I was offered a beautiful 'silk' rug for £20,000 in one of those 'Government' places.  Choked on my chi!

Also to add to the conspiracy theories, the author of this 7 year old tale never even came back once to see if anyone had offered him any late-in-the-day lifelines. You would, wouldn't you :D

I got a stick of rock in 1974 during our family holiday to Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-llantysiliogogogoch. I'm still eating it.
