Act 43: Wrote for a Book on Communication Difficulties.

My dad's speech therapy communication group is planning on putting together a short book about living with a communication difficulty. Because it would be difficult for some of the members of the group to write a contribution, family members were approached to write their perspective on living with the speech difficulties.

So, I responded to their request and wrote a small section on what it's like living with Stephen and understanding what he means from what he says. I'm not sure when the short book will be published, or if it will be only available in my dad's hospital, but I'll keep you updated when I find out more.

Act 42: Said Goodby to Mareike.

Today was the German exchange student's last day in England, so Immy invited everyone round to her house to celebrate and eat things like feta cheese and Rivita biscuits. It was good.

Goodbye Mareike!

Act 41: Waved at a Helicopter.

Today, when I was walking Cassie, a helicopter flew over us and we waved at it.

Well, Cassie didn't wave because she's a dog... But I did!

A New Plan.

So, as the more observant of you have noticed, Immy and I haven't been able to keep up to date with all the acts as we originally planned, plus we don't have any spare time (thanks for nothing, education) to go out and do all the fantastic acts we were really looking forward to doing! Therefore, from now on there won't be an act posted every single day, but rather the fantastic acts carried out a few times a week.

There will still be 100, more will be carried out in the summer thanks to the extra time, but they won't be done when we originally planned.

We're sorry for being silly,
But we'll try to make up for it in awesomeness.

Love always,
Chloe & Immy.

Act 40: Adopted a Dolphin.

Today, Immy and I clubbed together and adopted a dolphin. (I wanted to adopt an otter - because I love otters! - but sadly the WWF don't provide that service.) You can adopt your own animal here from as little as £3 a month! There's 12 different animals to chose from and as well as helping to save a species, you also get a CUTE CUDDLY TOY! Win/win.

Act 39: Raised Awareness for Goodsearch.

"Taken from 366 Acts of Kindness, because that's where our inspiration is from! Today I raised awareness for Goodsearch. It's pretty much Google or Yahoo! (it's actually powered by Yahoo!) in that you type into a search bar and search the internet. HOWEVER - every time you search something it donates a penny to a charity of your choice! Now it might not seem like a lot...but think about the amount of times you use Google. So today I went around my college advertising it." - Immy x

Act 38: Fixed Nick's iPod.

"My little brother Nick pesters me to put music on his iPod because he doesn't have a computer and therefore doesn't have iTunes. Today I went through all 3000 of my songs, picked out ones that I thought he'd like, created a playlist and surprised him by spending half an hour updating his unbelievably slow iPod with all the new tunes." - Immy x

An Apology.

As you are probably aware, Immy and I haven't been around to be kind for the past few days. The good news is everything is better and we are now back! The acts will continue as normal from where we left off starting tomorrow. (That puts us exactly one week behind schedule.)

We are so sorry for the delay, it won't happen again. Thank you for bearing with us.

Much love,
Im & Clo. x

Act :

I would like to apologise on behalf of myself and Immy. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, no acts have been written up or recorded this week. This is nothing to worry about and all the acts will be filled in once everything is better.

Apologies once again,

Im & Clo. x

Act 37: Signed a Petition.

Another one from AllOut.org.

Act 36: Bought a Charity Single.

Today, Immy and I bought a charity single, which will be explained further on Immy's YouTube Channel on the weekly video. I'll leave you in suspense until then...

Act 35: Repaid Dad.

Immy: "Today, thanks to being paid, I repaid my dad. He loaned me enough money to buy my brand new, sexy, ukulele. So, as well as paying him back, I also bought him a questionable amount of dark chocolate to thank him for loaning me the money in the first place."

Act 34: Washed Up.

Today, after being on a busy shift at work, the only chef that was working was rushed off his feet - so I washed, dried and put away all the pots for him to help out.
