I've just been told IABU and a bit uptight about this so I'm interested to see if I'm the only one who thinks this is out of order.
I've just been sent a Justgiving request on FB which has been widely shared in my area and beyond. It's a request from a local family to raise £3k so that their family dog can get a life saving/prolonging operation. So far they've raised £360 and clearly people who don't have much money but love animals have given £10 or £20 to help out. I know a couple of the contributors as patients and I know they don't have money to spare.
All well and good but I know this family and they have three children in expensive public schools, horses and a property worth well over £1m with an attached cottage rented out at a rate that would cover the vets fees in under a month. Oh, and an attitude towards 'the little people' that isn't very nice (the 'little people' being exactly the kind of people who are generously contributing what they can).
Shouldn't they pick up their own tab at the vets😡 Or am I BU?!
