I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland
I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate
All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach
Time for tea.

The two most telling points are:

1/ It could be substituted by a reproduction at no loss in value.

2/ A hedge fund manager, no less, paid £6.5 million for it.

Both show up the total idiocy of these blinkered morons.

PS: Why don't they read a 4,000 year old papyrus?
