Charity begins at home

In line with Comic Relief today, I have been thinking about how easy it really is to raise vast amounts of money. If everyone takes part.

Do you know that if everybody in the United Kingdom donated just 1 pound to Comic Relief, they could raise £60,609,153*.

Just 1 pound each....



*based on July 2006 population statistics

Hi There! I like your comment about everyone putting a pound into Comic Relief - yes it would be marvellous! If anyone is still interested in giving to Comic Relief there is a book with entries from British Bloggers - it's great, I bought a copy myself and you can buy it at -

Welcome Ginger! Nice to see you here. I had heard about the book, and may well invest in it myself. Come pay day!
