I would definitely choose the Chinese themed garage room if I was honoured to be a guest of mee lady.

I've been self employed for 5 years. Income for last 3 years: £0 Benefits claimed: £0 Number of iPhones bought: 0 Attitude to WTC and CTC: incredulous. Even on HPC the concept to WTC and CTC seems to be de-rigeur. They should not exist. They are a symptom of a sick society.

Simon Calder - travel writer - says that he takes an empty bottle through security and all of the restaurants airside are obliged to fill it with tap water if you ask.

Can't we just introduce a short redemption rate based on the asset being traded. This would get rid of half the City who do nothing to add value to markets and society.

It's funny. I thought taxes were originally intended to fund something in the public interest. Where did it all go wrong?

Britain 2012. It's always someone else's fault.

By the decor, they must be targetting the Arab market. Stanmore?!

The DM piece read like an advert.

On the plus side for humans, our viruses travel much slower.

Ha. How amusing. People on this site go to great lengths to explain why house prices should fall, then defend a 30 year mortgage. Spectacular.

The whole idea of WTC/CTC is so fecked up. It's just an admission that something fundamentally is wrong with a society.

Are we almost at the point where a significant minority of people will start to ask the question - what has aunt Betty's $10,000 loan from mr henderson at the Honda garage got to do with this stuff on the news?

And will they have self-service machines for returning goods? Thought not.

Any of the government owned banks will do
