53 votes so far - we're already behind some animal charities (we're animals too! :aghhh:) but from my memory of Aviva contests, I think at this stage we're voting to get into the next stage.

Is that right, @frenchtulip?

Get voting, everybody, and tell all your friends! You don't need Facebook and this will be FREE RESEARCH MONEY!!! :nerd::nerd::nerd:
