...and would you like to donate Â£1 to charity?

I'm a bit dubious about charities at the best of times, mainly since I was staying next to the *charity name removed* offices at Milton Keynes and saw the type of cars that "charity workers" drive.

If I didn't think that a not inconsiderable amount of all those "only a pound"'s were going to buy and fuel some monster of a sports saloon, not forgetting all the extra layers of management that charities can afford to have as they don't pay for any of it, I may be more interested.

As it is I would rather do my research and give to causes I not only have a belief in but some knowledge of how they are run.

*Thought I better remove the name in case their highly paid team of lawyers is on the ball
