## Resource

Reality TV star Barnes Thomas, known for “The Island,” is facing a staggering £500,000 bill after a court ruled his construction noise killed three prized falcons worth £150,000 each. The High Court blamed his JCB bucket near the falcons’ breeding enclosure, and despite his appeal—where he admitted being “the most hated man” in Cornwall—the Court of Appeal upheld liability, saying he ignored neighbors’ rights. The case, now settled, leaves Thomas and his company fully responsible for the damages. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
