Agreed and I suspect that perhaps your suggestion is a good one for November assuming no other part of the world gets destroyed in the mean time.

Can I make a suggestion for Novembers donation please, either Children in Need or since we are a military forum a military charity (sound selfish dont I lol), but there are a lot of people out there who are donating money to these relief charities. It seems like all the people who are risking/risked their life and limb for our various countries and other peoples countries are being left by the wayside to be forgotten!!!

Red Cresent sounds good to me.

The kids in new orleans, the place where the earthquake was (the name escapes me at the moment

The CCF are vary reliable and have been around for a while, so I suggest them
