** JW RAISES £300 FOR RICHARD HAMMOND MESSAGE POSTED **

Yep lets do that. Who will be collecting all the money and donating it in the name of JW?
|
I can do that if people are happy to trust me, I will of course post up screen grabs to prove that I paid the money over, please can someone find out if the charity take visa, cheque and paypal etc, it would be easier to post the proof up if it were visa or paypal.
I will make a list of everyone that has donated in the name of JW here (which can have its own thread if there is enough demand for it) :
Anyone wanting to make a donation to the Hammond chosen charity in the name of JW (but your name will be included on the get well card) can send their donations to the usual address [email protected] - PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU MENTION THAT THE DONATION IS FOR THE HAMMOND CHARITY AND ALSO INCLUDE YOUR JW USER ID.
I can also accept payments in the post/bank transfer and moneybookers but you will need to PM me for the details.

3. You can post a message with your name that shows the amount you have donated only when you have actually paid, and we can still get some free advertising in for the site with a bit of luck.

Damn, seems we don't think as much of Richard as we thought.
This is sad and pathetic so far.
Thanks to the 3 generous souls that have donated so far.
