The main house on Richard Branson's island was hit by lightning last night at 4am and burnt down! Randomly his mum was carried to safety by Kate Winslet who was staying there at the time...!

unless you're a born again virgin.... then you can claim twice.... look at the fine print, it's right there!

Branson has some pretty sick parties on his boat moared in spot "X"... it has a multi level under water deck. It's amazing. whats more amazing is what happens down there.
