This is awesome. I totally agree on the "I wish I had thought of that!" if this had actually worked (though it would be safer as a scam for two people, I mean, everyone needs sick days and vacations). I'm afraid it sounds a lot like an internet urban legend though.

That guy is made of awesome! And smart. He didn't charge so much that people would complain. I'm jealous.

For 1/5 quid a time, no-one would ever have queried that. Genius. I hope it's true.

If that's true, it is AMAZING.

If true, that's neat as heck!
