FOODBANK TODAY!!!!! - Penis Clinic - Setting a reminder on a mobile phone

Post by jdrobbo » Fri Apr 01, 2022 2:05 pm

Well I’m not actually in need of a visit to the penis clinic, but whilst I have your attention, could I please ask for one favour…

If you can afford to do so, please bring a single item (or more) to the CLARETS FOR FOODBANKS collection tomorrow, before our game against Man City.

I’ll be on duty with West Yorkshire Clarets and if Devils Advocate comes and introduces himself, shakes my hand and proves his identity, I’ll donate £10 to the cause, I too if the carrier bag full of things that I’ll be contributing.

Please, please, please, put a reminder on your phone RIGHT NOW, for a few minutes before you’re due to leave and make sure that your tin makes its way into one of our eight bins.

Thank you!!!

Now about that penis clinic….


UP THE CLARETS

A pleasure… get that reminder on your phone. My stuff is all in the spare room, so need the reminder on my phone….about the Foodbank contribution, not my gland.

Just to be clear, I'm to donate my penis to the foodbank?

I mean...I can't exactly say it'll provide anyone much sustenance, but every little helps I suppose.

No, but a few Peperami would work 😲

Needs must. Pre-pandemic, we had momentum and we were returning bins 60-100-% full.

At present we’re returning bins well under 50%. We need that mindset re-instilling.

Unfortunately a sad reflection of where we are at. Partly apathy, partly more struggling too.

Great cause. Well done.

John - Can you just remind people of where the bins will be located and during what times? Also, if someone arrives and it's after the bins have been taken away, is there still somewhere where donations can be left?

I'm glad you went with the Tesco phrase of "every little helps" rather than Sainsbury's range of "Taste the difference"...

Of course…

Four bins situated outside club shop

Two bins situated higher up outside the away entrance

Two bins situated on Ormerod yard




Any donations arriving after 2:45 pm can be taken directly to the container next to the fan zone, where community staff will gratefully take them from you.

Just kick-offs between 2 and 5:30pm at present. I’m sure you could drop it off with someone though. Perhaps Tony will be able to answer that one

It's been more difficult this year - we weren't allowed to do any food collections until the Palace game in November and then it has been so stop/start with a lot of midweek games too. There's been less publicity for it as well which hasn't helped. But we are out and about for the remaining afternoon games this season.

I once saw a recipe for Penis Pie in The Daily Telegraph. I was working at an old people's place at the time so I put it up on the notice board under 'Today's Menu'. Unfortunately the secretary took it down before the old biddies could see it.

No - just isn't possible to get volunteers down there in time but for the next weekend game Leisure will be leading Accy Clarets on duty with Central Lancs Clarets (West Ham) and North Manchester Clarets (Newcastle) to follow.
