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 whole business about Clegg saying that he would not accept or vote for student fees is nonsense. Labour would have raised fees as well as the Conservatives. That would have meant no coalition with either party and an instant election. The other alternative was a Conservative minority government held up by the Ulster unionists and some SNPs if they were bribed as they indicated at the time.
The increase in student fees was a good thing. I say that with one son at uni and one going in two years time. They both think the fees are a good thing as well. The scheme is an improvement of Labour's old system as the limit before paying back is much higher and the repayments are less.

Why are so many people leaving the Adven thread? - Not that I have ever used it as am quite happy on here - some might not be happy with me!!!!! Seems strange to see so many new comers - just a question not a criticism.

Don't ask for my help! A homeless man smelling of drink and all sorts asked me for help this morning at Victoria stn. I just pointed out that firstly I was not looking for a conversation and secondly he was homeless

He really did pick on a man of distinction and you really did show him the way of the world you would like your children to inherit.
More and more often you appear to me to be a man of distinction.
Your party needs you.

Ps. A bit like Kitchener, probably for cannon fodder, or a little party tax.

Self inflicted problems of drink. No sympathy. If you want sympathy look in the dictionary. It is between sh*t and syphilis.

3monkies.
They have stopped non blue posters, i.e. non payers, from posting links. They say it's to stop spamming but it's just a scam to get people to pay. Let's hope even more come over.

Oh! fine Acer, I don't pay for money a.m. and have no intention of doing so. If they ever say they will do the same as Adven, I would miss my chats with a few who have helped and given advice over the years but certainly would not pay. Hope money a.m. keeps a happy healthy board/service.

On reflection, I do not think that is going to happen. Chats on here will soon be depleted as we knew them but everything in life is only temporary, sad but true. I would miss dc., debacles with cynic, and junior.

Junior here junior.
Just finished with 1 side of the hedges. Side 2 tomorrow and friday. Its hard graft.
Strange that about advfn I wondered why HTTP was being automatically changed to something else and links couldnt be transfered.
Think they are cutting their own throats though.
All you have to do to get around it is copy the whole article and post it that way. Bollos to CopyWrite.
Thought we had a few new names here and didnt realise why.
Already had a do with one or maybe 2 as I think it may be a double poster.
Anyway they arent bringing their advfn habits over here and ive given them a good rodgering on the FJET thread.
Dont get me wrong if they act like human beings and not advfn animals their will be no problems.
Hope IAN and management are aware.

By the way Money AM established regulars, stick together and help each other if these advfn itinerants get out of control.
Dont forget weve been here for years some of us, some from the very beginning.
In fact I think im unique in a way.
I think im the only poster to get a yellow card when the two yellows and a red and your out was operational.
Anyone else get one??.

I'm sure Ian will be delighted to have more posters over here. There are some really good posters on ADVFN and many of the free threads get spoiled by the nutters. It's not a closed shop here or a question of 'them and us', as far as I'm concerned more debate about specific shares on these threads is welcome.

if they start getting too silly, they will be squelched at the very least, or if warranted, booted out like T-bonehead and MRSI
it will be very sad if this site is allowed to degenerate to the childish and tiresome levels i saw in my 20 minute sojourn at advfn
