    If what Reggie is saying is true then I would like them to be more upfront on where the money is allocated why they fought so hard against them on where their donation was going.
    Its not a good sign to see a whistle blower tipping them of about these accounts.She obviously had concerns.


    I realise that money needs to go towards research but most people I know think that this money is going towards respite care and I think in light of recent developments with charities they need to be very open and clear on where the proportions of monies are being split and how the research money is being spent.


    I just got nominated but I think its a good idea what some one said earlier about putting up a screengrab of the donation as well.
    My FB page is full of them and only one person mentioned the charity never mind donating.

    Just seen a lad do it with a slurry tanker there, I'd say there was a queer stench off him afterwards!

    If that was in Waterford I think the victim was my cousin. The lad on the tanker used to be a legend for the full monty when it was trendy. Top class beef farmer now.

    No, it was in Roscrea. Slurry tanker seems to be getting more and more common for it though.

    Seen a video of a lad doing it with a tanker. Sat behind it on a bucket had it wound up I'd say. Back door opened pushed him down the yard 20ft

    Biotech and big Pharma are where the real research goes on for diseases.

    Not with money from ice bucket challenges.

    Jaysis, you'd want to have a few LifeAid sachets handy for the next morning.

    Drink the bucket of whiskey and pour LifeAid with ice over yourself? Hope for a hangover cure via osmosis:D

    900000 raised to date. I'll say they'll get the million.
    Representative from MND on radio said 25% was going to research and rest was going towards home care and facilities
