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, correct on the money printing post. It's OK for government to do it but when I tried the law wasn't as understanding! Anyway with all this new money being printed and the markets being manipulated with Brexit scaremongering it's no surprise the strength of the dollar. So when Brexit fizzles out to nothing and money flows back over the pond, the dollar will surely crash sending US indices into orbit!

Taking the P!SS alright

What about "hiring" Mr Steel to get a dirty dossier on Merkel, another "so call dirty bitch" looking for trouble after she was the one starting it with the refugees and now all Europe on alert for her bad call ( and it was not in shares ).

Maybe a Tunisian man would me more efficient in creating chaos in her country.


Merkel says EU 27 must show united front in Brexit talks

LUXEMBOURG, Jan 12 (Reuters) - The 27 members of the European Union negotiating with London on Britain's exit from the bloc must stick together and not allow themselves to be divided, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Thursday.

Merkel, speaking against the background of a planned reduction in corporation tax in Britain, also said EU members must agree on a joint approach to corporation tax.

"We all know that we need more harmonisation," she told a joint news conference with Luxembourg's Prime Minister Xavier Bettel.

Refering to Britain's decision to leave the EU and what looks like being a difficult and complex negotiating process on the divorce terms, Merkel said: "It is important that we do not allow ourselves to be divided, the 27 must act together in the negotiations.".......

Anyone else had the good news?

i renewed mine about 6 weeks ago .... can't remember what spiffing deal i got

The idea is to swap from your present deal to the next deal - BEFORE it expires and the present supplier puts you on its usually very expensive Standard Tariff - because your present deal has expired.

It's generally called: Taking some personal responsibility for your shit.

I have swapped 4 times in recent years. Now with First Utility

Snowing in London for last hour

EL

I'm not sure what you are talking about...do you?

Oh my god a snowflake in London , army will be on the streets by noon.

It's so funny watching London trying to cope with what many parts of the country have to cope with numerous times each winter.

Bet it's the lead story on the BBC news channel too !

Haystack , snowed on and off for over 12 hours here since yesterday lunchtime.

Took me an hour and a half to get out of Guildford last night! I've never had an energy deal, with BG for both so probably paying through the nose for energy.

Only snowed here for about 40 minutes. We coped.

Tristram's resignated

Another Blairite jumping the sinking ship, plus Hunts constituents voted to
LEAVE in the referendum, so looks like he's getting out before he was kicked
out by UKIP in next GE...

He's taken early retirement, even though he's never had a proper job in his life.

O'bama's last betrayal against Israel before he leaves office...

But that WILL change when Trump takes over, to end the islamist expansion
into Israel itself..

Lol , nice one Haystack good job it didn't snow for an hour :-)

Its nice to know we have hardened characters like you in the capital Hays, ready to cope with any emergency. I had to pass through the Peoples Republic of Islington yesterday. My bank is on Islington High Street but I haven't been back in years. Anyhow, at the border I was advised that there is a 20 mph speed limit in all of the republic. First to ever do so it proclaims. For safety's sake. Hardly necessary since my average speed passing through was less than 10 mph. Kamikaze cyclists by the dozen but not a snowflake in sight. Not even Jeremy.

Were they hiding from you?
