    I wasn't talking about your planned trip - more the unplanned one you may take when the wind picks up...

    And bring me back some roti canai - miss them.

    Some might say that there isnt much wind on the turbo :)

    Im not a lover of roti, and although a connoisseur of tea, im not too keen on that here either.

    Does living in mallorca count as vulgar and excessive. I have a couple of quid about me but only as im too tight to spend it.

    If I get evicted from the house I can always sleep in the X5. I am sure my valet would make up a bed for me in there. He would have to make do with the Aston, mind. Nice car but not much good as a bed.
    I have only two things to say to that; Bo***cks

    Cuban cigars and Cognac, now you are talking!!

    Bit of a weakness... Claret, too...

    My dear, Nuit St Georges is Burgundy, claret refers to wine from Bordeaux

    Was it vulgar to point that out? :wink:

    This might tick both your boxes. Classy t shirt anyone?

    A model walks the runway in an Hermes crocodile T-shirt -- part of the label's Spring/Summer 2013 collection.
    Could it be the most expensive T-shirt — ever? Not quite, as there’s stiff competition out there from a black-diamond-encrusted tee and another made from solid gold. But this crocodile T-shirt from Hermes (purveyor of handbags with price tags that regularly creep into the quadruple digits) is retailing for a whopping $91,500 at the brand’s Madison Avenue flagship store.

    According to PETA, there’s more at stake here than dollars that could’ve been spent on two years of college education, a couple of cars, or — better yet — a flying car.

    “The highest price for this rather cheap-looking and ludicrous Hermes T-shirt is paid by the crocodiles who were bludgeoned to death or even skinned alive to make it,” PETA spokesperson Colleen O’Brien said.

    oooh, do they do one with rear pockets? With matching bib shorts?
  • I love how any time there is mention of animals parts in clothing PETA throw a hiss fit saying the animal was bludgeoned to death or skilled alive. It could very well be true, but they don't know. Could be ethical way of putting them down, but they go nuts straight away.

    Is there really an ethical way of killing an animal for its skin? Lets hope it died a painless death whatever the cause/reason for the death was.

    Is it ethical if you eat the animal and then use its skin?

    Really its only an overpriced water retailer nothing wrong with the website though.

    Know it has some rather naff Z list female celeb's attached to them (along with some much higher profile ones) but can't see any 'dodgy' photos on their website

    I would reply to this but the Ferrari got stuck in the snow whilst I was taking a delivery of French truffles from Alsace on the way back from the vintners where I ordered 12 dozen bottles of Nuit St George at a bargain base ment price of £38 a bottle. The chaps are coming over by helicopter from the City later. We are having a quiet bash - drop of caviar and 200 year old Cognac to wash the truffles down. Spot of billiards later and maybe a Cuban cigar or two...

    You personally take delivery of truffles?
    You poor chap! I've got a man for that.

    Having seen Russian's and talented chimps on holiday from the premiershit would suggest there is someway for someone to travel.

    However having seen ex pats abroad makes you want to heave as well.




    I saw the richest man alive a few months ago on tv. He was a hairy arsed farmer with an expectant wife and a swarm of older children and said he had the perfect life. The farm and location so just so beautiful as well.


    The vulgarity of the huge gaps in the post...tut tut tut.

    How did you know he was a hairy arsed farmer ?
