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.

The article is about the effect of the Eurozone problems. In four years time things should be fine.

Anyone watch Panorama this evening?
Horrified (but not surprised) at the UK's complicity in Libya if true.

DC, lol, it finished nearly an hour ago.
I wouldn't have expected someone of your limited intelligence to have an opinion, stay on the RRL thread.

Just had a thought.
Imagine after Camerons spat with Sarkozy at last Sundays EU finance meeting.
Cameron, "Hi Nick, I suppose you have heard that the Aries are starting to kick off again about the Falklands".
Sarkozy, "Whats that got to do with me".
Cameron, "We have intelligence that they are about to invade the islands again, so we would like to pop over and borrow one of your aircraft carriers.
Sarkozy trying and failing not to laugh, "You have to be joking".
Cameron, "But we have a signed agreement".
Sarkozy, "You think for one minute that the French people would agree to you using one of our carriers".
Cameron, " Okay, I have tried to be nice. If you renegade on the deal, we will take you to the EU committee, and the UN. You should also remember that we came to your aid during two world wars against Germany".
Sarkozy, " Oh that old coconut, that was just a misunderstanding. Our German friends have said they are sorry, so I think you should refrain from mentioning the war".
Cameron, "You mean chestnut, but thats by the by, so you won't help us".
Sarkozy, "Let me put it this way. We would not pisss on you if you were on fire".
Cameron, "If you take that attitude, we will take this to the highest court in the land. Also remember, we have our very close friends the Americans on our side".
Sarkozy ending the call, due to uncontrollable laughter!.
But seriously, can anyone see if push came to shove, the French sticking to the carrier agreement.

Nice to see the tories remain as split as ever.
The remark like a split of bananas.
Sorry like a Banana Split.

Come on boys, if we organise ourselves properly there is enough for all of us and perhaps the rest of the country.

Part-Time London Tent Protesters Revealed
The anti-capitalist protest in London that has caused the closure of St Paul's Cathedral is only sparsely occupied at night, police cameras have revealed.
A police helicopter's thermal imaging camera showed the tent encampment was almost entirely empty overnight.
This has led to accusations that the 300-strong group of protesters are part-timers, going home to warm beds in the evenings to sleep.

The news reports suggest that only1 in 10 actually stay i their tents over night. The rest pop back to their nice houses in Hampstead and Islington. They should remove the empty tents as litter.

Do you blame them.
Dave doesn't live in the HP, and retires to quite a few nice luxury homes, when it seems necessary.
Sometimes he is found hiding on army camps after a protest.
At least it gets the protesters in the news.

These tented protests are just a phase. What will the next one be?

Hear there is more QE going to the Banks.
Why doesn't George legislate for it to go to the real economy, or does he want a scapegoat for failure.
Time for more regulations?

Anyone out there who has been diagnosed with Polymyalgia. I have had it for a year and have been on steriods - was in legs and right arm - now moved nastily to neck with associated headaches,
Would be grateful for any other experiences or advice.

O.
Depending on interests of GP would suggest with your changing symptoms that you are referred "urgently" to a specialist in Rheumatology. for confirmation of diagnosis and review of treatment.
The symptoms can be controlled.
