Dil, That is good advice you have just given!

yeah ... wish I had heeded it Fred :-)

I can see a few on here will be very impressed with the EU`s latest brainwave to admit 20 million ( yes 20 million) Asian and African workers into its borders to make up for the declining working population ;-)

The new EU policy was outlined by Franco Frattini, the EU justice commissioner, at a conference of immigration ministers in Portugal yesterday.

He said Europe needed labour, both skilled and unskilled, because of a fall in the population of working age.


I personally blame those who wish to retire .
Work until you drop i say and protect all that is British !! (?)

I thought that all the single blokes who have retired have set up home in Thailand?
Probably just that community getting their own back. So long as it's not just the ladyboys coming over to work. Still. I suppose they aren't ever going to claim benefits of any kind.
Am watching Germany play Wales. Can you tell I am bored?!!!!

You should of course be watching England and Belarus to see top quality footy .

Belarus put together a lovely move to score the equaliser ;-)))

sincerely hope you have a less traumatic year ahead, though don't expect us all not to take the piss out of you, as you really set yourself up!

its a thin line between success and failure...if i'd held my qxl shares 2 months longer i'd had been a millionaire now but then again i could have lost it all again...lessons learnt

Dont put all your eggs in one basket. Spread the risk.
