What a fine truffle. It is not easy to find those - you have to train pigs to hunt them and then spend weeks rooting around in the forests, since they grow underground.

Having said that, I think there would be better things I could do with 130,000 then a mouthfull of mushroom. I would hire a lifetime supply of girls...

Or you could stop kerb-crawling and move into call girls.

It is all the same really. There is an old English saying that goes "Every Hole is a goal"

Beggars can't be choosers, I guess. Is that an old English saying?

Well, there is, but I would not be begging - I would be paying!

I won't beat around the bush - maybe you shouldn't interpret these sayings literally.

He he, "Beat around the bush"
It is kind of a sexual sounding euphamism, now I think about it.

I agree, but for the rich, they are normally not effected by the CC, thats unless they have a crap finance advisor

Its all realitive, £ 130 K for someone worth 2 billions is pocket change
