Chris Boonzaier Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 why destroy the poor mans dreams !! In his mind he had probably already spent the money ;-)
bigjarofwasps Posted December 10, 2005 Author Posted December 10, 2005 Chris, I feel really bad now.....NOT!!!!! It never ceases to amaze me when people come up with nonsense like this, oh its Queen Victoria etc, it must be priceless!!!! I remember once at an antique fair seeing a miniature Victory medal, with a silly price to it, that time I didn`t say anything just walked away!!!!
