Is it just me, or are others fed up with the quantity of begging
adverts on TV? If I resonded to all of the, I reckon it would cost me
over 2K pounds a year. I do wonder how much it costs to make the
advert and screen it and fear that most of the doantion is wasted. I
have a couple of charities I support each year, and they don't spend
a penny on TV. What do others think?

most charities are just a money making fiddles and jobs for those who
run them...peanuts go to the needy .....


Chidren in need is the only charity that I donate to, simply because
*all* of the dosh goes to help the kiddies. Oh and the once a year
Poppy.

The war ended ages ago.

but the lives of those who fought have not.

Actually most have.
