>>>>> FIRST EUROPE LOTTERY MILLIONAIRE <<<<<
The good thing about gambling online is that it's easy to do. You don't
have to lift a finger (accept to click the mouse). We've seen so many
'win a million' sites over the years and it's only now that Europe has
it's first proper winner. Ian White, 58 from Essex, UK won £1million on
thedailydraw.com. 'I always thought I'd win a lot of money'... says Ian
as he contemplates retiring to Spain. See Ian's photo and talk about this
news item by clicking below.

As much as we like smoking, we were still pleased to hear that UK cigarette
advertising is to be outlawed at the end of this year. This will hopefully
put the death nail into cigarette companies at last... rather than into
you and me. What d'you think about that then? Click below.

>>>>> PETER KAYE BOY BAND - STILL HOPE! <<<<<
Last December Ananova reported the creation of a pop band called 'Fat
Boy Five'. The brainchild of Dunstable entrepreneur Ross Homswroth - we
got in touch. 'I'm afraid that due to the lack of interest from overweight
people, the project was put on hold for a while. There were only 2 applicants'
. We suggested a celebrity band with say Chris Moyles, Venessa Feltz and
Jo Brand (both on lead vocals), Johnny Vegas and Peter Kaye. With this
kind of imagination would he consider bringing it back to life? 'Yes,
I would resurrect it if I got the interest and the backing of the media'.
Says Ross.

ALL BUBBLE - NO SQUEEK <<<<<
Remember Bubble. From Big Brother 2. We logged on to his website. Poor
old bubble. His social calendar was totally empty. 'no events planned
for this month'. 'nothing to look forward to'. We got in touch...
Dear Bubble
-----------
Hi, My name's Dave and I organise events for our village hall in Chichester.
I was a huge fan of Bubble when he appeared in Big Brother. I was wondering
what he was up to nowadays and whether he does appearances of any kind.
If so, I'd like to ask a small favour. Would he consider showing as a
celebrity guest at our 'save the children' fund-raising event in our village
next month. I think our locals really took him to heart out of all the
contestants on the show. As you may understand, we do not have a lot of
funds, but may be able to make a small contribution to his costs. I hope
he's not too busy. Yours, Dave.

Wrap
-----------
Pop 'virtual' bubble wrap through your web browser. It's rather slow to
load, but you must have all the time in the world if you actually choose
to visit this site. Strangely addictive.

Online
Rock Band
-----------------
This is brilliant. Loud Guitars, Horns, Keyboards, Backgrounds, Lights
and loads more. From the creators of Dancing Paul. Make it loud.

Tubjaxx
-------
The magazine for lazy and opinionated people. We spoke to the editor,
Conor: 'I live in Dublin, and so do the other two or three founders/staff.
The contributors are all over though, we've got folks from mostly Ireland,
England and America writing for us at the moment. Constantly trying to
drum up more though...". Take a peek.
