dnks34 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 I am glad to read that I am not the only one who gets very anoid with the constant tv adverts....I wish there was an opt out as a soon as one comes on in my house I hit the mute button. Call me heartless but i give where I can locally and I am sick to death of being constantly bombarded with these adverts :-( 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a family member born with a heart condition and so since she was born we have always supported the British Heart Foundation. In a recent charity bag collection they had so much stuff that the local shop could not cope and so they took it all to the dump by the transit van load, still in the Heart Foundation bags, unopened, just as they came off your doorsteps. And they were classed as trade waste so had to go on the weighbridge and pay!! We were disgusted with them. Even if they had sent the clothes as rags they'd have got 50p a kilo for them... How do I know this? The waste site manager is a customer of ours. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MauriceMynah Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 I like the Red Cross's style. " Just leave us 1% of your estate in your will " Yeah right, like hell I will! I seem to be with the majority here, Air ambulance, 'RNLI and Caister' and just a bit to Dogs Trust. Any left over I leave to that well known charity KMMAAGHBC. For the very few uninitiated amongst us that is... Keep Mauriuce Mynah Afloat And Get His Boat Cleaned. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Labrador Posted December 20, 2015 Author Share Posted December 20, 2015 Very good cause MM, where are your collection boxes sited?
