My friend, Charlie (whom I think I mentioned somewhere in my blog), is doing the Hitch again this year, only this time to Croatia. I'd love to do it again, but 3rd year uni work is hell. Still if you have any questions at all about my Hitch, or need fundraising advice, ask away.Steve:-https://www.blogger.com/profile/09082391475861115173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6658352463992192277.post-25599324927098831902011-12-27T00:01:14.359+00:002011-12-27T00:01:14.359+00:00hey, i just found your blog whilst doing some rese...hey, i just found your blog whilst doing some research for the Hitch i'm doing this year :)<br />super excited, and your blog is epic, made me so much more excited and so entertaining to read, so thanks i guess ^_^ glad you had a good time, hope i don't have as much trouble with partners as you did.. :p xhimynameisEmilyܤhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06856041316954452485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6658352463992192277.post-9043649970359753732011-06-30T16:59:09.292+01:002011-06-30T16:59:09.292+01:00Tangier is the country's gateway, so all of th...Tangier is the country's gateway, so all of the locals know you're a newbie in town.

Sounds like you had a blast, thanks for taking the time to record it all :) <br /><br />Everyone I've talked to seems to get scammed in Tangier. Our personal one was far less elaborate than yours; a simple "guide" who refused to leave us be and then demanded money. Our refusal resulted in much commotion :pSimon Bromleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17801500408359260316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6658352463992192277.post-70419417483349422352011-03-10T09:42:35.950+00:002011-03-10T09:42:35.950+00:00*Backs away slowly*

I thought it was funniest when people saw us and didn't even try to hide the fact they were veering off at obscure angles and into traffic to avoid us.<br /><br />As for fundraising schemes, Pancake Day is coming up soon. I was thinking of making and selling pancakes for a quid each on campus. Not sure of the logistics, though, as I don't own a portable stove or hotplate :bSteve:-https://www.blogger.com/profile/09082391475861115173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6658352463992192277.post-74477979317222231542011-02-20T15:32:58.910+00:002011-02-20T15:32:58.910+00:00Hi!

It seems the people of York are a lot less hostile than Mancunians! We only had one woman suggest we should be looking after British kids instead, and even then she did so whilst chucking a quid in our bucket! Other non-interested people just ignored us/veered to the other side of the street. Completely agree with the tie thing, business people were a complete no-go. <br /><br />Unfortunately whilst York's people were nice, the council weren't. One worker forced us to stop and angrily yelled at our hitch reps for breaking a bunch of the ridiculous red tape rules such as not being able to "approach" people. <br /><br />Anyways, I'm following your blog :) Good luck with fundraising.Simon Bromleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17801500408359260316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6658352463992192277.post-25622776179913443732010-11-15T11:54:30.957+00:002010-11-15T11:54:30.957+00:00You know it's true! :DYou know it's true! :DSteve:-https://www.blogger.com/profile/09082391475861115173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6658352463992192277.post-77448610436329400742010-11-15T09:37:36.643+00:002010-11-15T09:37:36.643+00:00Corrupted to the core? eh????

But, this means that with your help, I have still raised a pretty formidable total of £58.97 so far.Steve:-https://www.blogger.com/profile/09082391475861115173noreply@blogger.com
