I was once in Waterloo station with a lady of my acquiantance and there was a bloke there collecting for 'Save the Tiger' so I stuffed a tenner in his tin. She looked at me and said "What did you do that for?" I replied "Well, if my tenner saves a tiger, and then that tiger eats someone, then I've directly paid £10 to have someone eaten by a tiger - and you haven't been able to get value for money like that since the Roman Empire!"

She just looked at me funny.
