Someone is selling a cornflake on ebay. It's unique 'cus it doesn't look like Jesus or Elvis etc, but looks remarkably like a cornflake.

Upto £30 so far:

The word "Gullible" cannot be found in any English Dictionary.

It's a good cause though, a Leeds dog charity.

There was a picture of a mince pie went for £5,000 last week, somebody trying to take advantage of their competition hype.

Has anyone seen the Treasure Hunt forum over on eBay? Christmas spirit went straight out of the window, and turned everyone into scavengers. Everybody is crying cheat, and saying things like

Council house tenants shouldn't be allowed to win
newcomers should be banned
eBay are cheating
Broadband users should be handicapped
The clues are too hard
The prizes go too quickly
Yes, the 2 above do contradict each other!

The list goes on. On top of this, people are putting up scam auctions that look like they could be prizes. One guy conned over 150 buyers before he was stopped.

Yes, there are a lot of dogs in leeds. One night out should be enough to prove it.

The correct term is Inuit. Shout out to my north poleing broadbanding friends.

P.S. - When's the next igloo DB convention?

I apologise to those geographically-challenged friends of yours.
