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.

hi jimmy and stan ...... do hope the pair of you haven't just been wasting your time on this thread, but have actually followed my advice re DOW

"are you Fred with a different name ?"

Snap JB..I was just thinking the same way about you being Alf.

Iv'e traded FTSE today cynic long and short .

I can't speak for Tanks Alf, but i've been doing both -):

I hope you didn't have to do much washing up to do.

certainly had a good time trading DOW and am equally glad that i cashed in ANTO for a decent profit

LOL TANK, you say it as it is old son! :0)

CC's turned up now.. we only want H/S and we have a full house

Regarding Assange, he has not been charged with any offences. the case was looked at by a Swedish prosecutor and it was found that there was no case to answer. He was told that he was free to leave Sweden, which he did and came to the UK. A Swedish politician had the case referred to a different prosecutor in another jurisdiction. The new prosecutor then looked at the case and asked to interview Assange.

Assange suggested the prosecutor or police come to the UK to interview him. They did not want to and issued a European Arrest Warrant which Assange fought in court. When he lost, he entered the Ecuadorian embassy. He is still available to be interviewed at any time, but the Swedish authorities have declined to speak to him.

It has now been found that the arrest warrant had faults in it and would be invalid now. A similar warrant now would fail, but the original warrant cannot be ignored respectively.

The supposed crimes were not offences that you could be arrested for in the UK. We would not regard them as rape. The whole thing is a political stitch up. The arrest warrant is only to interview him.

Oh brilliant.. you couldn't make it up

Stan is clearly Fred's alter ego. Mind you, it is quite possible that Fred is really Corbyn. Stan=Fred=Corbyn! now that's a equation that seems to fit.

H/S obviously pining for you know who.

Does Fred support Burnley as well?

I'll let Fred answer that -):

Stan

Don't tell them it's me ,OH TO LATE

SHORTEST SPEECH EVER - Vladimir Putin on Muslims and Sharia Law :

On August 04, 2015, Vladimir Putin, the Russian president, addressed the Duma (Russian Parliament), and gave a speech about the tensions with minorities in Russia:

In Russia, live like Russians. Any minority, from anywhere, if it wants to live in Russia, to work and eat in Russia, it should speak Russian, and should respect the Russian laws. If they prefer Sharia Law, and live the life of Muslim's then we advise them to go to those places where that's the state law.
Russia does not need Muslim minorities. Minorities need Russia, and we will not grant them special privileges, or try to change our laws to fit their desires, no matter how loud they yell 'discrimination'. We will not tolerate disrespect of our Russian culture.

We better learn from the suicides of America, England, Holland and France, if we are to survive as a nation. The Muslims are taking over those countries and they will not take over Russia. The Russian customs and traditions are not compatible with the lack of culture or the primitive ways of Sharia Law and Muslims.
When this honorable legislative body thinks of creating new laws, it should have in mind the Russian national interest first, observing that the Muslims Minorities Are Not Russians.

The politicians in the Duma gave Putin a five minute standing ovation.

A move to Russia then James?.. don't do it -):

What's the weather like around your way today then?

here it's blowing hard but no rain

Blowing hard here as well and heavy rain.

stan is fred
