Internet forums went ballistic and soon after, he took it down. There was a thread on DS about it at the time, only a few weeks back.
That gives you a measure of this man. Totally self absorbed and up his own arse.

Actually Pyramid the parrot was at a cost of £7800, the site he setup was a charity page on just giving, I never realsed Mario was a charity, I dont remember any apology either when he took it down or statement about refunding any money donated.
