Well, if it's no bad enough to miss a 50/1 winner, it's even worse to see the product that I invented showcased on QVC by that ******* who owes me a fortune in unpaid royalties, not to mention the 10,000 quid loan he refuses to pay back  :008:

You'll be able to relate to my chagrin when you see Ultra Shave flying off the QVC shelves, they sold almost 200 in around 5 minutes !!! see the link below, I guess I have to grin and bare it for now, but I'll be on to QVC informing them that they may well be dealing in counterfeit product. It's a tough fekkin world aint it...

Sue the Barsteward, Bob!~ :rotflmao:

What a lovely position to be in, no not rubbing cream on F.W.'s legs although that could be rewarding too, , but only having to worry about unpaid royalties owed tyo you by n'er-do-wells who have  tapped into your golden stream of spondoolachs.

If you need any spying done on these miscreants remember The Pimpernel Organisation offered a substantial Mother's Day discount on tracking errant husbands  but in consideration of your great contributions to this site and the Cause in general I will extend the deadline for you for a few more days. All work guaranteed to please--well that is what Agent Orange reported back when he was peeping through windows at errant husb..........but of course I have to slip in a rider here that going after royalty robbers is a slightly more complicated berth and carries a slightly higher price tag which has the effect of cancelling out the M.D discount. So.....are we on :clapping02:..?

oh my!!!

what esle have you invented babe?   

and would you like to come and test it on my legs, armpits or  :023:..... or  :023:..... chin  :021:!?!?!?!

The very thought of it had me blood pressure on the rise, until I came to that bit about yer chin...

We were in New Zealand a few years back, and I herd about a GLB Parade the next day, so like most blokes I just had to go take a look {to see if Lesbians really did wear that Fire Engine lipstick, that you see on them video's}.

What a shock I had, wimin in jeans, work boots, little if ANY make up at all, and hairy bleedin chins to boot, put the fear of gawd into me, first time I'd seen a woman with lip/chim hair, it wasnae owt like the stuff you get from Venus Video !

I couldn't get away quick enough, it wasn't a speller above {herd} this lot really were a bunch of ragged *ows...

PS... I thought the 3,500 quid might have attracted you ?  afterall there's no real loss of face {for a woman} to be beat by men in the Napsters thing...

Sue the Barsteward, Bob!

I hear you Rod, the problem with suing Smithies for the royalties is, although I have the money to commence a legal action, I may not have the breath in me lungs to see it completed, and Smithies is well aware of that.

It could well cost me 50,000 quid {to start with} to pay for a Lawyer {the price of a Merc}, and although Smithies would be found in default of payment {eventually} his Lawyer could stretch the case out for YEARS ! years that I don't have.  It wouldn't just cost me money, say another 50,000 quid, by then it would be a 100,000 quid bet if I'd be alive in say 3 years, or 5 years, those odds aren't in my favour, even though the case is good, the chances of me living to see it through would be slim.

With that in mind I'm going to divest myself of the royalty payments due, and let someone else take up the cudgel, someone with a better life expectancy than me, leaving me to pursue a simpler task, that being to go after the 10,000 quid that I loaned the r sole...

The bottom line is Rod, there's more than one way of skinning a rat, and I'm nae short of the wit or the intention to do it...

oh my!!! what else have you invented babe?

Neat little thing the Prometheus {as they called it}, burns sawdust pellets {a by product} and gives around 60,000 BTU per hour for about half a crown an hour, clean burning stuff too...

But the first one was fun too... a golf practice net that actually caught and held the ball, even at speeds of 200 ft / second, used for golf at first, so that the golfer could see how good a pattern he was getting, like a dart thrower, he could see every ball held/trapped in the net. Invented that in 1978, and it's still being made, used for all kinds of sports now, including soccer, baseball, cricket, ice hockey, tennis {Arthur Ashe bought 6 of them from me, 28 years ago}, here's a short video on how it works, and how many different sports you can use it for...

So over the years {30 of them now of inventing stuff} I've had a lot of fun and it's kept the wolves from the door, add to that,  it can turn into a lucrative hobby, long as folks pay you that is...
