As WOP reached it's lowest level yet? Possibly yes. Meet Jack Black Jack - a new character from London's East End who loves a little gamble....as his five previous wives would agree.

Christmas WOP: WOP AID 2010
Christmas is a time for fun, drinking your head off and over eating for sure - but also it's a time to think about those that are less fortunate...those that for Christmas, it's just another day of suffering.
That said, don't let it get you down too much. You have to enjoy it don't you?
Neville Cheestring decided to help children that can't afford simple things in life - by that he means trainers and decent shoes.
Yes, more and more children are living without any fashionable clogs, and Neville has decided to step in (pardon the pun).
Neville says ''I couldn't just sit there seeing all these children going about with naff trainers - I had to look away. But then I thought no! I will do something....!''
So WOP AID is born!
Here he is with the first appeal - please give generously or not at all - it doesn't matter for that matter.

More donations
Regular (and I use that term very loosly) readers will recall my delight at receiving a cheque from our very own Neville Cheestring recently - as noted here.
Well, would you believe it, I received another cheque today - this time from WOP's No.1 (and, frankly, only) sports pundid, Kevin Ketley:

Am I once again delighted? Sadly, no.
My initial elation was shortlived when, on closer inspection, I discovered that Mr. Ketley 'forgot' to sign his cheque. The swine.
An innocent mistake? Pah! This is not the first time he's pulled such a stunt. On one occasion, back in mid 2007, having boasted of a win at the annual Pavement Crack Avoidance Agility Contest up at Dangle Yerbitsthen in Yorkshire, he 'donated' 43,000 pesetas to help start the ball rolling for the WOP International Hotel renovation.
Hmmm...
Something is starting to smell decidedly fishy around here - but then, that's probably just Mitch.

The World's Most Worthless Money
I recently received this most gracious donation from our regular contributor and benefactor, Neville Cheestring:

Well, you can imagine my delight - it's not often I get a fake cheque where such effort has been made to make it look half convincing - hey, it's even made of rubber! So, er... yeah. Cheers, Nev. I've got my eye on you, sunshine - and not the glass one, neither.
Sad thing is, I was actually toying with the idea of trying to cash it in at my local bank - just to see the expression on their faces. Hmmm... there's still time... shall I...?!
Anyway, on the subject of worthless money (ah, seamless!), this bank note is actually genuine:

You can find out more about money that quite literally isn't worth the paper it's printed on here.
