    Yeah, but what quality is the "gold" ring?

    If you pawned a nine carat gold ring, you'd be lucky to get a tenner.

    I was only pointing out what rachie meant. And it does have some merit, it is something that you would take into account while donating.

    I think that was the point rachie was making.

    Oh fuck off. You really haven't a fucking clue have you? Who gave you the right to judge what people can and can't wear? So someone should sell all their wordly posessions before they're worthy of help?
    Call yourself a fucking Christian? Hypocrite. :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Are you homeless?

    Its so easy to judge from your comfortable little middle class life. You need to grow up and get real. :mad: :mad: :mad:

    It has no fucking merit at all. People like you piss me off. Try living on the streets and then you can tell me all about it. :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Why don't you talk to the person who ACTUALLY said it then? Opposed to taking it out on me, not that you have ANY right to judge what opinions someone else holds.

    You adopted the viewpoint also though. Leaving him completley able to criticise the view.

    OK, maybe a bit of an apology is in order. But you have expressed sympathy with her point of view. Maybe if you knew what it was like to be homeless you wouldn't be so quick to judge.

    Age Concern apparently :lol:

    If they kept it if they knew it was a mistake then shame on them, if they banked it in good faith fair enough. Then again, he obviously didn't take the trouble of washing the top before handing it over so it's his own fault...

    The guy acted in good faith and they lied to him and kept it, thats outrageous behaviour from a charity.
