You will remember Birdman (aka James Everson-Crane from the UK) who in support of Lifestart. flew across the Yarra River in Melbourne like a …well like a glorious, white, emu type bird!
Well now the intrepid Birdman is planning to reach new heights. On August 30th 2008 he is planning an ascent of Mont Blanc which at 4810m is the highest mountain in the Alps and all of Western Europe.
Once again James aims to raise sponsorship for Lifestart. He has totally funded his own trip so all money donated will go directly to help those in need. If you would like to sponsor James or give him any words of encouragement, please leave a comment below.
Many thanks,
Lots of Love from Karen.

Hi James the Birdman
Anh James the Birdman men, I wish you to have a very good fly down the Alps of Mont Blanc. I love giving advice and here is one. To get energy to scale down the rough rocks of the Alps, I reckon that you should eat Pho for breakfast, lunch and dinner. You Know Pho? The Vietnamese beef noodle soup that President Clinton had two of when he went to Vietnam. Recently the Foreign Minister of Australia cooked it when he visited the country. I would like to donate $50 to your fund raise. I will work more and will donate to you more next time when you swim down the Mekong out to the Pacific in your next Lifestart Foundation spectacular event. Are you going to the July Dinner Dance? Best wishes, Tam
