Happy birthday to me

oodboo

Probably flogging a dead horse posting this here but what the hell.

I'm turning 35 next week and instead of asking for shiney bike bits Im asking everyone to donate a small amount to Percy Hedley. Last year we raised £75 and I think we can beat that. Donating is easy via my Just Giving page or by text, send BDAY75 £1 to 70070 to donate £1, or more if you want.

When cooldad and I were lads we didn't used to go begging for money on the internet...

T'is the new way, warmer than begging on the streets.

It's one thing to come on here and say I'm doing _____ for charity, please sponsor me. But it's another thing altogether to say "Hey internet strangers, instead of buying me a birthday present this year, donate some money to this thing".

It's a bit cheeky, even for the crud, and for that reason, I'm out.

Fair enough, how about I don't bother shaving for a month, would you give some money for that?

bartimaeus

Maybe he's doing sponsored ageing? I'm in for 1p a year if he manages another 100.

Happy birthday for next week, I bought you a "pint".

TBF it is a worthy cause. So I might have to reconsider.

Reconsidering.

Reconsidering.

It's a cause close to my heart as well. My oldest son had a difficult birth and is severly disabled as a result. Percy Hedley have been there for us and the weekly class he has been attending there since he was 3 months old has brought him on a lot. We are currently in the process of going to tribunal to see if we can get the LEA to pay to send him there for school.
Here's a promotional video the BBC helped them make:

Now you see, if you'd juist said that to start off with I'd have just bIoody done it.

Now done anyway.

How does that work with the text like? does it just charge me a quid for the text or something?

cat_with_no_tail

ffs, it failed anyway

cat_with_no_tail

Never mind, did it though the linky instead. I assume I can't get the text thingy with me technically speaking not having a UK mobile #
