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.

Skinny,

I am getting very annoyed with posts such as 'Greeks in denial'.

Its lies, I tell you all lies.
Its propaganda by the EU (German) machine.
We are not, never have been and never will be in denial.
You will be saying next that we are all paranoid.

In fact we are being very clever and it is actually the Greeks that are conning the rest of the EU.

We want the Euro to fail, as while other countries have been buying our bonds (no Greek can understand why, as we wouldn't touch them with a barge pole) we have been withdrawing as much as we can out of our banks and either stashing it under our mattresses or buying German bonds (a far better deal than buying our own, which are about as good an ivestment as buying dead ferrets).
When the Euro fails, we will then wait till our revived currency, the Drachma finds it own level on the money markets, dropping so low it will force the EU zone to support the exchange rate, making the Drachma stronger than the pre Euro close rate.
This will happen within days.
That is when we will flood the international markets via the supported exchange rate with all the Drachmae that we kept stashed, just waiting for this day to come.

To make our master plan work, all we want is a few more Zillion Euros to be put into our country, as every Euro put into this bottomless hole will when we refuse to pay it back, make all the EU countries poorer except ourselves of course as we will still have the money, as we are not really spending it, just cooking the books to make it look like we are, a bit like our income tax returns.

We know who the mugs really are.

Greek - take your pick :-)

I go for Jennifer Aniston over a dead ferret any day.

Mind you, as I have now lived in Yorkshire for most of my life, if it came to J A and a nice young sheep?
One reason why I moved to Yorkshire, those Greek goats can't half move.

Enough, enough of this frivolity, I must get back to planning the destruction of the EU!

sky news on about food takeways killing our children with SALT

I would ban salt for some "people".

Greek - in your analogy above, you assumed that all European are stupid enough to pay Greek any further even if Greek does not meet the criteria set by the EU.

I think some of you Greeks wither slept too much and dreaming or in denial.

Hi Ahoj,

Actually I am not Greek, I just love the country, the culture and language and if it wasn't for family, I would live there.
It is not the people that are stupid enough to pay Greece any further even if Greece does not meet the criteria set by the EU, its the politicians.
And that is what has been happening for several bail outs now, as the bail out agreements continue to be re-written.

My previous post was 100% tongue in cheek. And yes, I agree that the Greeks are very in denial

David Cameron was visiting a Glasgow primary school and the class was in the middle of a discussion related to words and their meanings.

The teacher asked Mr Cameron if he would like to lead the discussion on the word 'Tragedy'.


So our illustrious leader asked the class for an example of a 'Tragedy'


A little boy stood up and offered: 'If my best friend, who lives on a farm, is playing in the field and a tractor runs over him and kills him, that would be a tragedy.'


'Incorrect,' said Cameron. 'That would be an accident.'


A little girl raised her hand: 'If a school bus carrying fifty children drove over a cliff, killing everybody inside, that would be a tragedy.'


'I'm afraid not', explained Cameron, 'that's what we would refer to as a great loss'.


The room went silent. No other children volunteered. Cameron searched the room.


'Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?'


Finally, at the back of the room, little Johnny raised his hand and said, 'If a plane carrying you and Mr. Clegg and Mr. Milliband was struck by a 'friendly fire' missile and blown to smithereens, that would be a tragedy.'


'Fantastic' exclaimed Cameron, 'and can you tell me why that would be a tragedy?'


'Well', said Johnny, 'it has to be a tragedy, because it certainly wouldn't be a great loss, and it probably wouldn't be a f**king accident either!'






I'll get me coat.

8-), 8-)

made me laugh... nice Skinny

We seem to have a consensus on here ... at the moment -):

It is more amusing than the Leveson enquiry.

Listening to the "evidence", I had to look to see how many of the participants had their trouser legs rolled up!

Top bloke - no messing!
