Strewth, the modern method of begging it seems.
Take them to the park with a picnic, it's about quality time together, not ruddy Donald Duck.

King Gizzard 04-03-2017 10:57 PM

Doesn't hurt to try

Well she didn't hide her daughter's under the bed and pretend they'd done a Madeleine McCann, so for that we should be thankful.

As they haven't actually been convicted of anything such inflammatory statements are pure supposition.

If it ever emerges that Indeed they had nothing to do with their daugher's disappearance a lot of people are not going to look very good for the type of remarks they have made.

Cherie 05-03-2017 08:23 AM

Maybe Ant and Dec will give her seats on the plane!

Vicky. 05-03-2017 09:30 AM

I don't really see the issue with this, nor why she is getting so much hate. People raise for boob jobs and all sorts on there, I don't see the difference except that this was going to benefit her kids instead of just her ego :shrug:

I believe you might have read that wrong. It appears to be about Karen Matthews and her plot to raise cash

Kizzy 05-03-2017 09:47 AM

It is cheeky, if you want a nice holiday sacrifice and save like the rest of us.

I would argue that thats the same for plastic surgery and such though, but there seems to be no mass kick off about the 20th boob/nose job operation funding that pops up on there every month. Nor the 'I want to travel the world after leaving uni' ones :S

It should be used for only important things, I agree on that, Such as (essential) medical treatments. But I really don't see what this woman has done wrong given half the fund raisers on there

Kizzy 05-03-2017 10:32 AM

True Vicky, life or death or forget it :laugh:

I do Vicky
Crowd funding can be used for anything
but be wise and make it valid.


I feel Sorry for her Daughters
who must have thought - what a great mum?
Its good their faces are hidden
on the photo.


A example of Proper Crowd Funding
is a Music Star Compact Disc
paid for by all the fans ($20 each)
thats alot of names that
get printed as a thank you on the CD booklet.
Lalah Hathaway (soul singer ) did just that
it worked very well.

It was a reference to Karen Matthews you bloody fool.

Shaun 05-03-2017 03:09 PM

A tad audacious but can't knock a girl for trying. It's not as if she was conning anyone :shrug:
