CHARITY BEGINS HERE........

Postby Grumpy » Thu Oct 01, 2009 10:35 am

Was just thinking, - Ya, Ok, Maybe it's the wind here in Cape Town........ :?
It' so nice to 'give', !! (free) -- or help........ (^^)
It's not difficult and costs nothing, so what about a section maybe under 'Hangar Talk' (Mods) where you can list any item you have that you wish to give away (anything) or maybe you got a job for a fellow mate or anything, as long as it's FREE?
Like, 'Let's stand together'.....

Great Idea Grumps

We need to stand together, someting the South African white can not do. We always competing against the "Jones"s" Why is it that when a family comes over from Portugal, Greece etc, within a month they own the local corner cafe? because they help each other.

Keep the Doctor blowing in the Cape.

Great idea. (^^)

Over in Aus they leave unwanted items on their front verge and any passerby can help themselves. They also have 100's of garage sales every weekend where unwanted stuff is sold at give away prices. Helps reduce waste and helps people who cannot afford to buy new stuff.
Some days it's not even worth chewing through the restraints

Trust you to come up with this one Grumpy. Stunning idea.

England have Car Boot Sales to pass on unwanted items. Load the car/trailor/van up. Include a couple of wall paste tables to show off your wares and sell at knock down prices. Good day out for the buyer and a good day for the seller

Happens every weekend in England - it has become an institution there as it will here (Haven't seen it happen yet)

I have one spare seat for Grumpy in my Gyro for a flight of his choice in recognition of this splendid gesture.
Well done bru. (^^)

Seems fair to me ???

I dunno Carel, I kinda like the idea that its a no-obligation free thing between like-minded people.
A small donation towards the forums upkeep perhaps?
