Wasn't that lovely of Josie to pay for some legs for Steve and give £20,000 to charity?

Sammi_Who · 25-08-2010, 06:33 AM

I think it was, yeah

The charity, not Steve's legs.

Its a nice offer from Josie, but i dont think Steve will/should take her up on it. For a number of reasons, mainly because he's always been proud of his charity work and the funds he's raised for them. I dont think he'll struggle after all this publicity to raise the money for them himself with a little patience. And its such a large amount of her winnings, thinking about the Cancer charity she wants to help as well.

I'm not that clued up on what Steve's legs situation is, but ive heard he has a fairly good set. And is merely looking for an upgrade. I dont know, but my point remains...he can do it himself. He did afterall raise the money for current hi tec one. I dont see Steve allowing her to give him £30,000 anyway...he seems quite a proud man.

Josie deserves to win UBB for giving away such a proportion of her winnings especially since she's not obviously well off herself anyway plus she's giving John a grand - although I don't think he'll accept it - and John Joe a grand too.

What a genuine, kind-hearted girl. I hope all John James and Sammy's fans get behind her now.

Sammi_Who · 25-08-2010, 06:54 AM

Nah she doesnt deserve to win UBB for giving away such a large proportion of her winnings. Even though its one of the most selfless acts ive seen a HM do since Craig BB1!

She deserves it because she's a genuine, kind hearted beautiful randy mare! Her personality even dwarfs Brian D's imo.

And.. I voted for her last night! I think Sam/JJ fans will back Jooose!

didn't the finalists also agree to buy some stupid expensive trainers as well. If she ain't very careful she will give all her money away.

I thought it was amazing, the Lord loves a cheerful giver! Steve's one leg is on loan I think, the government should be paying for that though, it's a disgrace that they aren't.

MTVN · 25-08-2010, 10:22 AM

I agree, fair play to her. I never thought she would dedicate a fifth of her winnings to charity and pay for Steve's legs as well

Out of interest, does anyone know how much the legs would cost?

Livia · 25-08-2010, 10:26 AM

I think it was very generous of her. Especially as she didn't make a big thing of it before she won, she waited till afterwards then said what she was going to do. It was very generous of her.

How very true.

Julie10 · 25-08-2010, 10:29 AM

The legs are 30,000. She said she will give him the money if he doesn't get help paying for the legs. I think out of the remaining hms she is the only one that would have given genuinely from the heart and not make a big thing about it. Well done Josie although she wasn't a favourite of mine.

AngelChair · 25-08-2010, 10:30 AM

She's just a genuinely nice woman. There's some good breeding there!

Sunday · 25-08-2010, 10:31 AM

Thats why she won, she is a really nice person. And that proves it.

Chuckyegg · 25-08-2010, 10:56 AM

Lovely thing to do. This is gonna really wind up her haters.

mizzy25 · 25-08-2010, 12:13 PM

yup a lovely thing to do

Lex · 25-08-2010, 12:31 PM

The well thought out gesture worked then!....A small price to pay for being a saint that no-one could vote out of the ultimate show!!....Well done Josie!...You've still got em'!!

And NO!!....i'm not a Josie-hater!....Just a fan of a great player!!

I like to think that I would be smart enough to have done the same!!

Was brilliant of her, yep!

and Steve's legs were hurting him when he stood up/walked for too long as they were properly digging in

BJ · 25-08-2010, 01:12 PM

It was a lovely thing to do. All credit to her. She didn't make a big thing of it in the last few days to try to sway opinion, either.

blackparade · 25-08-2010, 01:26 PM

I hope she means it....then I will agree she is very nice. I mean why wouldn't you buy Steve a leg? You go in there with no money, you can make plenty of money outside the house with mag deals etc, and Steve really needs that leg. So I would give it to him right now if I had the money!
