What's that? 50% of profits go to UNICEF?
That's really awesome!
Huh? That's really awesome!
I know, I know...I'm speaking out of line and guilt tripping private enterprise is not the done thing. Apologies.
I still don't see how kids sizes means an automatic donation to charity should be given, I just don't. A charity shirt is a very cool idea, assuming that we should do it simply because the shirts are for smaller folk is less so.
PH does lots for charity, as I hope you know, but I really don't see your point. To suggest we are being 'corporate' because we aren't donating profits (or part of) from this range is quite extraordinary.
Can we just agree to disagree here?

I was just mildly suggesting that a charitable gesture wouldn't have gone amiss regarding the sale of children's t-shirts. Like, say a small offering to Great Ormond Street Hospital for Christmas pressies or something similar. Seemed like a no brainer to me, you'd sell more t-shirts and there's a little contribution to a good cause at the end of it. A win win if there ever was one and hardly an outlandish suggestion as almost all businesses relating to children do something like this at some point.

It just seemed to me you had a bit of a snotty tone from the get go, for no apparent reason. You see the other suggestions for stuff, light hearted, and constructive, that is probably the best way to go about it, rather than posting what you did, with a I know, I know...I'm speaking out of line and guilt tripping private enterprise is not the done thing.

You're right, that rolling eyes smiley was an error and I honestly didn't think. I suspect I was in a mood after spending too many hours watching rolling news channels! attached. Just sayin, or whatever folks say nowadays.

No, I agree. I think I was in a Ewan McGregor type frame of mind at the time, planning a jaunt around the world with a bag full of vaccines for Unicef!

Funnily enough there's a PH charity appeal currently running here that will benefit all, young and old alike (in fact anyone who might be unfortunate enough to find themselves in hospital needing blood supplies urgently).And there's not even a need to buy a T shirt.
Simply go here or text "SERV60 £10" to 70070.
