Charity Leaflets

I have just had a sticker leaflet thingy shoved through my door, I didn't ask for it and I'm not sure if you have it here but when I lived in the UK we have the mail preference scheme. Whereby you register your name and address on a website and they will stop junk mail companies sending you junk. They get a heafty fine if they do. We also have the same for the telephone sales calls. I actually worked for a company who cold called people and if anyone on the list had TPS next to thier name we were not allowed to call them. Again a big fine if we did. The lists were provided by BT so I would assume only BT customers were on it.

Anyway back to this leaflet, the grammer on it was a bit like the 419 nigerian scam emails you get. Not very good and at the top is said 'breast cancer prevention programm' spot the obvious mistake?! Anyway at the bottom it had a website address, so I decided to see what is was. The URL was http://www.donotdelay.org but the actual URL is this http://www.nedelsk.lt/index.php?set_lang_id=en&show_content_id=573

It looks like it is only for women with breast cancer in Lithuania, now I'm not sure about you, but I lost my natural mother to breast cancer, (I was adopted at 6 weeks and she died before I could trace and meet her) and many woment in Ireland and UK die from breast cancer. Wouldn't it be good to support them first? I am not being cold or heartless, but my mother always said 'charity begins at home' and there is the other saying 'Put your own house in order before trying to straighten someone else's' Also the website is written in atrocious english as I expect they have typed it in Russian and then used babel fish to translate it!
