I like Spiderbaby.... It's got the body of a spider, and the mind of a baby

Has Londonboy and Admin ever been seen together? Because my sauce, (we will call him Chutney to hide his identity) say they may indeed be one and the same.

I wonder if it's possible to get hold of the full colour glossy prospectus from Merrill Lynch that must by now be landing on the door mats of everybody that has ever appeared on a rich list.
I just hope that our Proud History And Bright Future appears somewhere in it.

So, TheTrees on Villa Talk is saying that the New York law firm plane is still at BHX, but Bob Rich's plane is due to leave today.

I have no idea if he is buying us, or if that's why the law firm are here, but should that turn out to be the case, then it is top sleuthing - and all based on having access to actual facts, rather than hearsay.

$1.8 billion according to Wicki. So a pauper by Prem standards.

According to forbes he's worth of about $3 billion, which is about £1,7 billion pounds.
