Martin B Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 I'm currently preparing my English Coursework, and it is based on a personal piece, capturing emotions etc. It is a very open ended task. I would like to write a set of letter to and from your sponsored child. I'm pretty sure somebody here has sponsored a child. I may be wrong. Then after the set of letters I am going to write about the sponsor visiting the child only to find that tragedy has struck and the child has left/died. Obviously I will not be writing about a real sponsored child, just a made up one, based on information I have. I really would appreciate it if you could tell me about or show me some of the things you or your sponsored child have done. Kind Regards, Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubereglu Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 That's a bit cheeky Martin! I didn't get you lot to help me out with my Science homework which took 2 and a half hours did I?! It took ages to find the correct info on banned drugs in sports-stanozolol, oxandrolone! Sounds like an interesting piece of English Coursework-I'd like to do it anyway! I'm quite good at english, especially at poetry and analysation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheilaz Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Well, I expect that you now know more about banned drugs in sport than the rest of us do, Liz! I don't think Martin was looking for a shortcut in his homework. A few people had mentioned sponsoring children before on the forum, so it was a good place to do research, asking for 1st hand experiences. There's so much interesting knowledge to learn isn't there? I'm glad you are both working so hard, well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Yes I now know quite a lot on the subject of anabolic steroids! The worrying thing is most of the drugs they'd taken were readily availiable by perscription from doctors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Man Banned Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 you should have asked Joe or Anita- they know no end of drugs being legalised drug dealers - oops sorry , Pharmacists! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
