Save yourself money - just stick a couple of elastic bands round your wrist.

Top tip: If you follow the postman down the street, you will find several discarded elastic bands within a few hundred metres.

Actually it may be livewrong (thanks Mk2), it has a skull and crossbones on it.

Today I am wearing a watch, that stands for 'I can tell the time'.

I was mildly surprised to see some of the guys at work wearing them - guys in their 40s. I thought these things were for kids?

Same at my work. Basically attention seekers as far as i can tell, the type who are more concerned that people think they give to charity - rather than just giving to charity because they think it's a good idea.

would seem that any new trend latched onto by the yoof of today is considered chav by the older bunch on here.

how can a wrsitband that raises awareness of a charity and sends £ their way be anything other than a +'ve thing???

how much better known is the 'livestrong' campain now thanks to these?? i hadnt even heard of it before these were out.

if it was 20 years or so ago, you'd be calling those with badges/saftey pins and pink moheicans chavs.....
