I know its a bit more of a fanny on to do that though. The only thing I do really to help countries like this is send a shoebox every year to gambia I think it is, at xmas, with a toy and a few other things in it. And put my old glasses in the box at the opticians...apparently they go to third world countries

Yeah i use to do the shoebox thing when i was younger totally forgot about it until you just mentioned it now
