… And there’s nothing you can do about it!
Well, the mods could ban me but I hope they won’t
Going to a community fundraising thing that some of my friends are involved with running. It’s a really cool concept, you pay a fiver to get in and be fed vegan soup and then it’s basically sitting in a church hall listening to pitches from 3 local charities, voting for your favourite to get the door money at the end. Always leave feeling good and inspired by/about all the people /groups out there working hard to make a difference in our town/the world.
It’s really hot though and I quite fancy a cold glass of wine. Can I have a cheeky couple before heading out?
Yeah m9, it’s fine, you’re only sitting down for two hours in a hall.
No

Have a wonderful evening, friends and casual acquaintances
I’m currently on a train into that there London to meet an ATD for drinks and dinner. Must remember to be careful, though - otherwise tomorrow morning’s meeting might hurt.
ah I just assumed that’s all bullshit and they just give it to whoever they feel like/whoever gives tesco $$$. Couldn’t imagine somebody sitting there having to count every counter
Nah it’s genuine (if slightly, ahem, tokenistic) - our Foodbank got a couple of grand from it a few months ago. You have to apply to be considered but the charities seem to be genuinely local in most cases
Gonna have dinner (possibly those cauliflower masala veggie sausages with roasted veg and new pots) and watch the TdF highlights when kiddo has gone bed
