T-Rex Planet Tour Cancer Awareness Day 3

T. Rex eats ferry!

Rexy visited the Mull of Galloway today; Scotland's most southerly point then onto Portpatrick for some lunch. He then asked to visit Belfast and when I said we didn't have time he ate the ferry! More photos of Rexy's tour of SWScotland can be found here.

Today's blip is dedicated to a friends's late wife who sadly passed away fifteen years ago after a long and painful battle with bowel cancer. Today, 9 out of 10 people beat bowel cancer when it's found early.

Check out the information at www.bowelscreeningtest.org (Scotland) or www.nhsinform.co.uk (UK) or contact your own GP who will have leaflets and more information.

It was sad to return home today to hear that Lewis Collins has died after a five year battle with cancer. The Professionals was a favourite TV programme of mine for many years. My thoughts are with his family.

Rexy is travelling the globe to raise awareness and here's how the whole thing works....

"T. rex is travelling the globe promoting cancer awareness. One person keeps the T-Rex for a week and take photos portraying the T-Rex however she/he feels like, be creative, have fun. Dedicate the photos to whoever you feel like, post them here and in the social media of your choice, Instagram, Twitter, Tumblr, just make sure tag your photos #t_rex_planet_tour_cancer_awareness.

When the person finishes with the 7th or more photos she/he will send the T-Rex to another person in any place on the planet, and that other person will send to another one and so on..."
