Accord Hospice 100-Story Blog: DAY 81















Thank you all so much for supporting Accord Hospice. Their annual operating budget for the upcoming year is over 2 million pounds (nearly $5 million dollars) and they can use all the assistance they can gather from the local and international community. They are a truly wonderful organization, and I'm proud to have them as my charity of choice for this fund raiser. You can look them up on the web at

Well, it's getting down to the wire now...I'm a bit late posting Tuesday's story, and I apologize, but I was a bit under the weather again last night, tho' for a different reason. Anyway, here is today's story, and once again, thank you all for supporting Accord Hospice. Nancy.

DAY 81

STORY #81

Lost

George and Karen were on holiday, driving though a remote part of the country. They’d been driving in their caravan, along a deserted road--not even so much as a sheep to look at, for about an hour. Finally, Karen had had enough. “We’re lost, aren’t we?” She asked frostily.

George paused, then said firmly. “No.” Karen looked out the window at the barren landscape, retorting, “We’re in the middle of nowhere!” George snorted, “Don’t be silly.” Karen pointed at a road sign. “Look, George!” Stopping the caravan, George gaped at the sign: “WELCOME to Middle-of-Nowhere. Do enjoy your stay.”
