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.

Hays youve shown your true colours today.
I mean an overage Yuppy in the 1980s aged 45 plus throwing his money away on booze and clubs.
Reminds me of DEL BOY in only 'fools and horses' of that similar period.
I look after my wealth and have a very prudent approach and no I dont have a snazy common car, I use a taxi firm on call 24 x 365 days per year on contract.
Little wonder Milliband and co want to go into the City and break it up and get some much needed responsibility into that sector of the economy.

We weren't throwing our money away. We were rewarding our staff for their hard work.

Miliband won't break up the City. We wouldn't dare because of the harm it would do. Labour have always blustered about the City, but have never done anything. The City would not cooperate and they would be stuffed. The City works very well and only an idiot would tamper with it.
ANOTHER STUPID LABOUR POLICY

Nobody will copy Labour's banking plans. Even Vince Cable was complaining about them today.

miliband and the banks
it seems even his own team think it's not too bright a threat either ...... "the party's own shadow business secrtary admitted taxpayers would lose out ..... experts warned that it could trigger a repeat of the doomed attempt by the Co-op to take over hundreds of Lloyds branches"
certain elements here incessantly lambast DC + GO, not that it is not sometimes warranted, but a bit of objective reflection (fossy is totally incapable of such, so ignore him) may well lead to the conclusion that EM and his merry men scarcely represent a troop of knights in shining armour ..... more like a (similar) bunch of Don Quixote and Sancho Panzas

I wonder if someone can give an idea about this: Should someone who lives abroad and is a director of a dormant company should fill tax return?

It is turning out to be quite embarrassing for Labour that one of the executive producers of Benefits Street is a Birmingham Labour activist.

assuming 35596 is accurate, then i find it very amusing
i haven't watched the prog and do not intend to, but if Julia Higginbottom really is closely involved with the production and is also a left-wing labour activist, then you can expect a deafening silence to ensue from certain quarters
it would be jolly to hear a plaintive bleat from Ms JH of "Infamy! Infamy! They've all got it in for me!"

A nun has given birth in Italy after being rushed from her convent to hospital earlier this week with severe stomach cramps.
The woman, originally from El Salvador, said she had no idea she was pregnant after giving birth to a baby boy on Wednesday, local media have reported.
"I did not know I was pregnant. I only felt a stomach pain," Italian news agency ANSA quoted her as saying.
