          I reckon if you earn a grand a day you could manage it. Is that what you're on ?
          Not quite a grand a day and also you can't plan to be in contract every month, but I'm not really starting from 0. So I'm not quite planning for £1m either! Everyone has their price for retirement. Some want the fast cars and rolex watches, but I'm happy in other ways (a £16 cardigan from Next, oh yeah).

          But dont get me wrong, a million would be nice... come on you premium bonds.

            Are you sure he is of legal age to work and that this isn't just some "cool" fantasy he's having here ?

              Aye. He's probably a pre-op transexual as well.

                      You're not one of these New Labour types who believes everyone is equal in abilities, qualities and talents, are you?
