of names we may still change to. Curses.
