- I'm nowhere near as fit as I should be. In fact I'm somewhere off the scale on the "UNFIT" side...
- Older people seem to be more willing to give than younger people. Those in more "affluent" houses - manicured lawn, perfect garden beds, two cars and a boat in the driveway for example - are less likely to give money.
- It doesn't seem to matter if you collect on a Saturday or a Sunday, both days have their advantages and disadvantages - on Saturday a lot of people aren't home because they go out shopping and on Sunday a lot of people aren't home because they are going doing sports or other activities.
- We can never find enough people to doorknock all of Perth... If only we had more collectors
- A good pair of shoes or boots are essential to doing doorknocking :-)
In all, I had a great time as usual - my team and I collected just short of $500 which was fantastic. In the media today they Salvos are reporting that they are on target to have $7million in donations by the end of the appeal.
