Sometimes I get peeved with
the shear number of charitable requests at work. I work in a huge department 250 staff, plus another 200 or so people who come in for 1 day a week, so there's normally several charity things going on at any one time - yet if you fail to pay up people look at you like you're some scrooge type.
I don't mind the ones like this so much, but the ones that are "pay up for me to have a free holiday cycling the great wall of china or walking in Nepal" etc REALLY piss me off - esp when theres a couple of people at work who do this every year. A free holiday and only a small amount actually goes to the cause...
rant over. sorry.

Totally agree
hence the non aggressive nature of the original post. I put it up for two reasons. First because it's the first time I've played around with the new camera and it's home-bodged bracket, and second on the off-chance that somebody might feel inclined to donate. I don't really mind if anyone does or doesn't (although I'm grateful if they do!!) it was just a bit of fun for a good cause and a nice day out for all involved, and it didn't cost anyone (other than me) a penny.
