OK Ladies and gentlethings....

There has been a load of guff flying around on here about the state of my 'Barnet' (English Cockney Rhyming slang: 'Barnet Fair'=Hair!)

Yes, its a mess! It has been grown for a specific job, which was postponed and now has been cancelled due to my shoulder injury. As a result, I find I am in posession of a ridiculous mop with a big shiny bald bit at the back (its a solar panel for a s.e.x. machine...honest!) The time has come!

However I am not willing to sacrifice my locks so easily! Therefore I am willing to ceremonially have it all shaved off...in return for a sizeable donation to charity!

I have yet to decide on the recipient, however I am currently in favour of K9 Friends and I am looking for a HUGE amount and coverage for Dubai Forums in 7 Days at least! There will be a special donation required from the person (or persons) who wish to be nominated as 'The Cutter' and I think it will have to happen at a suitable location where everyone can see their handiwork as it falls to the floor! Time limit is 1 week from today...

So who will open the bidding?



Knight

I'll Donate 500 Dirhams.

Dhs.100.00 Donation from me.

Thats the spirit! Good on you boys!

Laughing is only allowed when you make a sizeable donation HP

This seems to be an arbitrary and totally random number...until I realise that it comes from a totally arbitrary and random mind! Nice one!

I see you are joining me in the shaved head club!! Congratulations!!

I would like to suggest the following:

If we can raise 3000 for the charity, DK has to shave off half of the hair from his head. And has to stay like that for 1 week until the other half can be shaved off......

What you saying DK?

Er...never been one to worry about my 'Street Cred', so lets see how the bidding and pledging goes shall we!

Mind you...I think the charity that benefits from this sacrifice is going to have to be eternally greatful!

Gulp!



Knight

Sure I can find some pocket change

So far the pledge total is Dhs. 955.30, we need to reach a minimum of Dhs. 3,000.00 for the half shaved option which has to be worth seeing.

So how about some more donations, also this is not a "Men" omly affair, the girls are more than welcome to contribute.

Suuuuuuurrre! Anything for DK to look more like a clown!!

200 Dhms from me! What do we have to pledge to be the cutter??? Call me Edward scissorhands!

xx

Thank you Princess, the cutter has to pay, not be paid

Dhs.1,155.30 running total

Count me in for 200.

I'd prefer a kid's charity or even Lebanon relief - but I'll go with whatever the DFers and the 'cuttee' decide.

Cheers,
Shafique

Put me down for 100 ...

As suggested to Lloydy last night there is a small charity here that helps disabled kid (we did a car run for them a couple of months back)

One is all for downs syndrome and the other is Teens for Positve action. The latter encourage teens to spend some time every week with disabled and disadvantaged kids to enrich the quality of both groups lives ... and who said kids in dubai are spoiled

Other than that kitty or doggy charities are cool

As DK is having the dirty deed done I think he should be allowed to select the recipient, however being the grand chap that he is I am sure that he will take all suggestions into consideration.

Running Total is; Dhs. 1,455.30

Come on Guys & Gals

Charity selection is open. I personally favour a children's charity...suggestions?

Here is a suggestion that may help the "cause": every 50 dhs pledged = 1 vote towards the final selection of the charity.

(bearing in my that I am partial to K9 Friends as I know they get zero assistance from the goverment and do a grat job simply from private donations - and it was the first possible recepient mentioned).

I have another idea but I'll wait on that one!

I pledge 100 AED. Any charity is fine with me, as long as it is one that gives the majority of what it receives to the actual cause, not to admin fees. (I hate those kinds of "charities".)

100 dhs from me too. Do you take cheques?

count me in for 300 dhs

Ok all, the running total is Dhs.1955.30


We still have a way to go, so lets dig deep, any amount is OK, remember DK's minimum target is Dhs. 3,000.00.

S&O what do you say you round it up to 2000 dirhams with an small increase to your earlier donation?

S & O increases his pledge to Dhs.144.70.

Running total is now Dhs. 2,000.00

Come on you people, loose change will also do it
