Thank you mowsehowse for your post.  :) It is good to hear that you are keen too, to participate again this year.  I think this is a legacy for the future.

I think we just send our entries in again like we did last year and I think they will confirm receipt as previously.

From this question and answer page (see link) it appears that our entries will be kept anonymous unless we indicate other wishes. (See the answer to the question about friends and relatives being able to view your diary.)

Our wishes will be kept on file.  This time when I send my entry in I am going to add that I am happy to waive my anonymity after my death.  I doubt my diaries will ever contain anything sensational and I like the idea of future descendants being able to read these entries of mine. :)

Hello
I sent an email to the organisers to check if they would accept my diary entry as I live in Australia and they have confirmed that they will accept entries from here. So I am sharpening my pencil!

Thanks for these posts Jackiemh, Macushla and mowsehowse.

I am glad you have had official confirmation that they will accept your entry from Australia - Jackiemh.

Last year I just sent my entry on an email  - quite straightforward and this was acceptable for them.

Hi Threlfelyorky,

I am glad to hear you are interested in taking part again this year.

All you have to do is send your diary entry on email to the email address shown on their website.

You will find this on top link on my first post.

You must add the statement which is shown on their website at the bottom of your diary entry. This starts with "I donate my 12th May diary..."

Nice and easy! :)
