    you could write to both tesco and sainsburys to ask if they will each match the highest bid amount - after all, they are getting publicity out of it too!

    Make your own Pot Noodles using a flower pot, sawdust and some old shoe laces. Pour in boiling water, stir then allow to stand for two minutes before taking one mouthful, and throwing away. Just like the real thing!

    Fantastic idea, i'll get right on it.
  • Sorry, but I'd rather support other charities like Childline. Some NSPCC ads seem to suggest that kids need rescued from the normal ups and downs of family life whether they want "rescued" or not, and that disturbs me. It also bothers me that they seem to have similar status to Social Services in officialdom, but without the accountability. Furthermore, I think their position on the smacking debate (which was basically that any compromise is bad) did more harm than good. I could go on, but suffice it to say they don't get any of my money or gestures of support.
    Congratulations on your clever idea for a novelty ebay listing though. It made me smile!
