    Red Nose Day

    Who's giving some of their hard-earned?

    Just remember, a donation of £5 can held a disabled African tell the difference between his girlfriend and an armed house invader.

    It's up to you all to make a difference.

        I found the bit about the little kid dying of tetanus just side-splitting.

        So funny I couldn't help but donate what I earned today.

            Sometimes it doesn't hurt to be reminded that we're extremely lucky.

                I did a live gig on telly for Children in Need with lots of other name bands and great fun it was (what a party afterwards).

                Three months later I got a cheque from the Beeb for £900 for the two live performances, go figure.

                    When terry Wigan got in the press a couple of years back regarding being paid for children in Need the bbc argument was that they would have paid to produce program's either way so they were happy to pay performers to appear.
