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.

must have been a child bride

she was 17 I was 20

Tanker,

I once knew a guy who had similar attitudes to that and was quite proud of having them too.

ie. Never ate 'left overs', never bought second hand goods, lived in a brand new house which was full of brand new stuff. It was totally characterless.

He was a car dealer. So much for never buying second-hand goods, eh? He made a living out of it. We regarded him as being intransigent and insular. Anyhow, he's dead now so what does it matter? He died of 'mostly' only drinking new alcohol. :-)

But for you? Your personal rule 'never buy second goods cast offs not for me only buy new' is, well, insular. It shows a lack of wider thought and is indicative of a poor education.

Even the Queen wears used second hand jewelry. I guess the value of some of it must run into the £ms. People are happy to borrow it from her too.

Buy a brand new car and it immediately depreciates because of the massive amount of VAT and car tax.

Buy a mint condition classic car and it will usually appreciate because of its rareity and perhaps its provenance too. It's the same sort of thing with lots of rare items.

My 'Preloved' web site item has now disappeared from the listings. Looks as though it's been taken down and has maybe been sold elsewhere.

The Ebay item was 'Collection Only'. I haven't yet paid for it - but I do want to arrange things and collect it and pay for it.

I have a new car ever 18/24 months and have for over 25 years then give them away all of them just given away my car on 26th may now have a new one in 3 weeks have done 27 miles can not drink and drive but it keeps the garage warm

bought a mg this time made in the uk

I am surprised that the Mona Lisa is worth so much bearing in minds that it is second hand.

Most MGs are made in China and assembled in UK.

has long has it not german I do not mind stopped using any german products Thomas cook boycotted them and tui
do not go to aldi or liddl
fcuk them and their goods

buy bentley if you ask me :-)

the uk is leaving the stinking rotten EU its going to now break up thank the uk for their great actions

Greece spain Portugal to follow the uk

let the germans stew in the shit they have cocked up

cynic I drove one in spain very nice but I would never spend that sort of money for at the end of the day a piece of tin

You could be right on 90% of that last but one post.

Steel is made of mostly iron. There's not much tin in a Bentley - but I take your point.

spain and Portugal want to convert to the pound if the uk leaves . good info
get ready for the great movements

spain is keen to join forces with the uk

and bentley of course is owned by BMW! ..... or is it VW?

my facebook page as had over 1000 hits today on get us out of the eu gravy train
great response . we are nearly out just have to wait till the 23rd

what will the in campaigner scum now do will they all step down in shame over all their lies

I see lots of stock prices are going down on pretty low volumes.

What will happen to them when we do get the 'OUT' result? More 'down' or a 'levelling out'?

That's when we will also get to see who our 'friends' really are. I don't think France or Germany are. Maybe Spain and Portugal are friends and also Holland, Norway, Sweden Denmark. I'm not sure about Italy, Belgium or Greece

The only country that would be likely to leave the EU after us is Denmark.

i see lots of good news for my index shorts :-))

in the event of an "out" majority, the global markets will crash pretty hard while they try to determine the real effect
picking the point at which to buy will be a matter of faith

at some point prior to the referendum, i will (if i have any sense) close all my current index positions and subsequently re-open in one direction or another with guaranteed stops
