Why is it ridiculous?

because I'm getting married, not a charity.
you may have missed it, but I am a horrible and self-centred bastard

went through london to get to my bro's place rather than round the m25 which led through some of the more salubrious parts. much more enjoyable trip.

That happened to a mate of mine several years ago.
It was his 30th birthday and his mum had been asking him what he'd like as a birthday gift, I can't remember what he asked for (probably something guitar related), but he made a specific request.

Imagine his surprise when, come the big day, his mum didn't get him something musical, but wrote in his birthday card that 'thanks to you, 30 kids in *insert name of loser country* will be having lunch for a week'.

What a birthday that was for him.

I'd love that.

You want lunch for 30 people?
That's just greedy.
