At least the lad is being honest.
A pal of mine was strolling through street in London when some tramp asked
Him for some change for a cup of tea. My pal said I suspect you will just spend
This on drink.
As a matter of fact I would be buying booze said the tramp,fair enough here is a
Fiver.

Your comment just reeks of jealousy.

Ben does work and is working for his money. He’s just working for it in a way that is stigmatised by the likes of you. He’s also given loads of hours to the local community as a volunteer. Just because that’s not valued in money terns it doesn’t give you the right to assume superiority over this guy and every other person in his position.

Nah just a well paid job for not alot of days In fact only Monday and Tuesday to do next week then 12 days off and a junior rugby jaunt down to Perpignan for 5 days,

Just think Homer Simpson :-p

I like your style sir.

I can't believe I have read 5 pages of this and no-one has crow-barred a 'brazilian' joke in yet.

I would have thought Mr Plough would have been one of the first choices on your list?

That name again is mr plow. Classic

Ah yes, Mr Plow. I'm sure everyone has their favourites. I knew I'd have missed some good ones

Once upon a time I'd just finished school and lived with my parents. Not long after that I actually went to Peru for some charity work. I paid for the trip by working in a minimum wage job until I had enough. I did raise some money through sponsorship and events, but I paid my air fare and accomodation cost, so every penny of that went to charity.

Nobody except me paid to do up my house either. When I was his age I didn't have a house to do up.

Quite how asking the world to give you hand outs is the route to more independence is a bit lost on me.

you work and save so in damo's world that makes you a scrounger

so someone does charity work and wants to become a charity in return. Thought the whole point of charity work was a selfless act with no financial reward? Not knocking the lad for the work he's done but if ppl start funding trips for everybody who does charity work it'll be ridiculous in the end.

I have raised a considerable sum for XIII heroes (a Rugby League charity for players who have been seriously injured while playing this great sport) with events organised through LS16 Rhinos.

I would like a new spray job for my bike - PM me for donation details.
