    West Africa needs your used Bra's

    I didn't think they wore bra's in Africa, probably need them for slingshots or something.

    Oxfam launched the 'Big Bra Hunt' at London's Spitalfields market yesterday, starting a month-long campaign to increase unwanted bra donations. Some will be sold in Oxfam's UK shops, but many will be sent to its ethical second-hand clothing project in Senegal, Frip Ethique, where they fetch high prices and help give employment to disadvantaged women.

    OK, I concede defeat. I doubt she bought that one used though. She really doesn't need it however, I'd volunteer to do the bra's job. Free of charge too!!

    I'd say that's a safe bet.

    The eastern world, it is exploding, violence flaring bullets loading. you are old enough to kill , but not for voting, this whole crazy world is just to frustrating, and you tell me over and over and over again my friend, you don't believe we are on the EVE of DESTRUCTION.


    Never approach a bull from the front, A horse from behind, or a fool from any direction.
