Picture of Doodle - a black cat

Welcome to Doodlecat - where we enjoy the great outdoors and gather a range of news and views. Much of the content is courtesy of the generous contributions from the splendid people who participate in the annual TGO Challenge, so there is a wealth of outdoor experience here, especially if you like walking in Scotland - but we try to range worldwide.

The home page is where we post the latest news and views from the Doodlecat team. You can have your say too! Just click on the 'comments' link on any of the posts - or if you have a story or photogallery that you think we'd like, then let us know. Random Doodles and the Image Gallery welcome guest contributions, as well as the perennial favourite, the TGO Challenge pages

The blogroll on the right displays ten links to other sites that you might like to try out - there are a lot more, and the list will change each time you visit or 'refresh' the page.

Enjoy your stay.

New Charity Challenger

Doodling around on the world wide wotsit, I came across a website set up by a newcomer to the TGO Challenge, Jules Eaton.

Jules is raising money for two worthwhile charities, The RAF Benevolent Fund, whose work is well known, and a new charity Help for Heroes. Help for Heroes is currently raising money for a much needed swimming pool and Gymnasium at Headley Court - target, £6million.

To quote from the Help for Heroes website:

"We are non political and do not wish to comment on the rights and wrongs of a particular conflict; we simply want to do something to help those very special people who are brave enough to volunteer to serve their country and are wounded while doing so."

Many people walk for charity each year, and we all support as many as we can. I have dipped my hand into my pocket again for Jules' charities (RAFBFin my case) - I hope you can find a few quid as well.

His 'Justgiving' page for the RAF Benevolent Fund is here, and Help for Heroes is here.
