    Dragons' Den - Sep 1st

    So I'm trying to decide the best moment I think my hat goes off to the rich brother and sister looking for 50k I think for their arty auction website.

    Peter J " Does it bother you that you've spent four hundred thousand pounds of your parents inheritance?"

    Rich boy "Not a bit"

    Peter J "You scare the hell out of me, I'm out"
    "Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark Twain

    Was a good one last night. Bannatyne had a good old rant at the greenies who make recycled boxes, accusing them of being on a crusade. After all that Peter J et al went and gave them the money

      That was good - but I preferred the property developer who had invested £400k and was looking for £150k - but admitted to Theo he still had £200k+ in the bank!

      To be fair sometimes people come looking for expertise/contacts - but this did not seem one of those.

        I think thats why he was there, he just didn't make it clear.
        He wanted to go national with a product, he had the cash but wanted some proper advice

        looks like he's done it anyway:

            The ex-DJ ex-"expensive habit" bloke from the green box duo was interesting. I don't wish to sound cruel, but I just bet that some of the smaller boxes they make will end up with a light dusting of white powder sooner, or later, Sooner, actually. You read it here first.

                  PJ and Bannatyne are rivals (like OS and me!), even worse Bannatyne hates him, I believe they have accused each other in their books of wearing a wig or something stupid. PJ usually does deals with Theo Paphitis and Khan with Deborah.

                    PJ: Dyes his hair and has 1 testicle.
                    Theo: Actually a grecian transexual, wanted in 7 countries for "acts with an animal".
                    Deborah: A man... no surprises there.
                    Duncan: His head is false, and he eats live rabbits.
                    The boring one with the beard: An only twin with a secret nose under his left armpit.
