General Chat

He's just been on Radio Sussex talking about his voluntary work for the NSPCC :-D :-D

Good for him Maggie. :-D :-D

You have every right to be proud <3

Certainly someone to be proud of ....a special person :-)

well done to him xxx :-D :-D :-D

He's been volunteering for the NSPCC for years.
He does charity cycle rides, walks etc for them, About 4 times a month now (since he and my daughter have had a baby - it used to be more), he goes into schools to talk to children about problems they may have at home, and who they can contact if they're not happy.

This Sunday, he's taking part in the 'Men in Heels' walk in Worthing, where men are attempting to walk a mile in heels, to raise money for 'Safe in Sussex', which is a charity concerned with victims of domestic abuse.

Unfortunately, I can't get down there, but I'm sure my daughter will be taking photo's :-D :-D

You are right to bre proud of him Maggie. :-)

Well done to your son-in-law, Maggie :-D

Now, can someone please explain why England has a National Society for the Prevention Of Cruelty to Children, but a ROYAL Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals :-S :-S

What a star! No wonder you are so proud of him.

Paul is walking a mile in women's shoes today - on behalf of 'Safe in Sussex' - a charity that helps those suffering form domestic abuse, and also aims to educate young people about aspects of domestic abuse - amongst other things - how to recognise it, how to avoid it, and where to seek help.

This is the first time I've seen him all 'dressed up', and as some of those in the pic look a little strange, I should tell you, Paul is the one on the left!! :-D :-D

Obviously an extremely caring young man. He will be glad to get the shoes off though.
A very worthy cause, so Well Done to Paul and the others too.

Well done to Paul.

I hope he hurled a few oratorical thunder bolts at the 'powers that be' while speaking on the radio reminding them that financial assistance is & has regularly been raised by such good individuals.

Where might we be without selfless volunteers in many walks of life?

Don't they all look good? Is the one with the beard and split skirt getting chatted up?

Kandj, I've suggested my daughter got in some muscle relaxant!!

Dermot, The interview started with the reporter explaining what Paul did - then asking him what he did! His reply was 'What you've just said' - he then went on to explain in more detail, but it reminded me of a comedy sketch I heard.

They do, Chris - almost outshine the lady mayoress (if you can spot her) :-D

He looks a treat in the picture .well done .no wonder you are proud M.I.L. :-D

He does look lovely, doesn't he Barbra. He'll get a right old ribbing from me, next time I see him - he looks better in a frock than Grayson Perry :-D

well done to your s-i-l

Well done to him. :-)

I've only just seen this thread.

Well done to your Son-In-law Maggie :-)
