    Well.. looks like Messy is a nice guy after all!

    I live in a town called Swindon, England. Its not the biggest of places but theres nothing small about the amount we're doing.

    Today i was watching Sky News, and they ran a report mentioning Swindon, praising their efforts, in one day the whole town had donated so much stuff for the Tsunami relief that it filled an aircraft hanger, all the local stores have either donated money or equiptment to help.

    Im not at work till the 3rd so i thought i would volunteer and help out. Im heading into town tomorrow morning to help load up the vans, trucks and warehouses with all the donations and gifts. Hey, its a bit of manual labour so im sure it will be a nice little workout lol.

    Ive convinced a friend to come with me too, im staying to help for about 5 hours as i have some stuff to get done before i go back to work.

    I'll let you know how it goes!

    Ok, got back 10 mins ago. Cant exactly say it was very hard, spent most of the morning loading up pallets which were then forklifted into large trucks. They provided drinks and food, met some people down there, they all seemed pretty nice and that.

    Well thats my good deed done lol
