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.

I've just bought some 1st class stamps from Superdrug. They are selling them with a 5% discount - plus of course the saving on the impending increase.

It took approximately 13 years for the public and media to turn against the Labour government.
Congratulation to Dodgy Dave and Pasty George, they have managed to do it within their first two.
Haven't heard so many people saying it is time for them to go.
Economic figures support the call for resignation of this incompetent inept elitist hierarchy.
Only problem I see the alternative of Labour is only marginally better.
===============
I don't intend to be ageist, but would like to see a few more individuals at the head of various political parties with more grey hair, experience and political louse than is showing at present.
They may think a little ahead of the game and have longer term views and not grab at headlines and dither so much.

Pesticides hit queen bee numbers
Some of the world's most commonly used pesticides are killing bees by damaging their ability to navigate and reducing numbers of queens, research suggests.
Scientific groups in the UK and France studied the effects of neonicotinoids, which are used in more than 100 nations on farm crops and in gardens.
The UK team found the pesticides caused an 85% drop in queen production.
