Bloomdido Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 The stuff used to get siezed and destroyed and then Jesus intervened and now lots of Local Authorities give the stuff to him, his helpers unbrand it and it is given to homeless people. Saves a fortune in storage and incineration and LAs are queueing up to give him stuff. It's actually a vicar at a secret location in Lincolnshire but he said it was Jesus who set the ball rolling when interviewed on the radio. Non the less a brilliant idea where everyone is a winner.
