Uh Oh, be careful what you promise for charity

I’m very pleased to say we managed to raise over £200 in the MoneySavers charity auction. However I think I trapped myself in a corner. With the books I promised “I will sign whatever you want to someone”. Now the requests are coming in and I see the error of my ways. One wants “Dear XXXXXX, you are the very best MoneySaver on the site, thank you so much, yours Martin Lewis, MoneySavingExpert.”

Now I’m worried. Am I going to have to write “Dear XXXXX, I owe you £500” or “Dear XXXX, will you marry me” Gulp, be careful what you promise!
