General / Off-Topic Raising Money for Special Effect
- Thread starter Michael Brookes
- Start date
Dear Michael
At first I thought this may have been taking place at the Christchurch in Dorset, as that is about 2 miles from my house, so I would have gladly come along to heckle in person and congratulate you on doing a wonderful thing to raise money for a fantastic cause ... however, on a quick online check I realise you mean t he one near to Peterborough ... as much as I liked the idea of heckling, I fear I will just go to your justgiving page instead to make my support genuine!
So, thank you for exciting then disappointing me, but I don't really mean that like some nutcase lol! In all seriousness mate, great idea, and good luck with the shearing! I imagine you will have a horribly cold head afterwards as you are doing it mid-November as well - I removed my hillbilly beard once at that time of year, and it was awful! So maybe you should do a follow-up crowd-funder for a bunch of hats with MB on them as monograms?!
Great job again, and let us know how it goes of course! I also think you should make that photo your forum avatar for the week before the event, just out of principle
Donation on the way, take it easy MB,
The Hat
PS: Only just noticed that Steve also suggested a hat for you too!!
PPS: I have made a link to this for the TeaBaggers as I think they will avidly support you on this too MB - I hope you don't mind being linked with TeaBaggers, but I am sure you won't I will expect you to get quite a few donations from them mate

Shave them both and have Brookes' beard turned into a wig for Ed.
It will come back - stronger than ever before

Sounds like an Obi-Wan moment.
If you shave me now, I shall become more magnificent than you can imagine.

I hope so because, as of typing this, the total is £1,319 - this CG is 87% of the way to Tier 2....
+1 for Michael. A sacrifice at the level of the cause. And do not forget to update your Commander in ED
