Just watching Comic Relief tonight fills me with joy, and sadness. The sketches and comedy which fill the show is first rate, yet the amount of shitty things that go on in this world and are highlighted in the show are truly tragic.

Watching the videos of so many people (especially children) suffer such ridiculous hardships is unbearable. As a parent, watching the videos simply brings you to tears.

You may not have kids, you may not be that charitable, but seriously… £5 (GBP) buys a mosquito net which can SAVE A CHILD’S LIFE. £250 (GBP) can send a child to school for A WHOLE YEAR.

This is a no brainer. It’s the price of a couple of pits of beer (OK, the price of 1 pint in London ;-) ) Just spend 3 minutes and make a donation.
