Sold the 'ginger one' a car some years ago.Seemed a decent bloke!

Coz he's a lucky fucker who can probably talk his way into anything. A bit like some of the power merchants in this biz !

Wonder why the runners used to spit in his tea....

Thats supposed to be funny or what? Sound like a bunch of jealous spiteful cunts to me

I assumed it did if you said so Reg but I cant stand hearing people doing shit like that because the guy is successful so they spit in his tea????

They wouldnt find it very funny if they got punched in their spiteful little faces would they?

Thats the sort of pathetic mentality among small minded people who begrudge others of their success

I fucking like Chris Evans even more now and dont blame him one iota for being cocky and arrogant. I can see why now.

You said,

"Charities are a nasty rather ruthless kind of business. ..
There are charities like hospices and homeless organisations, who do an incredible job and are genuine non-profit organisations"

I know what you are on about, but don't you think that by starting off with the above blanket sentence, your message appears a tad contradictory?

It is also worth pointing out that "genuine non-profit organisations" are not prevented from paying their staff a salary of their choice. I also suspect that the charities that "don't advertise" which you describe as one of the characteristics of a good charity, would not generate much, if anything, in the way of funds? Advertising is done by all charities to a certain extent if they intend to be around even if it is just having a second hand clothes shop with the name of the charity up above.

I have never come across a charity which didn't have some details about who they are, what they do, who benefits etc. together with a plea for funds. Presumably you would describe this as "manipulating the public into giving them money". I dont see how any charity can survive without a certain amount of manipulation.
