I love Christmas TV but this year I have been wound up by the adverts.
Every time I switch on the TV there is a least 1 advert that is asking me to sponsor an animal of some kind - A dolphin, a panda, a dog and the list goes on and on!!!!
First off if these charities / agencies spent the money they spent on advertising on the cause then I wouldn't have to sponsor an animal and secondly (most importantly) when did we become a world which cares more about animals than about people the number of ads asking for money for humane charities appears to have decreased.
Now don't get me wrong I am not anti Animal but I am pro Human.
Look around and you will see plenty of place where the money can go.....a lot closer to home.
there's the homeless, Children, poor families, Sick and the elderly.
If i was to make a new years resoloution it would be go give more of my time to Humane issues.
Is it a surprise that humane issues continue to rise when at the same time we are being asked to give our money to look after animals......somethings not right.
Again I am NOT anti animal campaigns I would just like to see us looking out for each other more.
I love this song and it says it all!!!
United States of America
Looks like another silent night
As we're sung to sleep by philosophies
That save the trees and kill the children
And while we're lying in the dark
There's a shout heard 'cross the eastern sky
For the Bridegroom has returned
And has carried His bride away in the night.

10 things i find really really annoying
1- Unfunny comedians- I know that this is a matter of taste, however........some people are just not funny, please do not subject me to them!!!
2- adverts - every now and then a gem of and advert comes up but for every gem there are a million awful awful adverts usually involving animals, cleaning product, makeup & cheesy magazines... the world would actually be a better place without any adverts what so ever - i will not buy your product casue you tell me too!!!
3- My laptop - even as I am writing this may laptop has crashed... at times I want to throw it out the window
4- My diet - ...... have had to cut out all snack foods this is mainly annoying because when I wake up in the morning I am so hungry.
5- Getting out of bed - It doesn’t matter if it is a nice sunny day or the coldest winter's day. I am not sure if it’s the getting out of my nice warm bed or just the waking up that I don’t like
6- Home video shows - now I like slapstick humour but these show are usually the same repeated snippets of un-funny staged rubbish it started with you've been framed but now we have Oop's TV which is just not in the slightest bit funny and to make it worst has an unfunny comedian(see No 1) narrating the show!
7- Drivers who leave it to the last second to get in the correct lane! - Why why do they do that.
8- The fact that Asda don’t do free re-fills on there Coffee anymore! - Asda used to give out free re-fills now for some un known reason they have stopped it, so where 2 coffees at dinner cost me 85p they now cost me £1.70- probably not a bad thing really cause I no longer have 2 coffee's!
9- Manchester UTD - no explanation needed!
10- Soap Opera's - these for me, are TV at their lowest like adverts they make me want to throw things at the TV every channel has at least 1 and they are all the same.
