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.

REPLACEMENT WINDOWS
Last year, I replaced all the windows in my house with those expensive, double-pane, energy-efficient kind.
Today, I got a call from the contractor who installed them.
He complained that the work had been completed a year ago. and I still hadn't paid for them.
Hellloooo,............just because I'm blonde doesn't mean that I am automatically stupid.
So, I told him just what his fast-talking sales guy told me last year...
.that these windows would pay for themselves in a year.
Helllooooo? It's been a year, so they're paid for, I told him.
There was only silence at the other end of the line, so I finally hung up.
He never called back.
I bet he felt like an idiot.

and in another move, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy were revealed to be plotting a new pact on economic union without consulting Britain or other countries outside of the EU.
They are determined not to give Britain the chance of insisting on powers being handed back from Brussels by negotiating a major new EU treaty.

Germany's original plan was to try to secure agreement among all 27 EU countries for a limited change to the Lisbon Treaty by the end of 2012, making it possible to impose much tighter budget controls over the 17-member Eurozone.
Countries will be forced to submit their budgets for EU approval before they go to national parliaments, will have to sign up to strict new rules on the size of debts and deficits and will be sued for any breach in the European Court of Justice

How daft is this?
Hundreds of millions of pounds of taxpayers cash is to be poured into Africa to help it cope with the impact of climate change.
The 330million handout will be spent over the next four years on schemes to install solar power plants and encouraging investment in low-carbon transport.
One of the main beneficiaries will be South Africa, a country which is prosperous enough to have its own space agency

Its just the same as all the millions we pump into India, another country that has its own space programme (proposed next launch programme approx 4 billion) and nuclear industry.
We are still trying to play the 'rich uncle' to the old colonial world.
Cameron is getting just as bad as the last lot, in spending Our Money.
Did you also see the Taliban receive 100 a month for not fighting.
What a great idea. Perhaps we could expand this idea to nearer home.
How about having a tariff for known UK criminals.
Perhaps 100 per week for low level crime thefts and the like, 200 per week for burglaries and assaults, with say 300 to armed robers, rapists, with a top rate of 500 per week to terrorists. All the above of course would be on condition that they did not re-offend (means don't get caught).
They would have to give their word, cross their fingers and hope to die etc.
Just think of the grief this would save, would be victims.
I appreciate the above paragraph is diabolically ridiculous, but where in truth is the difference.
Who says, Crime don't pay!
