J You don't have the time to read my e-mails but you can read a weighty doorstop like GQ? Or do you just buy it for the pictures? Thanks for the info anyway. This obsession with time and the pursuit of money...did you work on Dark Side of The Moon? Did you meet Dave Gilmour? What was he like? Did these obsessions prevent you going at the weekend to the Olympia exhibition at Phillips de Pury? Are there ANY true Bryan Ferry fans on this newsgroup at all? They were selling thiirty (30) of each of the 10 large portraits for B#3,500 (framed) and three hundred (300) of each of the small portraits for B#840 (framed). Is there REALLY the demand, do you think?

If there was one of each, I could just see that money value. But to produce 300 of each and then expect thousands for each one just shows how wrong I was to throw over my promising hedge fund career in favour of running a donkey sanctuary.
