How could any of you have watched 'World of Pseuds' when 'Mistresses' was on BBC1 ?

Conclusion? (from two economists sponsored/programmed by certain shadow powerful interests to 'academically' intro the next stage):- There is no such thing as terminal risk - just a lack of adequate insurance

It's not me is it? - I know I don't know much, but honestly, they can't be serious, can they? -- Scroll to my fav bits in bold if you can't be bothered reading the whole thing.

& I thought I was naïve.

Your spelling is perfect SD. I was referring to the assumption that the property market would recover.

What is smug about trying to protect life savings from being used to prop up a Ponzi scheme? Every time such aspersions are cast I assume the perpetrator doesn't have the balls to get out of fiat. The converse of your argument is that life is safer in Sterling. Take some risks, life is crushingly boring if you don't; especially in Britain. EDIT:- grammar

There's something amiss at the end of that sentence SD.

'Made in China' on the frame?

So it's still 40k too much

Not seen this site before, but as I have never taken on a property loan I couldn't afford to repay why would I have? http://www.stop-repossessions.co.uk/news/2010/Aug/orders-for-repossession-decline-98124548.html

Honestly 'Pent-Up' ! - I thought I cut & pasted a fair measure of cr*p from elsewhere onto here, but it's difficult to beat that!

Some prelim. Q's if I may Limpet? Is she working? If not, will you now be providing her food clothing shelter & 're-education'? (NB entertainment is banned in these austere times)

So once more the blessed cheese makers have been passed over When will their plight end I ask?

One assumes though that 'cash is still king' & that this kind of news can be safely ignored for a while, as per usual, for all sorts of complicated reasons well beyond my ken?

Gold & silver are not cash in a heavy printing environment?

They are testing the waters. If they are not deemed TBTF they will sue for defamation.

Tis comedy hour once more. Buy your gold & silver now bretheren. Then sit back & wait at least another five years before buying. Trying not to be too bored by all the VI crap in the interval. When the five years are up you may no longer wish to live in the UK, so please be cautious.

Dearest GOM, you've lost me. Are you having space/time glitches due to substance enjoyment?? (I picked up the zh article last night, you posted it on GEI early this a.m. - Is that it?) Or are you suggesting I don't understand everything I read? (I would never disagree with you there ) Whatever, cheers ------- For 'Frank Sidebottom':- Is this gentler article more to your taste? http://www.safehaven.com/article/17936/hyperinflation-is-a-fiscal-not-monetary-phenomenon

Shocking behavoiur. Even Cgnao wasn't treated this badly. I believe Au was one third of its present in GBP when he first started posting? - Says it all

Cost of taxis to school; those designer shoes aren't designed for inclement weather or for walking very far in. ............................ Just been reading more of the guy's blog http://ourdailydebt.wordpress.com/2009/09/ He should be compulsory reading for all. I have them all saved for the evening read.

Thxs for the NY Times link. I'll treasure it Doesn't quite have the same kudos as Versailles does it Mr. Dean What a gem I wonder if 'Dean Gardens' is in his promo pack?

'Turbo boost off' (can you tell I use Opera?) this translates to 'a few in the last two years'

Best check his appearance fees. Thxs to the BBC he has become accustomed to being paid to spout & promote, so probably can't function without. Next step will be to churn out a book & he will be in the same league as Delia Smith

Citizens will be needing advice. I think I'll set up a helpful org. What shall I call it? How about something like .... 'Inside Track' ? or 'Goldman-Sachs' ? - now that has an authoritative ring to it. Ahh, but I see it has been taken

Changed my mind, this one really got to me. http://ourdailydebt.wordpress.com/2010/03/09/blairs-babes/
