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.

Off hand, what is the recess time of this government in a period of self induced recession.

Surely they pay packets, expensed and paid "holidays" should be reduced.

Perhaps, they might find time to scrap the Peers.

Forgot, that it is the holiday home for failed Lords and Lady with nowhere else to go.

N,

Don't worry it is only 3 more days before France accepts me to her bosoms.

Holiday's

Now what about those Holiday's the teacher's have [ of course they spend most of the time going to conferences and preparing for next term's lesson's ] Do they ?

Very slightly!

UK Pound Sterling vs Euro Forex Chart

.

Ther chart suggests that Cameron's policies may be working as far as the rest of the world is concerned.

N.

I exchanged Euros for Sterling a few years ago with the Company which then went burst.

For few days before I received the Euros I was cursing myself for being greedy and although I was very sceptical suspicious of the rate being offered.

I was cursing myself and recalculating the holiday costs.

The rate was good and I still have sufficient for this trip.

Generally, I have been lucky, my wife says too lucky, but she says she is working on it!

.

Just wonder, if by the time I return from France, that governing bodies will think and consider the consequences of the decisions they make, or new policies they propose, rather than having to retreat from their ill-considered "decisions" at a later date and then trying to blame the opposition for them.

Imagine this present inept lot leading Britain in WW2.

Frightening!

No wonder the Murdoch media and Business have deserted them.

Must be strange for some of them, to experience a hostile and critical press.

H,

Consider the Exchange as a flee for money.

Austerity may protect the "value" of a "currency", but does little for stimulus of the economy.

Devaluation, may give the stimulus needed and allow a small period time to "reorganise" and increase "efficiencies" or lower costs of "production".

The markets, were sympathetic to the French election results, but not the Greeks.

The markets aren't sympathetic to the French results. They are just waiting to see what the consequences will be.

H.

You are developing the same faults are your party masters.

I apologise for calling it a U-turn government.

I should have said cover up government.

They must have taught clinging together and sinking as one, at Eaton. (what was the Eaton boat song?)

Interesting revealing questioning of Coulson at Leveson enquiry.

More to follow.

Fred
You already had the same faults as your party.

H,
