Meister, I think that if the "roll" to Hirst, show off dough, slap him on the shoulder and say: "A Draw me the , my friend, butterflies about thirty ...", then he will send directly behind the polar circle.

The guy long ago a multimillionaire, and therefore can afford to think only about development and do not push the product in the hangars. Also, I've heard, he stopped to lay firmly by the collar (or at least slow down), so count on a deal like that in the unconscious, too, not prihroditsya.

Mad poshodili. With them, little vodka? Everything should be taught? But in general difficult to them in London. I (admittedly, very long time ago) told us that in England a pack of cigarettes cost about 5 pounds - 10 times more expensive than ours. Do not be surprised if in terms of cocaine profitable obtained:)
