In the paper, it says you'll need to enter the codeword "Valentine", but I didn't need to use it when following the above link

Good luck everyone!! :D
Lead me not into temptation - I can find it perfectly well all by myself :D

    Me too but I just clicked ok or yes or whatever & it was fine. But, then I saw a "weird" article about a lizard at a belgium zoo :confused::D :rotfl:
  • I don't really have a need for a £2000 diamond and no woman to give one to (with my income I'd never spend that much on a lady lol) the thing is how do you sell a diamond made with your DNA; will anyone on eBay buy it? Will jewellers laugh you out of their store?

    Is this really worth £2000 or is that just the price of the creating one? It's a good prize but I wouldn't know what to do with it lol.
    2007 Won Ipod 30GB Video Sold on ebay for £136.51
    Total Winnings in 2007 = £136.51 :T
    Total Winnings In 2008/2009/2010 = £0 :cry:
    Total Winnings In 2011 = £305.37 (49s Lotto):D
    Total Winnings In 2012/13/14/15/16/17/18 = 0
    Total Winnings This Year = £0 :mad:

    I'm sure you could find a few women around here who would be happy to accept diamonds whatever their provenance. Me, for instance.
    How sweet it is to do nothing..... and then rest afterwards.
