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.

Oh thanks Dil , i didn't think there was a problem with Asian's just a lot of them , but there is a Somali quarter in Manchester apparently . ( bbc news )

Queen speech for the 21th June ( Summer solstice day )

The State Opening of Parliament and Queen's Speech will take place next Wednesday, Commons leader Andrea Leadsom has announced.

It had been due to take place on Monday, but was delayed by Theresa May's efforts to strike a deal with the DUP to back a minority government.

The Queen will read out a prepared speech on Mrs May's plans for new laws.
It is expected to be a slimmed down programme after the PM lost her majority in the general election

IN THE 1960 I WAS A STEAL ERECTOR AND CLADDER I worked for a company from America based in ellesmere port . all cladding if doubled walled had none burning insulation between the walls no gaps it was illegal and always checked to see insulation was their in place , on all power stations ,

today its all about profit not quality , you only ever see today on food or white goods price not quality

The fixing rails for the cladding could be fixed vertically or horizontally.

In the event of a cladding fire, then horizontal rails would be better at preventing a funnel effect.

Obviously, the fire would rage more easily if the rails were vertical with its potential for a better funnel effect.

A raging fire would give much higher temperatures and would also require the spec' for the cladding to be higher so as to better withstand it.

Apparently the fundamental reason the fire spread so quickly on the "outside" was because the corners were not filled properly as they should haver been so the wind just spread the fire as it did.

Shoddy and cheap workmanship again.

yes just looked at over 46 products no mention of quality just price , you will not be us on price but it may kill you

cynic likes to use cheap labour he posts it quite a lot.
if I want a good job done I employ the correct people to do the job not some on
who has just arrived with no papers , or forged papers ,

you get what you pay for me I want first class tradesmen not muppets

just to let people of cleaning cars today the PAINT IS NOW WATER BASED YOU SHOULD NEVER USE A POWER WASHER ON THE CAR IT WILL DESTROY THE PAINT ,

...Someone mention Muppets?

The daily bugle have done quite a good job for once.

Burstcoin: 3,700%
Viacoin: 4,837%
Monero: 3,015%
PivX: 23,525%
NeosCoin: 8,136%

Ever heard of these things? They are all called 'cryptocurrencies'

The above are the growth rates from May 17 2016 – May 17 2017

£500 invested in each of the biggest 5 cryptocurrences would have returned a profit of £21,000 before tax.

Here's a few more of them:

Since January 2017:-

Golem: 728%
Neoscoin: 3298%
PivX: 23,525%
Dash: 1056%
MaidSafeCoin: 17%

StorJcoin: 870%
Potcoin: 9921%
NAV Coin: 5535%
Synero: 379%
StellarLumens: 2411%

They seem to be massively volatile and there appears to be a 'Mania' going on with them! These are 'digital currencies' and they aren't going to stop. Here's a web site which follows their Market Caps and Charts:

The 'Tipsters' are shoving them at the punters (and probably making a mint in doing it).

Obviously some are going to 'drop dead' and some are going to go on well into the
future.

Here are the 24 hour 'Gainers':

Q. Anybody on here know anything about them or got any 'Cryptos' in their portfolio?

Anyone on here know a young lady who might want a £50k per year job?

Don't you just love the good old USA?

This new bill adds a laundry list of offenses for which they can legally seize your assets… all of which pertain to money laundering and other financial crimes.

And, because of the current extradition set-up between the UK and the USA, it's probably pertinent to non-US citizens visiting the USA on vacation.

From your link above, I just love the one:

Here’s the thing, though: they’ve also vastly expanded on the definition of such ‘financial crimes’, including failure to fill out a form if you happen to be transporting more than $10,000 worth of ‘monetary instruments’.

Civil Asset Forfeiture rules allow the government to take whatever they want from you, without a trial or any due process.

I always remember coming home from the USA one time when we used 'Kerb-Side Check In' at the airport. The 'Valet-style' bloke who took our luggage and tickets didn't ask us for our Immigration Cards and we didn't think to hand them into him. Accordingly we returned to the UK with them still in our possession.

Of course, not having ever checked out of the USA from a 'paperwork viewpoint', technically we were still in the USA, and undoubtedly also technically exceeding the 'allowed stay period of 6 months'.

Anyhow, we duly sent them on to the airline concerned for them to process the cards but we didn't ever get any confirmation it had been done. They just might have been 'binned' for all we know.

There is no legal requirement for the airline to collect these cards and if you happen to be, say asleep in the middle of the night when they come down the plane asking for them, then you would not be able to hand them in.

Having already had a taste of 'USA bureaucracy', I don't much want to experience it again. Even the last cruise ship I went on which was calling in at a USA port, was kept waiting 9 fucking hours at the quay-side, processing all of the passengers paperwork. It was a SAGA cruise ship. They rarely go to the USA these days, if at all. They can't stand them either!

I do but your link doesn't work!

What defines a ‘monetary instrument’?


Would a credit card fit the bill?

It works for me. But here's the URL address for you, just in case:
