Subject: RE: BS: Arms dealers in need
I entered two competitions in 2005 for tickets for Make Poverty History at the Eden Project, the day they did The Big Thing in Hyde Park - and won two tickets in both. Mrs Steve and I used two of them and my daughter and her mate used the other two. It was an amazing event, never to be forgotten. I did have to endure about an hour sitting next to Esther bleedin' Rantzen...

Unfortunately, a bunch of complete twats blew London up a few days later. A couple of weeks after that, Jean Charles de Menezes was gunned down by a twat who'd been instructed by other twats. It was a bad time, and we never did make poverty history. I still have my one-quid wristband.
