Does that mean we can take legal action against her when this happens:

Well she obviously hasn't thought it through properly (OI! it's a bit cloudy, it's your sun, sort it out etc etc) but there is a certain mad genius to it lol - and she does only plan to keep 10% of the money after all

I got sun burn last year so I'm suing her for that and any future expenses incurred from buying sun block. Watch out for anyone with skin cancer, could cost her millions.

I guess they put something 'special' in the wine in that region of Spain??

They had this on HIGNFY last night. They suggested she has to spend 3 years resident there to validate her claim to it....

It's technically a breach of international law to Claim ownership of the Sun or the Moon. Nato and the Warsaw Pact made an agreement about it which I believe was ratified by the EU so technically this woman could be arrested.
