let us know, and we'll decide whether to invest in it.
I would invent boots which heat up, like an electric blanket, to save my poor cold feet as the winter days arrive.

From the Archive - Prefuse 73: "If it was up to me, I wouldn't tour at all"
I'll put the money up for those
but I have to insist on 50% of the company.
Something
involving naked women, alcohol, pies and laser guns. I'll give you further details later.
I'll put up the money for that
but I have to insist on 100% of the company.
Present company
excluded?
After that effort
I'm surprised you even have to ask.
ill put up the other 50
but i refuse to work with colonol_k, and i want 51% of the company, and a cake
tolerance, decency
and the innocence of a new-born lamb
Tobacco, larceny
and plain old piany singalongs
And no, there are no typos round this here thread
I'd invest in that.
Cold Feet pisses me off more than world hunger does, tenfold.
I'd bring an action figure of that really nice presenter. It'd be all rubbery, and has a huge grin on its face. Pull its string and it says,
"But will the Dragons like her idea?"
"With 3 Dragons already out, will John be able to convince Duncan Vanatime (or something) that his board game is worth investing in?"
Yeah.
That James Nesbitt guy is a wanker.
a griddle pan
that had concave and convex (?? - is it convex, sticking out anyways) sections so sausages would cook evenly without having to squash and split.
Could also be used for bananas
a hangover cure
obviously.
x
a grill
with two hotplates which plugs into a socket in a wall
the wheel
fire
sliced bread
steam locomotive
Richard the Lionheart
and I'd slay those bastard dragons. I think I might of mentioned the wrong name for the myth though:(
St George!
I do a history degree aswell.
And I did an essay about the Richard in the third crusade, I am such a loser.
A fire-wheel
that slices bread.
good but mine
would slice AND TOAST, and butter too
Mine would do that
AND hoover up the crumbs/wipe the peanut butter from your face.
Ah, but what happens
if you weren't eating peanut butter?
It scolds you (verbally
and physicall)
*y
if it was a fire wheel
it could SCALD you too, and make tea for accompaniment to your toast
a chair
with a built in gym, which is really poorly made, and is so poorly styled my grandad would laugh at it
they broke that poor man's heart!
I'd bring
the date that those wankers are to be exterminated.
id
bring some sort of desk/table which has an inbuilt slot to safely put your laptop in, so you can use it and keep it securely locked up. i really haven thought through or how this would work.
but i predict 1st year sales to be at 20,000 units then continueing to go up at 20% year on year. i value the company at 3 million. and i am asking 200,000 to design and make the unit for 10% of the company.
....
Porn tissues. Tissues with porn on them.
think on.
a robot
that lives as a human, and has human emotions. One that can breed at will.
That series failed
We were updated
a toaster
which toasts the toast like so that one slice finishes before the other, so that you can butter your toast whilst its still warm.
And how many of these have you sold in the last two years?
*gives stern face which makes me almost look constipated*
I'd bring some sort of portable grill
Which allows fat to simply drip off, you wouldn't need to watch the food just close the lid set a timer and wait. I already have a celebrity willing to put his name on the product aswell.
George Formby?
six million
.
Perhaps some kind of death clock.
haha
POTD ^
two seater mobillity scooters
for elderly couples who like to cruise the pavements side by side
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity...
What I have revealed before your eyes are the latest in camel dancing technology.
By using special disco lasers which have been patented by me, this contraption when fired at a camel within 10 metres will cause the camel to relax and dance, thus taming the camel as well as making it the centrepiece of any party.
There is a special port to allow you to connect an MP3 player so that you can play any tune through it and the camel shall dance.
Allow me to demonstrate with Humphrey here. As you may have guessed, this is Stabbed in the Face by Wolf Eyes. Look how the Camel moves, slightly unsure perhaps what is being played but it recognises something there and is moving to it.
OK then, enough of that, I am also developing special attachments so that you will be able to use this amazing machine on Hedgehogs and Blue Tits.
Well then, I am asking for £100,000 and in return I shall give you a 20% stake in the company, any questions then?
have you done any market research?
what is the demand like for dancing camels?
Right now, huge.
MTV are very interested in this technology.
Also, this is top secret but the Relaunch of Top of the Pops will have a dance troupe of Camels dancing along to all the songs, it's like Pans People but brought up to date.
I imagine as well that any discerning person would love to have a dancing camel, you must admit that by watching Humphrey gyrate here you must be feeling better already!
Also if you choose a female camel then you will also be able to drink camels milk which is very agreeable.
This wonderful device shall be retailed at £49.99 meaning that it would make the perfect gift for birthdays and christmas.
is the camel provided?
im willing to invest £1 for a 49% share of the company
The camel...
is provided in the 'deluxe' edition gift box set which includes the device and a baby camel. This shall market at £74.99.
And frankly, I'm going to have to refuse your offer.
can we have a demonstration of the blue tit feature?
Right, well the blue tit device is still at the prototype stage but here goes...
*elcetrifies blue tit*
Hmmmm, lets try again, oh here we are, this blue tit is boogieing away to Napalm Death's 'You Suffer'. Look at the delgiht in it's eyes!
This attachment shall appeal to people who live in flats and appartments and are not able to look after a camel. We predict that this device shall be the number one Christmas best seller.
well it sounds like you're on to a winner
i think the camels are a bit cumbersome, people like small things like ipods nowadays. Is the blue tit pocket sized?
Yes it is.
Just a small layer of straw inside your pocket will provide the optimum habitat for the blue tit to dance away happily.
i'm very happy to offer
£10000000 for a 50% stake, as long as you rename them iTits.
Done and Done.
I graciosuly accept your offer.
Now lets take over the world business buddy.
*graciously
a gun
a pen
their chequebooks
And how...
would you bring their chequebooks to the Dragons Den?
if they didn't have them on them
i'd just shoot them in the throat
Don't forget...
a giant bag marked "SWAG" to steal those piles of money in front of them.
I'd go along with the spirit of the show and invent a giant awesome hoover to suck their money up if they didn't like my idea.
.
You'd have to shoot them in the throat after they'd signed the cheques too, so they wouldn't be able to phone the bank to cancel the cheques.
well, DUH.
it's not like i'd leave them injury free.
Not very original

Must try harder.
I was going to finish that post with
"This link will almost certainly not work"
Think of this as an appendage of sorts.
i would bring music
without music, the world would be a terrible, terrible place.
I'll give you £10
for a 51% stake in music. I think this music lark could catch on...
