    I saw some talk about putting it on ebay to raise some money. Maybe it was a joke, no idea.

    I just found the post and it looks very tongue-in-cheek, a late night joke methinks. Sorry you have been upset about this BW. I dont believe anyone set out to do anything but good.
    Love your Mum, you'll never get another one when she's gone.

    Thanks for the calendar everyone. You have done a great job.
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Dunno if anyone posted but I saw a poster in the window of my local subway today.
    Apparently tomorrow is 'customer appreciation day' so you get a free 6 inch sub when you buy a regular drink (drink usually costs £1.10 I think)
