    Thought for the day

    Well, it was Tuesday actually, but hey ho.

    Sat in my house, which is for sale, fretting about if it will sell in time for me to buy a new house, bigger, posher etc etc etc,

    Watching my cable tv, on 32" Lowe TV which was nearly a grand, watching UK History.

    And got smacked in the eyes by a British Red Cross appeal.

    Dunno why it got to me so hard....but it did. I was fretting about my house not selling, and a kid had just stood on a land mine and blown his leg off.

    So, along with the RSPCA who have had a monthly payment from me for over a decade, the British Red Cross get a fiver per month too now.

    Dont matter how bad it is....if you are sat in front of a PC, it means you are ont homeless.

    Think about it.

    But dont let it ruin ya day...do summit tho...anything

    Cheers peeps

    grr charities.

    i dont mind giving to charities at all, thinks like the Air Ambulance, where ALL the money goes to the air ambulance, but at school we used to give to cafod and massive chunks were taken out.

    I'll quite happily to donate to charities that don't try to pile on the grief trip in their advertising. I know that things are bad for the people they're advertising for, but trying to make people feel bad about how good they've got it is immoral, imo.

    I do the NSPCC and Comic Relief... is it a conscience salver? Dunno...

    They're two charities that I trust ALL of my money goes towards helping though.
