    What's next after four medals? Do I get knighted? Or get to accompany Martin on a trip to GMTV to talk about claiming bank charges back and 2 for 1 pizzas?

    If you're good, you can get a sticker. And a Smartie.

    Ooops, forgot I wasn't talking to my 3 year old....

    you get the pleasure of our company and the adoration of people who'll read through pages of rubbish for a brief lol moment.

    More zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

    Back to topic.

    Wilsons - 180 million (claimed) to 90 million (claimed). Ouch. Maybe dodgy Russian !!!!! money will help them out. Would you invest actual cash into these properties.

    What they should do is make a TV programme showing the hapless Wilsons desperate to sell and a dodgy Russian geezer forcing them into a BMV deal with them.

    Karma. Mmmmm, lovely.

    They should be on the next Secret Millionaire. Some 16 year old millionaire kid who's just invented go faster stripes for mopeds could give them a fiver out of pity.

    they are never going to need money from anyone...
