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.

Exec Line your post 56073 .........no problems as long as you can match my £60 to £74 million pounds worth of assets im all for it.
My first job tomorrow (in the snow 7.30am)is meeting up with a West Yorkshire Water Board official and a ground surveyor from Kirklees council and my companys own surveyor.
We have to go over the sewage and water drains plans at the base of my new high rise flats site. You will need some wellys and heavy health and safety clothing orange transparent. Hope you dont mind heights as we have to go into the structural base of the site which means climbing down (and then back up) at least a 30 metre industrial ladder.
Be prepared for a long day finish about 4.20pm and bring a packed lunch, flask and a disposable urinator.
What do I do then............. go snorkeling looking for crocs in the Thames?.

You're more likely to find crocs in your prospective nuclear bunker than you are to find a disposable urinator at the bottom of a 100ft hole in the ground...how did you dig it as a matter of interest?

The Dunham's don't look very well innocent!
The Dunhams were provided with corporate credit cards after moving from the UK to Maryland then North Carolina.
Between 2002-09, they charged personal expenses to the cards and claimed the money back from Pace, falsely describing the expenditures as business-related.
Among the £1m (£660,000) in losses incurred were mortgage payments on time shares in Barbados, luxury bedding for their home and a dog sofa.

The train crash waiting to happen in new-build property
From Dominic Frisby, in London
Dear premier member, (Millionairs Section)
Dominic Frisby and I read a statistic in the FT yesterday that absolutely blew my mind.
There are now 54,000 homes planned or under construction “in the priciest areas of the capital”.
Most will cost “close to or above the £1m mark” and most are two-bed flats.
Here’s the mind-blowing bit: in the same areas last year, just 3,900 homes were sold for more than £1m.
That would put potential supply at almost 14 times annual demand.
Welcome to the train crash about to happen that is high-end, new-build property in London…

I doubt the detail, especially as most high end property is sold off plan before they build it.

I just love it when gf has one of his fantasies about being worth £70m and building blocks of flats. Maybe he should take up writing short stories. His first book could be called 'Fifty Shades of Nothing'.

shortie - going back to yesterday ...... it's a racing certainty that HMRC will not pay interest and what is even more galling, is that my costs cannot be reclaimed anywhere either

fred - if you choose to pay the taxman what you don't actually have to, then of course that is your choice
