    You may want to sell Fundsmith too after this nutty video on their official YouTube channel. I didn't realise British industrialists still existed.

    It's a bit cliched "I made my money the hard way" etc......but staying solvent making steel castings in the UK is pretty good.....and I know it's tough as my Dad apprenticed with Dorman Long and I worked on the Redcar blast furnace and neitherof those is any way close to what they once were.

    Anyway standing in front of a crucible not wearing hot metal gear isn't very smart so I won't be taking any of the advice to heart.

    It almost brings a tear to the eye. "And when Terry asked for my daughter's hand in marriage for his son, I was happy to say Yes, even though neither I nor my daughter had met his son or knew his expected release date."
