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.

Funeral Expenses
An elderly man and his ever-nagging wife went on vacation in Jerusalem . While they were there, the wife passed away. The undertaker told the husband, "You can have her buried here in the Holy Land for $1500 or we can have her shipped back home for $5000. The husband thought about it and told the undertaker he would have her shipped back home. The undertaker asked him, "why would you spend $5000 to have her shipped home when you could have a beautiful burial here, and it would only cost $1500????" The husband replied, "Long ago, a man died here, was buried here, and three days later, rose from the dead. I Just can't take that chance".

What is happening to the UK economy?
I was told by some on this b.b. before the national election, that Cameron and Osborne were wiz kids and could walk on water, They were voted in in order to solve all our problems not to help the UK to commit suicide.
They sounds more ike they are con artists than saviours.
Mind they are sticking to their policies or U-Turns.
===========
Get rid of them and anoint Bill Cash and John Redwood.
When is the next UK bond sale?
That should prove interesting.

Mind you Fred use's mind a lot in his post's.
Mind they are sticking to their policies or U-Turns.
Mind it is all down to the Eurozone and next week probably Iran.
Mind its not the fault or responsibility. It is everybody's parents who are to blame.
Mind as such a successful international leader and statesman we should ignore his little "weaknesses".

Aids,
I am glad you are paying attention.
Well done.
After you absorb what you observe will come understanding.
Keep on trying.

Bit of good news from Marston's today in amongst the general doom and gloom.
Managed pub development - 19 new-build managed pubs completed with performance ahead of target; on track to complete around 25 new-build sites in 2012.

fred . they is one sure thing we had the good years .
and i also no why the uk as gone down the pan
in the last 10 years and it is fact immigrants are taking all
the benefits and have put nothing in to the uk .
well 97% of them it can not go on if it is alowed to go on.
then the living standards will go back 100 years
i do get around and see this ever where it is sickening .

How does that work Tanks? tax to be payed eventually and we may snuff it in the mean time.
Edit: Pension delay I'm talking about.
D/Ed: That should be "Snuff" it (as corrected) -):

Tanker.
Take your blinkers off and have another look around.
But, if you have a coronary or car accident and end up in A and E, shout what you have just written as you go through the doors.
Also, have a look at the distribution of immigrants in work and their occupations.
Also, check second and third generations of previous immigrants and don't go out for a Asian curry or a Chinese Chow Mein.
