Problem is you are supposed to SELL the diamonds, not keep them for your own pleasure! Get that right and I am sure you will be fine!
Just flutter those eyelids and smile sweetly.
(Its what I do)
As for the hugs in a mug, lets get onto the beeb right now! There must be at least a fiver in that! Or a lifetime supply of cup-a-soup?
I heard that Cup a Soup Hug monster was Chewbacca's stunt double?
i believe thats true, but it was never credited due to a contract dispute

i heard it was an incident occurring when the big blue hug tried it on with Chewies favourite ewok...
It appears Ewoks don't like wild mushroom soup then?
This weekend some pals of mine are coming through Brussels on their way to Amsterdam and the Hague and they have with them what they are hoping to provenence as a genuine Da Vinci.
It's a long story, but Robert is 72 and an art dealer and he found something that had been painted over many moons back and bought it for peanuts (about 100,000 Euros) and had it checked and there's a painting of baby John the Baptist kissing baby Jesus. It matches another Da Vinci and could well be an earlier attempt (or later). The original owners were Jewish and they took a long holiday at the expense of the Nazis from which they and their entire family never returned. Robert is also Jewish and managed to buy it back, through some route he is unwilling to explain.
He was offered a large (undisclosed) sum for it by Steven Spielberg, but wants to probvenance it and then give it to the state of Israel. I can think of better ideas. The guide price, if it's provenenced, is $30m to $45m.
So. I'm going to have either unimaginable wealth or shattered dreams in my house this weekend. And we'll drink some beer and talk and eat kosher and then my daughter gets back on Sunday. Yaaay! More beer.

This is it. Steve Holmes is an old university buddy. It is he who is driving Robert.
This is what you call provenance.

not entirely unbelievable, but then a member of my extended family has considerably more money than several small countries, so maybe i'm less cynical than most.
i never see any of it though
