THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

The only person trying to break up the UK is Alex Salmond, whose only concern is his place in the history books.

TANKER - 23 Mar 2012 15:41 - 15752 of 81564

Fred1new - 23 Mar 2012 15:48 - 15753 of 81564

Tanker,

Apologies.

For policies I meant U-turns.

=================
What a mentor to Young tories.

Do they have their garden parties still.

I can remember being dragged along to their parties, tombola and white elephant sales when I was a kid.

Some of the cakes were OK.


Perhaps, they could auction Dave and George effigies.


--------------------------------


(I will provide the pins.)

TANKER - 23 Mar 2012 16:04 - 15754 of 81564

fred off to malta tomorrow so keep smiling

This_is_me - 23 Mar 2012 16:11 - 15755 of 81564

Fred is the fisherman of this thread; he puts bait on his hook with the intention of destroying what he catches.

TANKER - 23 Mar 2012 16:18 - 15756 of 81564

fred makes the day pass with a bit of amusement and it is nice

Fred1new - 23 Mar 2012 16:27 - 15757 of 81564

Tim.

Only fish for Trout and the very occasional Salmon.

But surprised by what I catch sometimes catch with a flier.

Many many years ago, had a friend who used calcium carbide, thought it quicker.

It is quiet for a Sunday.

Bullingdon Club

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

“The symbol of the Bullingdon Club

The Bullingdon Club is a socially exclusive student dining club at Oxford University. The club has no permanent rooms and is notorious for its members' wealth and destructive binges. [1] Membership is by invitation only, and prohibitively expensive for most, given the need to pay for the uniform, dinners and damages.[2]”


I wonder if some can still afford the pleasures they previously partook of. Especially on their depleted salaries while they are now in government.

Not like the drunken beer, lager and drug taking louts on a Friday and Saturday night in the centres of towns.


Mind it seems to me, this government is changing this country into a banana republic, with politically appointed police chiefs and mayors, with the possibility of manipulation from the Cayman Isles



Interesting news about how it is said business now has to pay to influence tory party, or government policies.

(Party funds, depleted?)

Never would have guessed that.


Imagine a dinner with Cameron and Osborne in privacy, doesn’t have much appeal to me.

(I probably would be a waiter. With a little bit of luck could be the Chef.)
I wonder what is on the menu.

-------------------------------------------------

Another interest this weekend for me was the comment by somebody called Maud that he doesn’t pay the highest rate of tax.

(Mind, you are all in it together.)

I think it would be interesting to see the last 5 years of the accounts of the present cabinet and how, or if, they have divested their “incomes” prior and after being elected.

We wouldn’t want tax dodgers in the cabinet, especially with the moral stance of the present PM, and some individuals do seem to have their close dining “friends” in the business world.


Also, I think the sewers in Downing Street should be regularly inspected, as there seems to be a stench of rot and decay coming from there.

PS.

Perhaps, that is where they buried the bodies" !

N.

You are up early for a Sunday.

(Are you saying I should check my medication?)
-------------------

I like a good story line.

(I can see where Jeffrey Archer got his plots from.

Perhaps, he was reflecting on those around him.)

=-----


Mind, it is difficult not to comment, when the "your" party manages to spread itself across the media, especially after their crowing before the last election.


------------

Perhaps, it is Murdoch’s revenge.

(Didn’t he visit by the back door?)






Fred1new - 25 Mar 2012 10:53 - 15763 of 81564

Skinny,

Which kitchen are the drip pans from?

skinny - 25 Mar 2012 11:04 - 15764 of 81564

Chinese Water Torture.

Workers Revolutionary Party

Leaving the Labour Party, the WRP formed the All Trade Unions Alliance, which it wholly controlled. Among its best known policies was the immediate replacement of the police by a workers militia.[1] The party slowly lost members, but one or two member's still meet up for a pie and a pint in the Birmingham area, and can also be seen posting their class war rambling's on Moneyam .

Fred1new - 25 Mar 2012 12:45 - 15767 of 81564

N,

I getting worried.

I think you are catching on.

Bit like mantras.

----------

But we were promised a leader and government which could walk on water!

This lot can even float.

The New Submerged Party is evolving, which blames everybody else for their demise.

--------------

No wonder Scotland are going to have referendum.

Fred1new - 25 Mar 2012 13:04 - 15768 of 81564

Sorry Alds,

Missed you.

Are you proud of your government and its actions?

Sorry latest u-turn of policies.

Back to the Kitchen for another flip flop.

Fred1new - 25 Mar 2012 13:17 - 15769 of 81564

By the way "we are all in it together".

Banks are planning to delay payment of bonuses in order to take advantage of the new 45p tax band announced in the Budget. The plans would see awards covering recent years – due to be paid in March next year – being delayed until April when the 50p top rate of income tax will end. Banks have been paying about £7bn in bonuses every year, but since 2009 they have held back about 40% of the annual payout amid criticism that bankers were getting bonuses for deals that eventually turned sour. Experts say deferred bonuses scheduled to be paid next year are running in ‘the low billions of pounds’, meaning the delay could save bankers about £100m in income tax, The Financial Mail on Sunday says. "

Haystack - 25 Mar 2012 15:29 - 15770 of 81564

Very sensiible. Always better to minimize tax payable. The rate will be coming back down to 40% soon.
