Hi Dawn and Donna, I asked at that time for the money to go to Donna's support site as I knew there were overheads that were being paid out of Donna's pocket. I knew at the time and still know that the site is not registered as a charity. That in no way makes me want to change my mind about the donation as I feel and I am sure there are many others, that the site is worthwhile and is helping people. So Dawn please stop worrying as you did nothing wrong. You raised money for a good cause and it went to a good cause. Donna will you also stop worrying about it. Jacky x

Dawn you have done nothing wrong. As I've just said on Dave's thread I have no problem with the money going to Strump's site and I can't see why anyone else has, after all it's going to a place that helps people.

Dawn please don't worry we know that you did not deceive anyone. You did as asked by the winner and passed the money as requested. Beryl x

Dawnie.... you are one of the most honest people I know..... do not let small minded people question that!! This has happened in the past when people question my honesty with the pink fund and as I said to them.... I can prove where the money went so its up to you to prove I am lying.... they never progressed their threats and just proved themselves to be sad f***wits! Don't let anyone stop you doing the good you have done!! Be proud that you are doing something worthy! xx

Dawn, I sometimes think because this site gives you anonimity some people are 'brave' enough to throw sticks and stones. I suspect a face to face confrontation would not be in their abilities. There are ways of complaining and my past master at this is Him indoors. he is so diplomatic when making a complaint that I feel soooo sorry for the person at the end of his tongue. There are no shouts, waves or naughty words, everything is dealt with in such a way that other people in the shop do not know a complaint is being made. The thing to remember is...Don`t shoot the messenger....after all, the person you are complaining to is only the messenger of your complaint. Kathlyn

I do not want to rake up old slanging matches but seeing as my name was mentioned and I have been worrying the past few days over this I have decided to put my side across. Was mentioned on Friday night about the Treasure hunt proceeds being given to a GR members support site. I did this game with the intention of having fun and to raise money for charity and the winner got to chose where the proceeds went to I just had to pass the money on. When I was asked that the money be given to the site I was told it was not a charity but that is where the winner wanted the money to go so I sent a cheque which as it has been cashed I know it got there after that I don’t know what the money has been used for. If anyone feels misled by all of this because I did say would be given to charity please pm me and I will try and sort something out with you (away from the boards) as it was not my intention to deceive anyone. I have made nothing out of this as was the case when I did the Tick Tock Box where the money went to the Sahara Trekkers via the Pink Fund they were both done as my way of helping others in what I hoped would be a positive way. Please do not use this thread to start up sniping at each other I just need people to know that I did it with good intentions and not to mislead you, if you use this to start a word war again I will delete it.
