Nachimir Posted November 14, 2008 It's Friday afternoon, so I'm working *very* hard.

syntheticgerbil Posted November 14, 2008 That certainly was awesome... I think they should get married, and she can take the $233.95 off as a one time thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DanJW Posted December 18, 2008 The story also made it onto Have I Got News For You a few weeks back. I think they failed to mentioned the eBay sale though, which is a shame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
