C*nt me off. Not a problem.
I am desperate for airmiles from Madrid to London,return for two days only to see my mother before her dementia fully kicks in. She's battled cancer and in April had a stroke and all down hill since.
I can't borrow money I made a vow to myself that I am too ashamed at 42 to ask for money. defjam has paid my west ham games when in UK once a year and my Army mates bailed me out of when needed in past due to no entitlement of social security for me in Spain.
I've read WHO from day dot.
The golden threads has got me through some difficult times with the banter of WHO. My hobbie whist serving abroad for 8 years with the 1st Battalion Royal Green Jackets was writing and the comedy gold threads of WHO inspired me.
I need help. I am ashamed to ask. I'm not entitled to the WHO fund as I've never posted properly or regularly. Just read to keep my spirits high.
After the Army ,before the craze of Post traumatic Stress Disorder I was diagnosed with manic depression after 3 months in a nuthouse. Farnborough common.
I've always been a grafter. At 16 part of a team that set up the rave Lazerdrome Innersense ,well before that future promotions. Was my idea as had my 16th birthday there and contributed to the idea of making it a rave club instead of a lazertag ( Lazer quest it was called ). Also worked with set up of Club UK, McLusky and Wigan. Due to my older brother working with them to set up the Brain club.
8 years Royal Green Jackets and 10 years nightlife.
After breakdown of my marriage and with 8 pills a day prescribed not E. I became a suicidal alcoholic .
I lost all. I sold my marital home and gave all to my wife of 18 years. A Good good woman.
Born in Peckham surrounded by Millwall always picked on but never gave a fuck and stood my ground.
I've met Penner's and Gank and a couple of you once at the new gaff for a game invited by defjam. So they know I'm short and skinny and look far from tough. But I've never took any shit from no one and stood my ground.
I can if not believed ,post photos of me with Phil Parkes Tony Gale Sir Trev etc as a child my dear departed nan took me to sussex beach west ham coaching holidays in Chichester yearly. claret and blue in my blood since 1975.
My marital home was 5 minutes from Cass on Penge high street . We regularly saw each other in the local printers on Penge high street near the Sainsbury's .
After city roads Crisis intervention detox and rehab I moved to Madrid Spain. I had 50€ so was wise thinking if gonna struggle and have to rough it. I chose the richest neighborhood in whole of Spain Pozuelo outside La Finca where half of Real Madrid football team live. One of safest places in Spain . Within a month was working and teaching at Real Madrid the media department and chief photographer.
I turned my life round and am now an experience English foreign language teacher with highest levels Cambridge Celta and Delta diplomas. So work will be fine from September if I can get out of this hole and black dog of depression I've had since October.
My mother has been fighting cancer for two years, I have been a cunt of a son and live with this guilt , she now has had a stroke phone, she does not recognise my voice on the phone.
I have been raised that if you do not ask you do not get.
To expect nothing and accept everything.
Does anyone have air miles that they could spare , not money.
To fly from Madrid Barajas to any London airport - for depart 6th and 9th return Madrid August.
In PM I can explain why cant stay any longer in UK.
With hope and COYIs this season is looking to be interesting.
If can I not reply immediately it is because I am in the middle of nowhere at present on a farm with no wifi or phone coverage.
Please inbox if you are in a position to help and have spare air miles.
Thank you.
Peckham.

I don't own any air miles sorry but isn't there some kind of WHO type fund for these types of issues?

Peckham you don't need to be a regular poster, most on here will take you at your word and if Defjam knows you then that will be good enough, the WHO fund is empty now Gavros ran that for us. I'm sure if somebody would set up some kind of giving page a few on here including me, will lob some money in.
Good Luck

Nice one guys, peckham messaged me earlier to say he'd put up a post.
I can vouch for him, I did say i'd pay for his flight home but if theres a fund then I'll bung in.
I said i'd pick him up and drop him at his mums but i'm only around Sunday in next few days then back from Berlin next Thursday.
I'll try figure something out, maybe book him a flight back from Madrid next Thursday same time as mine from Berlin and i can meet hm at Gatwick?
I'll speak to him tonight, I'm sure he'll be very grateful for the support.

It's the other way around, Gav. Prices are similar though.
Sadly there are no economy seats using Avios on those days, just business class at 30k Avios and £50.

When I say I am close to giving up , I do not mean in a depressive gonna do something stupid way, just give up on myself.
Its no bullshit , fly home give my mum a hug and see my niece with downs syndrome and get back to Spain on track.
Its no bullshit that I will if anyone visits Madrid give them a tour of stadium and not seats for a game but whack on a press vest and pass blag you a camera and sit pitchside with photographers.
My Dad committed suicide before i could ever say I loved him and thanked him for all he tried to do for me.
Im on hillbilly farm now out of Madrid, with the hillbillies doing fuck all for these kids and me doing all.
Close to giving up on this and faith in people.
So PLEASE dont think this is a poor me poncing job.
I can repay WHO fund without doubt by November.
With thanks for reading my shitty embarrassing situation.

Is the WHO fund open for business (still)? Can some mod whack the details in the o/p so I can catch it later?
