Well at least he looks like he's learnt his lesson, slap wrist, now don't do it again.

looks like the judge new the guys for him to say "it was completely out of character"

At least they should get a better return on their investment with all the free publicity.

I'll have a quick look on ebay tonight before the prices sky rocket,,,,,
