Seems like a good idea !

How much of the £10 you give will actually be used to buy seeds?
£1? £2?

And how much will be used for a new BMW or computer for the MD of Save
the children?


Exactly :-((

Saw a 'wonderful' example of how money was wasted at the RNLI and have never
subscribed since and on talking about it, was given even more examples. Such
as the Inflatable Repair Station at East Cowes HAD to spend their property
maintenance budget quickly for a certain year or it would not be allocated
the next year. So they re painted the buildings, even though they did not
need it.

If you DO wish to subscribe the RNLI, make it a personal donation for a
certain piece of equipment at a lifeboat station itself :-)) Been there,
done that, got the RNLI sticker :-))
