That's pretty, but I can think of other things to spend that kind of money on

Oh gawd, that wasn't Katie 'Jordan' Price and Peter Andre was it? What nightmares they are. They just announced they are seperating and it made the 10 O'Clock News! For Crying out loud! What is the world coming to?

But yes, if I had that kind of money I would buy some nice jewellery, a nice car, a super duper sewing machine and flights to visit everyone from here, buying fabric along the way!

Love diamonds, I admit it!

I'll keep the one I have had forever and buy material instead :lol: :lol: :lol:

I would love to see it though in person and maybe just hold it for awhile!
