<p>Right! Who wants to see me wear a Mountie uniform to work? Your donation to Children in Need can make that happen.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>If you like the idea of the rather humdrum staid offices of the BBC's Future Media division being brightened up by a bit of red serge and a silly hat, please show your support by donating a few pounds or Canadian dollars or beaver pelts or whatever you can spare.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Not only will you be contributing to silliness in the workplace, you will also be helping thousands of children across the UK.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>In case you need further encouragement, if the overall total hits &pound;500, I will perform a dramatic reading of the epic poem "The Shooting of Dan McGrew" by the great Canadian poet Robert W. Service and post the resulting video online.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Ironically, as I am not actually a member of the RCMP, if I dressed up as a Mountie back in Canada, this would make me a criminal who would be rounded up and thrown in jail by actual Mounties.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails.
