OK I went into Manchester and bought 3 big issues which cost £3 <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif"&gt; and 2 badges off this "victim against crime" charity which cost £2 each <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif"&gt; Am I a mug or what? <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif"&gt;

    Why did you buy 3 big issues?! And two badges...lol you're too kind for your own good. Sometimes I buy Big Issues but i only buy one, and if someone says to me will I buy one again I just say I've already bought one today thanks. Thats all you have to say! hehe

    Oh yeah, the other day right this man was selling these magazines to raise money for a cancer charity and he stopped us and showed us all through the magazines and my mates both bought one, but I didnt because I was soooo skint, (i've been paid now!) and I hardly had enough money to buy my dinner, and when we were walking off the man gave me a right dirty look cos I hadnt bought one! I usually would just that i was skint!

    isnt 3 x 3 = 9, and 2 x 2 = 4? 9 + 4 = £13 and not 7???!

    i know what im getting you for your bday now mark, a calculator! <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;

    youre far too generous, but its definitely a good thing, my mum was warning me against mean men today actually lol

    ive never bought a big issue in my life. or given much to buskers for that matter either. its not that im against the homeless or against charity or giving money or anything coz im not (even though half the time i dont have much myself and i kinda need it! okay so not as much as some people would..). ive just been brought up NOT to i guess, my dad always makes a joke out of stuff like this and is totally anti-charities and i guess it may have rubbed off on me <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif"&gt; as i dont give much money now. you should have seen what he was like when i ticked the box to donate organs on my provisional drivers license... not a pleasant experience.

    If you don't know where you're going, you'll probably end up somewhere else.

    No 3 x 1 = 3, and 2 x 2 = 4, then 3 + 4 = 7 <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/biggrin.gif"&gt; I think you need the calculator my dear <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/biggrin.gif"&gt;

    i totally know what u mean. Y'know, sum charities they always support - poppy appeal, NSPCC etc, but i don't think my mum or dad would ever buy a big issue - 4 sum reason they don't think it's rite to giv money to homeless ppl, probably oz they assume they all use it on drink and/or drugs which is really unfair. So i always give to charities like poppy appeal and NSPCC, but i have never bought a big issue i don't think. Shows how much ur parents rub off on u. I wish they didn't tho. I'm gonna buy a big issue next time i see sum1 sellin them <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;

    And Mark - yes u are a mug!

    Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road. Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go.
