Maybe I'm just hormonal - but it makes me well up everytime I see it.

I've just signed up to a monthly DD

Don't feel too bad cailin maith, you (and all of us actually) have been contributing for years to this charity and plenty of others already.

Thanks for the advice!

Think nothing of it. You can't be too careful these days!

Well I'm afraid I just don't buy it. I've seen him before someplace, and he was rushing around like a two-tear-old waving a staff about his head and smiting goblins. No way does he have arthritis, it sounds like he is just too lazy to do a bit of wallpapering if you ask me. And one minute he is bleating on about the kids living miles away, then the next he claims not to have any?? Nah!! Something just doesn't stack up!!! Probably some Ponzi scheme or other. Steer well clear CM!

Are we talking about the Ian McKellen one here?

Yep

[cailin maith]

I hope you ticked the box that tells them not to pass your details on. I didn't & I get snowed under every day

Oh tulip - I thought it said don't tick the box for that. Arse

Ever heard of "The Internet"?

Ever heard of "Being a lazy bastard?"

Is this the one where Spod shuffles in smiles at the camera, gives a little cheeky wink and then breaks wind loudly followed by the commentary

'If only he had the money for toilet roll, he'd be able to wear light coloured trousers'

God Almighty, do you ever get sick of being an asshole? I'm just asking like, cos I've never seen you not be one?

[cailin maith]

Suggestion: cancel the DD and add the same amount to your pension contributions.

Then I'd feel even more guilty
