Hey soulgirl, brass neck much?

While we are on the begging trail.....

I want a 22B, do you all want to donate a fiver each so I can get my car?

What a great idea! Chancer? Me?

By the way, I've just thought of a great way to raise the funds for your paint-job and its a tried and tested method, guaranteed to succeed.

Whats it called again?

Oh yeah, GO AND WORK! Then you can pay for it yourself!

Dead smart me!

Hey.. now thats a worthy cause! I will deffo do the donation to breast cancer. I had a scare myself when I was 18 and had a breast lump removed so I know the worries us girls go through.. I will put a link up tomorrow. Thank you!

I think in fact - 50% would be fair!

Hello, I really want my car pink.. so much in fact, I have devoted a website to that exact end in the hope of raising enough sponsorship to make my glittery pink dream a reality.

I need as much help with my quest as possible and wondered if you would be interested in making a pinkless woman happy and content.

You can read my plight here Paint My Car Pink

I have already stirred interest with the media for my plight so look out for editorials about my car very soon in the tabloids

i saw a pink scoob at the northern big one, not my cup of tea. I think making me a milionaire is a much better plan.

mj... thanks! I wondered where they were. I was sat at my desk today and lost them during a stressful call when some bloke whined about his scrotal varicose veins... sometimes I just dont understand the male thinking... I said, for gods sake... its a varicose vein - get on with it.. not that he could of course because it was too painful

Glittery pink is a great idea (ahem) and making Jonny a millionaire is a great idea too. But perhaps we should start by making ME a millionaire, that way I could lend you some money John and you could pay to have Karen's car painted.

Then everyones happy.
Especially me.
I am great.

btw just how much are we talking here for a pink paint job?

Forgive me for interfearing (i'm like that!!) but how about for every pound that is donated to your pink car paint job that you donate 10 pence to the UK breast cancer charity, hence the pink ribbon. That way it kind of has a theme to it

http://www.bcc-uk.org/


Also may be worth posting your link to the boys and girls at http://www.pistonheads.com/ I'm sure they will support your pink fetish :P

Talizman....

I do.. I get up every morning at 5.45am to go to work... I do a full day and a full week but wages are ****e! Do not assume, because I ask for sponsorship, that I am a layabout wasting taxpayers money. I have worked solidly for the last 22 years since I left school and support all those that cant be arsed to get a job. I just dont earn enough to have this done.

so, if your suffering from piles, **** fissures or cancer, give me a call... after all, it is my job

How often is the running total updated?

Its been at £283 for ages, if everyone gives a fiver its job done, come on whats a fiver!

What sort of amount are we looking at £2000-£3000 Im thinking.

Later Yoza

How is it "sponsorship"?

Is it not just gifting you cash so you can have your car painted?

Not sure that picture 20 on your site is of your car.

If it is then the paint job could prove to be very expensive!

This method can work, remember the guy that asked for $1 donations to make him a millionaire - it worked!
