Re: Children in need
I have to be bluntly honest in my opinion here, I thought it was a great idea when it first came out, but like everything else that starts off with the best intentions, the greed set in, it has became a sort of business expecting the yields from the good natured public to increase every year regardless of their own personal hardships, the money donated and the event is now taken for granted and that is a bad thing in any charity. Then the final financial frenzy, the counting of the money, How much! how much!, thoughts of Scrooge flash through my mind, I wonder how much goes on 'Administration', the whole thing makes me sick now and I never look at it anymore, I'd sooner give a fiver to a beggar on the street, at least I know he's getting the fiver.Re: Children in need
I've been watching The One Show this week-and The rickshaw team,these young people are putting their heart and sole into trying to raise money for less fortunate children than themselves, a young man who has no hands , a Down syndrome girl who fell off but after got back on again . I text to TEAM 70705 my £5 donation I thought it was the least I could do .And yes I do watch most of it on Friday.
