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.

UK - YouGov/Sun poll: CON 32%, LAB 40%, LDEM 10%, UKIP 13%

Cynic yep your right. that nasty Chris Carson is taking over your mantle.

ILL HAVE HIM.

leave him alone you old tart and enjoy my latest FTSE post which is there for your chuckles

OK captain.

The trouble with Yougov is their error rate. Labour has been +6, +5 and +8 on three consecutive days. It is caused by their polling methods as I mentioned some time ago. They are getting online members to vote. The population has been selected by their choice to sign up to the Yougov system in the first place.

marriage tax break who gets the break the man or the women .

How many wickets are England going to lose by?

IF they do, and it's all at an interesting stage, then by less than the number of seats UKIP will win the next election - but then that's almost a "no bet"

I see Cameron is cheating again on the health of the nation's youth for political gain.

Promise after promise.

When will he turn his back on the NHS.

What a creep.

Manuel,

are the mirabelles plums in fruit at the moment with you.

If so, bring me a tart home. (A plum tart.)

far too early, even over here ...... surely they don't come into season (so to speak) for another 6/8 weeks?

Anytime from now - even this year I would think.

I have never seen as many plums on my 2 plum trees as I have this year, they are like large bunches of grapes - heaven knows what I am going to do with them all apart from putting a stall out the front and selling them, obviously I will use what I can. Another 6/8 weeks and Victoria here we come. I will have to get someone to come with a ladder when they are ripe before the wasps get them.

The prolonged cold winters of the past few years have given the fruit trees a real rest -unlike the milder winters of the previous few years - this results in heavier crops.
