CLF Post-16 Quiz Night

On Wednesday, I held the first official event of 2015in2015- a quiz night at my sixth form!! Comprising of six rounds, including Dingbats, Only Connect and a music round, the questions were pretty tough, but everyone did really well, and the evening seemed to go down really well. Shout out to BS15 for coming in first place, FDA for second place and 16P for third place!
I'm really pleased to announce that we raised over £80, which is 4% of my overall target- that's amazing!! The hugest of thanks to everyone who turned up, it really meant a lot and it was amazing to feel so supported in my first event :)

When Life Gives You Lemons, Drink Lemonade

This year, I turn 18. It's a landmark birthday, signifying reaching adulthood. In the UK, it's also the age at which I am legally able to purchase alcohol. Hence, for many people, the 18th birthday is celebrated by exercising that right- eg, going out and drinking.
I've been looking forwards to that too- I've even decided where I want my first legal drink to be, and where I want to go for my first night out. However, this year I have something bigger on my mind: the small matter of raising £2015 for charity. Therefore, I have decided that, for the whole of this year, I will not consume any alcohol. None at all. I'm asking people to sponsor my attempt (which WILL be successful!!) and to follow my progress- all support is so so gratefully received!!
That's all from me for now, aside to wish you a Happy New Year- and to make mine a lemonade :)
