Everyone please


Whether your blood is boling or not we, everyone, need to keep the debate on substantive issues and refrain from personal attacks, jibes and causing this threat to spin out of control

There are serious issues here that should be addressed, cloaking them in personal vitriol helps no one.

Thank you

I think it is now time to lock this thread, and ban any talk of P4C on this forum.

It is obviously a topic that certain people have very strong feelings about - why continue to argue?

One more point, then I must go to bed.

I cannot see why the second years figures will only be 30p in the pound, for this reason :

The first year will involve alot of legal and professional fees - these can be very expensive.

The second year would not have these expenses, so the ratio of donations/money given to good causes should be better.

Maybe Tony got the wrong end of the stick? I dont know, but would be VERY suprised to see the 2nd year the same as the first.

Again, I am not voicing any personal opinion I have, just trying to give the benefit of my knowledge.

Hi Paul,

I am sorry to say that the quoted (& estimated) figure of £0.30 in the £1 for Year Two IS correct, & will be confirmed by Jagster & Tony Banbury if you wish to contact them direct. Believe me, every word I type on this thread is double & triple checked for accuracy! If only I DID have the wrong end of the stick! Feel free to validate my figures with Andy (blondeite The Jagster) or Tony Banbury.

The reasons for the disappointing % in Year Two was accurately described by James (Flushy) in a Post two or three after yours. Lower revenues were the cause, & with fixed costs remaining "as was" the result was, inevitably, the lower %.

Sorry TK, didnt mean to suggest you were lying or misquoting figures

Apology not necessary Paul, & I was certainly not suggesting you were calling me a liar. But i wanted to stress, that the figures I quoted were accurate, based on what two Trustees told me last night, & that, naturally, I am, being extremely careful with my choice of words on this thread.

We are cool, Paul. Can I have one of Charmaine's mince pies now, please? In the bath, that is.

As do I russ.

But there comes a time when it is obvious the two sides will not agree and things just get out of hand.

I also think most people have had their say.

And that damage (rightly or wrongly) has been done.

trace how can u have a few pops at me, get me wound up then tell me to take a chill pill. you have seen first hand how hard it is to get me to lose my temper but this issue has got my blood boiling. I can walk away from most things but not something concerning kids and charity.

answer a simple couple of questions trace.
do you think the treatment of maureen and reece has been fair?
do you think if i go to a P4C event that if I have 40 rebuys at £10 a time only £60 actually reached good causes?

simple questions trace seeing as you are one of the main defenders.

Russ Im mainly asking you to take a chill pill before you have a sodding coronary, and some of your comments are getting a tad nasty.  There's no need.

Of course my sympathies go out to Maureen, Stacey and Reece, but at the same time this could have be handled so much differently!  I have heard two side of the story and all is not as plain as you seem to think it is!  << Don't try to draw me on that 'cos it will fall on deaf ears!

As has been stated previously this is a new Charity, overheads have been high, given chance everything will settle down and more will go to the causes. 

I do volunteer work for the Charity - I do what I can when I can and I do it happily and freely, I defend this, not 'cos Ang and Davey are my mates, because I love and approve of what they do!

My apologies if this post doesn't answer your questions or make sense, but I am in the office on my own and it's a little chaotic to say the least.

In the short term lets wish Reece, and any other children in the same situation a Very Happy Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!

A fool who has no knowledge?

I suggest you watch who you are calling a fool.

In my opinion you are now threatening me.  I am not prepared to accept that.  I understand you live quite close to me, and will be happy to meet you face-to-face to discuss this further.

PM me to sort it, but please do not hide behind this forum.

I will be offline for the next hour or two - I gotta job now, you know! (Tell you the truth - guaranteed - I am due, in 5 minutes, in the Make-Up Depaetment......trust me, it's true! I may be a while in there).

Look, I am not prepared to "ban discussion of P4C" on blonde, as there is still much to discuss.

Lock the thread? We rarely do that, & I'm totally against it. However, if the thread spirals out of control this afternoon, the Mods have the power to Lock the thread for an hour or two if they feel it apropriate, & they will have my full backing.

But let's not descend to that, it ain't necessary, let's move forward, please. Good progress HAS been made, & that's all down to open discussion on this Forum, proving "it's good to talk". So let's keep talking, please. blonde style, that is.

Not bad - considering the show isn't until Friday..........

That job must pay good too - not many miracle workers left nowadays!! Grin

I dont hide behind nothing and the tone of your post is far more threatening than mine. You want to meet thats fine but dont be expecting it to be pleasant as I see your post above as nothing more than a veiled threat/challenge. I had gone away to calm down and come back to this?
