Red Nose Day

If ever there was a worthwhile cause to donate to, then this one is it.  Anyone who lives in the UK will know what I'm talking about.  I have just watched one of the most moving pieces of film I have ever seen.  The poem that accompanied it (as spikesdeb has said) was so hauntingly sad that it had me practically sobbing.

I know that feeling of 'If ....'

If my daughter had been born in Africa the chances are that she wouldn't have been - and we'd both be dead now. As it is she has spent the whole day living as an opera, and singing her every word, and has raised £20+ - I am very proud of her!

Every single film had me crying my eyes out! /hormonal pregnant woman

The little 3-year old girl who had been her mother's main carer? And also had HIV? My youngest is 3 and I the thought of her carrying such a heavy burden...

Also I love our comedians to itty bitty pieces and wish I could have little miniatures of them all! Just imagine a tiny little Stephen Fry spouting knowledge everywhere!
