CLOSED - THANKS to all customers for the last few years

Thought I'd just pop in and find that there's about 250 more pages since I was in here last time!

Anyway... HELP!!!

I'm in the middle of a rather boring research project on stock indices and I need two things:

1: Daily data on major indices going back to 1900
2: Intraday data on major indices going back as far as possible (at least 25 years)

If anyone can help on that (suggesting sites, or if you've collected the data yourself), then please let me know. And please don't point out the sites that want thousands for each data set! Remember this is a poor student speaking!

Thanks and hello to all old GD's regulars!

Hi JS, nice to see you again.

Hi Socs...
Anything exciting happened since last year?

I bought some new socks!

Well done Socs, I bought a pair in about 2002.

Morning all ... opens the windows at the thought of Spacey's old socks....

Orange juice, croissants et al and coffee brewing, kettle on.

Just had a couple of days in Cheltenham, Socs - warm enough but you could have arranged some sunshine for me though. All looking very nice :-)

Add my Cloggyland connection - used to over winter my boat in Medemblik, Contest based there. Also married in Belgium in Flemish.. always wanted to claim I hadn't understood what was going on but seems that was no defence;-)

Orange juice, tea, croissants, apricot jam and I'll start to feel post-shopping human again, what is it about the end of the week, people shop in droves and indecision is rife along with idiots who can't operate a self-service till - ok rant over, I'm off to read the papers! ;>)

Oh dear, another quiet day. I suppose everyone is doing what "her indoors" is up to, Ladies Day at Ascot. It's OK for some. other poor souls like me have to work for a living.

I think I'll have a raid of the freezer and see if there is anything tasty in there.

Quiet in here.

Any idea where the ash trays are kept?

Keaydian that is a sore point in here, it's a non smoking establishment apart from the smoking room upstairs and the back porch where yours truly tends to nip out for a quiet ciggie when things are quiet, so ashtrays in the main bar I'm afraid are no more, we've gone all politically correct ;>)

Morning bunny,

Keaydian, sorry about the no smoking rule but lambykins hates smoking and he owns the place ;-)

Nice bright and sunny day in Hastings. I am looking forward to the weekend after another boring week at work.

Next week I will be in Hamburg for 3 days, never been there I hear its nice, not that I will see much as it work related....

Spacie
Great time to visit during the world cup

jeff, i know but the match is on 30/6 about 2 hours after i fly out ;-(

I have to pay 400 euros for a hotel room on 29/6 !

Stockbunny, this back porch is quite a nice early evening sun trap!

Morning all, In Sevenoaks today for some painting and decorating so we are ready to have some carpets laid on Monday. Its a bit cold here, feels like early spring..

I told Lambykins he really must tidy the coffee shop up and I reminded him that he had promised a refresh several weeks ago, he looked a bit sheepish and said he would do it soon....

Mrs S has just informed me of a special treat while we are waiting for the paint to dry, yes you guessed it we are going to Ikea and Bluewater...... AGAIN...

Actually I have found a good way of handling Bluewater, go up to first floor, go into Starbucks with newspaper, stay there until Mrs S has finished shopping, then leave.

By the way I have noticed that Mrs S rarely actually buys anything on these shopping trips however on the way home she always tells me about lots of nice things she has seen..... I obviously don't appreciate the finer points of shopping... ;-)

Sounds like you got it cracked Spacie.

I've had the fixer man in today, new modem on my broadband required, installed and running. All in the space of five minutes, the man from Blueyonder he say Yes!

Does this coffee shop have a Wi-Fi hotspot?

Derek, yes of course everywhere we have gigabyte wifi ;-)

Morning all! Bright and sunny here ..

Coffee brewing, kettle on and danish warming!

... and if anyone can get ntlworld webmail to work, that would be just great :-)

pot of tea and a danish for me JJ :>)
Sorry about the webmail, ring 'em up and moan ;>)
