Auction of Promises - Bath Racecourse, Thursday 3rd July (NEW DATE) Due to the delayed return of Pacific Pete from Antigua (it wouldn't have been right without him!), I will now be holding an Auction of Promises at Bath Racecourse on Thursday 3rd July. Following a champagne reception, you'll have the opportunity to bid on such marvellous items as VIP tickets to see the filming of BBC sitcom "My Family", a tour of the House of Lords including tea in the Peers' Dining Room and the opportunity to visit the Good Morning America studios in Times Square, New York. Additionally, there'll be (brief!) talks from myself and someone from FARM-Africa (exactly who is still to be confirmed). Please contact me for further information. 13th May 2008

"Sam Williams' heroic voyage is one which I can only enviously admire and heartily applaud. He's doing something that demands enormous effort, concentration and courage. The fact that he's doing all this for such a good cause is something of which everyone involved with Farm-Africa can be immensely proud." Michael Palin, Patron of FARM-Africa, February 2008
