  Thank you my Great and Grand Eagle for your kind words of sound advice over the Million Pounds question. At peesent, I am out side my local Live theatre where they are staging a show called 'The Vigina Monollogues.' by Eve Ensler. Their slogan is, 'Come and see it even If you don't have one!!!' I put it to the knollagable with their joined up thinking. Is this discrimination, why can't we all have one?

  I think I'll start a show on 'Oh What a Big One' Monologues.
  I could start the Ball rolling if someone asked me," Do you smoke after sex?" reply, "I dont know I never Look!"

  I work for BBC Wales, we don't HAVE that sort of money.
  
  That's alright my dear as Obama will just print you some from the magic place that no one has yet figured out where he gets it all, or Nibs who happens to be the world's richest individual will just give it to you.
