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.

Max the article says this........"Hundreds of thousands of children are currently growing up in social housing in London who will never be able to afford to live here when they have families of their own".ENDS.................... not sure I get your point?.

it's in the article gf.
"Yet to hear the debate about London’s housing problems you would think the problem only affects ‘young professionals’ hoping to get on the housing ladder. It is as if the rest of us – millions of us – do not exist. The people who built this city, clean it, drive the buses and look after its children are being quietly abandoned with no thought at all to our lives, housing needs or futures."

MAX.
It is because the streets are paved with gold.
(Fool's gold.)

The attraction of London is the hope of a job and if an immigrant without contacts the only named town they know.
Also it is only 70 odd miles to Dover etc..
-----------------
Another problem is that government institutions and employment is are situated in London, although some of the "civil service" has been distributed elsewhere.
The primary attraction was some years ago London weighting and the search by the young and affluent for the "glamour" of London.
But probably London will implode, especially if the is another economic "crash".
Happy days.

Four women have had new vaginas grown in the laboratory and implanted by doctors in the US.
A tissue sample and a biodegradable scaffold were used to grow vaginas in the right size and shape for each woman as well as being a tissue match.
They all reported normal levels of "desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction" and painless intercourse.
So that's nice then.

Balerboy,
Yes.
I have an old American Allegro with which I tend to use less than previous and generally stick to France in Spring and Summer.
Good relaxed fun!
