This is more for the answers thread, but seeing as we're on the topic atm of charities...

Why do more and more charities only accept* donations by Direct Debit, instead of cash? Still see plenty of penny pots in shops, but a marked decrease in cash collecting on the street?

  • when stopped in the street by charity workers, at least.
After I've politely listened to them for as long as I can, I invariably say "sorry would donate with no attachments in cash, but I don't 'do' DDs for charity."

fkwits in airports again!

The dopey woman in front of me got to the barrier where you scan your boarding pass before security last night and then stopped to rummage in her bag for her phone to get her boarding pass, while blocking one of the two available scanners.

I think charities, specifically charity shops, are wonderful.

Ladies buy brand new clothes by Per Una, New Look, Red Herring, Desigual, and the like, wear them once or twice, donate them to charity, and then I come along and buy them for a 10th of the price they were new. thumbup

The charity gets a little money, I get a bargain, and the ladies who originally bought the clothes new get a nice warm feeling.

It's not just airports any kind of travel seems to bring the feckwits out in droves.

Boarding the Eurostar earlier today and some old bag decides the best place to stop was right at the bottom of a packed escalator so no one could get past her.

Another blocked the door to the carriage with their 17 suitcases and slowly loaded them one by one. It's like they are deliberately trying to find bad block the worst chokepoints possible.

Finally the person sitting next to me reeks and won't sit still. And he's an iTard.
