**Cards for Good Causes launched their charity Christmas cards site earlier this
month, as UK Fundraising [reported](https://fundraising.co.uk/1999/11/08/cards-good-causes-launches-online/).
The two celebs who joined the launch event were TV presenter Maggie Philbin and 
Lord Jeffrey Archer.**

The Guardian Online spotted the presence of Lord Archer, who has subsequently been
busy hitting the nation’s headlines for other reasons, and [featured](http://www.newsunlimited.co.uk/online/story/0,3605,107279,00.html)
the site in this week’s edition.

“Better luck with your next photocall, chaps,” quipped The Guardian. UK Fundraising
thinks a little free coverage in a national newspaper two weeks after the event 
seems perfectly acceptable luck. [Cards for Good Causes](http://www.cardsforcharity.org)
incidentally is run not by a ‘chap’ but by Judith Rich OBE.
