It's not about trying to make them feel guilty (Although the adverts try to) it's about making them aware.

Problem of making them aware is as they will probably have no way of giving £3 a month so its over to the parents. As the children become more "aware" as they get older the suffering they see has less and less impact on them as they become hardened to seeing it. So the problems of charities intensifies. There is an attitude around just now that "it doesn't matter have much you give it makes no difference" just look at the situation of famine in the Sudan. How many times have we been here before. No let kids be kids and get on with their childhood.
Land Rover main stealers who spend time looking for work on your car instead of getting on with doing the work it is in there for......!! Then ringing me to say the car will not be ready as promised despite saying it would 30mins before, when they were chasing me to authorise the extra work
Why anyone would be stupid enough to pay £34 for a rear wiper blade is beyond me!! ------------------------------

EBAY
Not anything to do with the forum, or anyone from here, but I've been selling some stuff for my son, who wants to raise money to go on holiday. Some with zero history outbid everyone else, won the auction. Failed to contact me for a week after the auction end, I raised a non-payment case, then he contacts me to say he's gone on holiday and doesn't want to pay until he gets back in 2 weeks!!
What a Kernawk!

Bell ends who pull into the overtaking lane on dual carriageways and tootle along well under the speed limit.And the reason they are in that lane is because they want to turn right 4 fekin miles away Its not the height of the fall but the sudden stop at the bottom that hurts!!

Useless GP practice! They have been moaning to me for ages about coming in for my overdue blood test pain in the as it means time of work.
So I phone up to get an appointment with the Nurse, what for the receptionist asks, bloods I say, OK 10:50 Friday was the reply. Turns up today 10 minutes early, check myself in on the touch screen, which says the nurse is only running 1 minute behind, thought that makes a change. 30 minutes late I get called in, no apology. The nurse asks what can she do for me, I point out you are the ones moaning about my overdue thyroid function test! Oh bloods she said that's a problem, the blood van comes at 10:30 and we cant store it over the weekend. Its a good job she wasn't doing my blood pressure!==================================

That would have definitely annoy me and my blood pressure is always sky high on the rare occasions I go to the GP, so I wouldn't have needed any extra help!Andy

eBay has got worse and worse for non-payment over last couple of years.
People always use to pay up but now its almost 50% of my auctions they just don't pay and it takes days to raise a non-payment claim with the only action been on me to start from scratch again.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Idiots who pull out on you then get aggressive when you remind them you're there with a blast of the horn.... Why swear and gesture when you're in the wrong?!
Happened to me earlier - a VW golf with two highly intelligent folk got very agressive after they decided to pull out across me on a roundabout, only to slow down because the direction they was going had a red light!!! One of them tried to spit at my car (despite me being over 10m away by this point!)
