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.

What I would like to know is the sites which pornographic sites and images Cameron has sourced to be able to form his "moral" opinion.
Also, would like to know is how often he avails himself of those sites.
Seems a little suspicious to me.
I am sure he needs treatment by a psychotherapist for the trauma he has suffered.

I typed in "Tory party news" the other day and one my "filters" came up with a warning notice suggesting "site not fit for human consumption".

Jane Austen to be face of the Bank of England £10 note
Author Jane Austen is to feature on the next £10 note, the Bank of England says, avoiding a long-term absence of women represented on banknotes.
The Pride and Prejudice author will be the next face of the note, replacing Charles Darwin, probably in 2017.
In April, the Bank said that the image of Sir Winston Churchill would be put on the £5 note from 2016.

The vast North-South divide has been laid bare by new statistics showing that those born in Dorset live more than nine years longer than those in Blackpool.
The new report from the Office for National Statistics, stated: "The gap between the local areas with the highest and lowest life expectancy was wider for males than for females but there was no significant change in this inequality between 2005-07 and 2009-11.
"The distribution of life expectancy across England was characterised by a north-south divide, with people in local areas in the north generally living shorter lives than those in the south."
East Dorset has the highest average life expectancy for both men and women, the figures show.
Men there can expect to live to 83, 9.2 years more than men in Blackpool, Lancashire, which had the lowest male life expectancy at 73.8 years.
East Dorset had a life expectancy for women of 86.4 years, 7.1 years more than the lowest, the 79.3 year life expectancy in Manchester

Ballsup has all the answers to our economic problems now, what a pity he didn't have a clue when he was in a position to do something about it.

They are so shocked by the improving economy and increased optimism that they have been struck dumb and unable to type.
Ed Balls was amusing on the BBC today. He said he was pleased that the economy is improving, but that it should have happened 3 years ago. I hadn't realised that he was changing career to a stand up comedian.

There is no response necessary to those who are deluded enough to thinking the cons Cameron and osborne have any responsibility for a minimal economic improvement after a three year period of the strangulation of the economy.
By the way what is the National Debt.
When does hyperinflation kick in.
What is true GDP compared with 2010.
False dawn comes to mind.

Only just got in, but notice the market doesn't think much of the recovery.
