CHILDREN'S WARD EASTER EGG DONATION

Mon Mar 04, 2019 4:28 pm

Myself and another Cardiff City stalwart, Paul Candlin are getting Easter Eggs to give to children’s wards around South Wales.

Anyone wanting to get involved, then it’s a maximum spend of £5 and we will be handing them to the wards on Easter Sunday.

If you would like to get involved, then contact Paul or myself via 'pm' and you can buy the eggs yourself or PayPal me the money, if you prefer. Either way, then that’s cool.

Also, if you wish to come with us to the hospitals that is also cool :ayatollah: :bluescarf:

I’ve had my fingers burnt with one of these type of scams before, so if any eggs are going, I’d expect to deliver them myself, about 10 years ago, got roped into paying £5 a month for little Kahlindi based in Mumbai India, didn’t realise I would be paying this for 10 years, wasn’t in the small print, there’s always some skinny bird bleeding me dry

Wow geezer! Firstly,these are well known city fans,secondly,sorry you got "scammed "as you call it for little kahlindi,in india.it clearly states three ways for you to get involved yourself,if you are that way inclined,absolutely no need for your reply tbh,however,each to their own I suppose :old: :bluebird:

If we purchase eggs nukes,how will they get picked up? Well done to you both,on a very worthwhile cause indeed,please ignore the occasional foolish response from people who have been "scammed" in the past,anyway good luck with raising eggs galore :occasion5: :ayatollah: :old: :bluebird:

It was a joke lads, I've used a quote from the Lifes too short series where Warwick Davis states he was scammed by little Kahlindi in India, always a skinny bird bleeding me dry :laughing5:

I think it's decent thing for Nukes and co to get involved in.

Great idea seeing as the team cancelled their trip to the kids cancer ward 5 minutes after they were due leaving a load of sick kids disappointed.

One of the local funeral directors collects selection boxes at Xmas and Easter eggs , and gives to worthy causes, so I’ve started donating for the last couple of years.

Good effort Nukes, already donating a load via my work, you can pick up an egg in Tesco at the moment for 75p, it's nothing to most of us but to a some children will mean the world, dig deep folks

I work part time at Tesco Chief and we are on double discout so with the money I have been given I have got extra eggs with them. So today I got 58 eggs with £35 of donations so that is brilliant.
If anyone wants to help out inbox me and I will give my PayPal details. If anyone does donate off here I will put a pic up of the eggs with your name.
Cheers guys only a £5 per person as well :bluebird:

It's done! I'll vouch for 'Nukes' and his good intentions and I know many more on here will, too! :thumbup:

Superb effort/gesture and (like others) I'll certainly be donating :clap: :ayatollah: :bluescarf: :bluebird:

As someone who’s daughter was born premature and was in ITU over Easter, gestures like this go a very long way and make it feel that you are not alone and people do actually care outside of immediate family and friends

So please donate whatever you can because just one egg makes a difference for a few hours
