NC (name changed as I don't want this to be outing)

A rhythmless man at church has said he wants to put on a concert to raise some money for shoeless orphans. We shall call him A.

A said to B that they have money to help. B said that the last concert raised some issues but would support them none the less.

C said she didn't want to be forgotten.

Who is BU?

Are you Z?

nowayishere · 28/08/2018 19:49

Glad you name changed. All that detail makes it incredibly identifying.

Thanks.

I give up. Who is BU?

Ah but what donation should a concert giver make to the church in a clandestine envelope, and is it the most tax efficient way of giving?

nowayishere · 28/08/2018 19:52

I'm not a fan of B tbh. A is ok but does it for the glory.

What were the issues raised by the original concert? I think there is a massive backstory here that you are just not telling us. Do you have issues with C?

Ah, that explains it all now. Glory hunter.

We asked for donations at the last concert but nobody gave anything.

I bet A is John Sergeant , he didn't have any rhythm.

Tight arses.

Isn't Rhythmless Man in the X Files?

It was too noisey. A brought in some African drummers. they were fab but a few people didn't like it.

No issue with C. She always has to do something, though (I am not C.)

But you haven't denied being Z.

The last concert IBU

It didn’t raise any money

Won’t somebody think of the children?

WhyIsntGeorgeCalledPeterOrPaul · 28/08/2018 19:57

I'd stay clear of the lot of them. In my experience A, B and C are easy as 1, 2, 3.

nowayishere · 28/08/2018 19:57

HeckyPeck

We are putting on a concert to help them. I think we are doing enough!

I think you need to go with:

D. All of the above.

It was multiple choice?

How many orphan shoes can you buy with £0 in donations?

nowayishere · 28/08/2018 19:59

In my experience A, B and C are easy as 1, 2, 3.

It's not easy though which is why I'm asking for help. Nice user name by the way.

If the last concert was too noisy, maybe have a silent disco this time .

Oliversmumsarmy · 28/08/2018 19:59

Where did the African Drummers come from.
