Heartland Aid Appeal
Posted: 23 Mar 2005, 20:18
Right, Mischief and Discord hats off …
Isn’t it great that everyone appreciates the work that Quiff Boy, aka BARRY BRIGGS in real life, does? Isn’t it great that we keep coming back for more? Isn’t this a cool place to visit and hang out? It gets me through the work day and sometimes the nights too, if I’m perfectly honest.
All due to the work of Barry.
But how many of you know that he runs this site for fun and enjoyment. Very admirable qualities in anyone.
But how many of you know that this costs him money? His own money. Yep, from his own wallet.
Isn’t it time we said “Thank You� in a much more tangible way.
Yes, it’s Barry’s baby. His Heartland. But it’s also My Heartland …and Your Heartland.
I’ve roughly calculated and working on memory from the early days when I joined, that if every regular HLer donated a minimum £10 (or local currency equivalent), Barry won’t be spending his own money for the next two years.
That to me, is a big Thank You from us, for what he does.
FAQ: How do I give Heartland my money?
Paypal – Every theme has a PP button after you’ve logged in and before you click on ‘view last posts’. If you have a paypal account that works, do it. Now.
Cheque – Drawn on a UK bank account made payable to ‘BARRY BRIGGS’ but PM me for his address as it won’t be published on a public forum.
UK Cash/Postal Order – Again PM for his address.
Overseas/Paypal doesn’t work? – Send paper money with pictures of local historical figures, architecture and animals. Imagine his joy looking at all the ‘funny’ bank notes. Then he can wander down to his local money launderer and convert it all in one go. PM for address.
None of the above - Send him your mint copy of Damage Done and he'll sell it on ebay. All proceeds going to HL.
Obviously, anyone who’s in the PRWY and knows Barry locally, can make their own arrangements. But please, give something next time you see him.
This will be a big Thank You to Quiff Boy.
Especially as this is totally unsolicited from him and he has no idea that I’m posting this.
Go on. You know you really, really want to.
Thank you.
PS: Can another Mod with powers make this ‘sticky’ please ..? Ta.
