    As for looking clever, yes, you have certainly  achieved that.

    Awwww geeee, thanks Bloss

    ppl often buy me these orchids in a plantpot   popular as gifts now, tall stem a few leaves and flower, after a month all leaves drop and eventually flower too , I was told the roots need light as in jungle the roots are above ground ? but they look ugly in a clear pot ? kinda …. as you may have guessed I’m not green fingered,  mind you my flowering tubs were magnificent last year ;-)

    And btw, no offence, well to be honest if you’re offended I’m sorry but unaffected, I happen to think you are a bit thick. Just my opinion B-)

    Blossom neither is everyone else stupid ! of course if we lived in a perfect world there would be no need for it !  well doh !!

    We don’t live in a perfect world, and never will, the root cause of most of this worlds problems are man made.

    Switching the subject to some sort of ‘fix the world ‘ cause,  is taking away from the topic, in a thoroughly childlike and simplistic way! We know the root cause, of course we do , you haven’t had an epiphany you know ! We all know that !!, thankyou very much ! However, as we can’t ‘fix the world ‘ and tackle the fact that a lot of ppl are basic sh its, maybe pointing out that certain ‘charities’ are almost fraudulent and some actually do what they say on the tin and try and help and educate people, is  helping  in some small way, rather than you spouting what everyone with an iq of over 20 already knows, but is powerless to change !

    I repeat, WE KNOW THE ROOT CAUSE LUV !!!,

    maybe tho, having read this thread some people may choose to place their charitable donations to another more worthy cause, instead of lining the pockets of Directors who haven’t looked after a sick or injured animal in their life .

    That , my dear, is what’s called, maybe , just maybe , achieving something worthwhile, instead of trying to look clever and achieving nothing .

    People mistreating animals is a completely different topic, its like saying ‘if people didn’t abuse kids there would be no need to have kid helplines and charities !!!  NEVER GONNA HAPPEN, unfortunately

     

    In my opinion Sophie was disclosing the fact that , unlike other animal charities, the RSPCA is profit making and making its directors rich ! of course funds aren’t infinite, but there would be more funds for the animals if the fat cats at the top took a pay cut !!

    I set up a direct debit to the RSPCA a year or so back, I think it was  £10 a month, not a vast amount but £120 a year is not to be sniffed at, after about 3 months the phone calls started, basically asking to increase my subscription, I declined, they phoned again and again and again, despite me asking them not to call again, even threatening to cancel my subscription,  e mails with graphic photo’s, obviously intended to instil guilt and use emotional blackmail, it was upsetting but had the reverse effect because I was livid that they were still using these tactics to get money out of someone already contributing, for all they knew I could have been hard up and struggling, so I’m afraid I cancelled my subscription and now donate to local animal charities who really do struggle and rely on people helping out.

    The topic isn’t about, cruel, misguided, irresponsible people, parents  etc etc , that will always be there, its about the RSPCA specifically, or that’s what Sophie meant anyway, don’t turn it into a ‘ how do we fix humans’ thread fgs !!

    Sophie I hope I’ve got that right anyway lol

    I realise this thread has taken a swerve ball since it started but felt the need to speak up before you, blossom, turn it  into a chapter of ‘The World According To Blossom Thread’ ……yet again
