Ok, so I've donated again, it should be over £135k now.
It's gone through with my bank. They've disabled the leave a message facility and if you want your name to show or be anon.
Otherwise seems fine.

I'm guessing some feefees got particularly upset by the jokes.
Authoritarians hate humour.

This has nothing to do with anything really, but it's worth two minutes of youR time.

And No! I have no clue as to why they did it either!

The living rooms of Scotland and Ireland seem to have so much more going on compared to the dust lined bookcases of my own modest abode.😂

Of course if you've donated to the fundraiser and still feel you would like to support For Women Scotland further you could always buy a book, or two with all profits going straight to For Women Scotland at the end of each month! Or you could donate to the fund raiser a second, or third time AND then buy the books next month when you've got spare cash again!

RAISE YOUR GLASSES

No pledge too big,
no pledge too small.
A pledge is a pledge,
FWS needs them all.

So check down the sofa
to find some spare dosh,
Is there any spare change
in the clothes for the wash?

In for a penny,
in for a pound.
Let's get this thing done,
with enough left for a round.

Marvellous! Thanks, it has my daughter howling! I also liked the alligator's revenge on.

Your house sounds like mine.

That's awful that they disablled the comments. They had me in stitches of laughter the last couple of days. I was worse than @Boiledbeetle for checking the updates ............

My memories on my photo came up earlier.

Here's what I was doing today last year!

Different year different numbers watching! Other than that I am doing the same sodding thing!

Ereshkigalangcleg · 19/02/2024 17:25

I'm relieved that they've left the crowdfunder up, I was worried they'd use the comments as an excuse to take it down as happened before, but it's possible that JKR's pledge made that option seem too OTT this time!

vivariumvivariumsvivaria · 19/02/2024 17:26

thanks for all the screenshots. It's good to have them recorded for posterity.

Oh my goodness that’s the funniest thing I’ve seen for a while. Thanks for posting. 😂

All I can say with any confidence is that by this time last year at least one person (including Harrow East and Ilford South) in each constituency had signed the petition! And I really should start deleting more of those maps of anger I'm nearly out of storage space!

SinnerBoy · 19/02/2024 17:40

Here's another heart warming one, but you need to watch to the end, to see why.

So, the money’s sorted. Or will be soon.

what happens at the Supreme Court? Can we go and watch? Can we have golden sedan chairs to carry FWS aloft all the way there, cheering them through the streets and throwing green purple and white flowers ahead of them like a carpet? Can tribunal tweets do their thing and be clutched to our bosoms?

Who knows. But I really like the image you've just conjured in my head! It gives me a warm fuzzy feeling!

Boiledbeetle · 19/02/2024 22:07

You know a thought just crossed my mind that for some reason hasn't until now, what if JKR donated more than £70K but the rest of it was in fivers! Maybe she was responsible for some of the funnier comments?

I mean obviously she'd never do anything like that, but I can dream!
