# But it's standard business practise.
everybody sells a piece of themselves in return for growth capital. It's the premise of Dragon's Den.
It does not matter where your investment comes from especially if you can benefit from that investors business know-how and networking.

My only surprise is that it's such a piddling amount I don't really see what it will do for them.

# You know what I'd do with 30 million pounds?
Buy a hat for everyone in the world (well however many you can buy when getting hats wholesale).

And force them to wear it at gunpoint if necessary.

# Baseball caps suck donkey nuts!
It's all about the Trilby and Panamas!

# I have a trilby
but it looks odd on a construction site.

The good thing about baseball caps and beanies is you can keep them in your pocket so that when you take off your bike helmet or hard hat you can quickly cover up any 'helmet hair' with a hat kept in your pocket. (if you currently are not sporting a shaven head )
I have my DeWalt and Kangol hats for work and my Ducati Corse hats for when out riding.

# No, it's a Sony Erricson c902.
I've heard good things and bad things, but so far it seems perfectly serviceable. It also has a 'ring ring' ringtone, which makes me rather happy.

If it wasn't for me, they wouldn't have made a penny.

If you know the story about when they asked people at a fair whether they should go into the business - I was the guy who swapped the bins round when they did the taste test.
