On the other hand, the circumstances that 'Burdekin' describes, while improbable, are not impossible, and it would greatly increase my faith in human nature if he is indeed correct.

Either way, the ad could have been better worded in order to avoid the ambiguity and subsequent doubt. Perhaps we are both simply too cynical, Alan?

Regards, John.
I agree John, I'm more than a little cynical about this one. I'll watch it for a while and think about it, but I'm wondering why some of the 40 photographs were not posted with the ad. A likely explanation is this is bait for an attempt at phishing - to get one's email address and personal details.
