An empty ashtray? In my house? Don't be daft. The only time I see an empty ashtray is when the dog kicks one over.

I knew I could count on Uncle Heavy to stick up for me, nice man that he is. And what did he bid for me?

i didnt bid a dress. i bid cold hard cash, and cold wet booze for the priviledge of seeing you in a dress. well, a miniskirt really.

Hmm, actually I think you'd get more bids from people if he promised _never_ to put a dress on...
I could do without the nightmares it'd cause!

for Jimster. And I'll provide my own dress for him
UH - you'd still get to see him in it! Obviously I'd have to market pictures of this

Uncle Heavy [sic] Posted Sep 24, 2003
look, basically, i think that youd NEVER get to see him in the dress, cos really, you dont even live on his side of the atlantic. if you owned him, whod hold the leed?
therefore, i bid * a billion
