Being pedantic not the best quote around as Rome's heyday wasn't for another 150-200 years but I agree with the sentiment.

What is the obsession with toilets??!!! We looked a 3 bed show house last year (no intention of moving from my very sturdy 50's semi thank you) and half the floorspace was taken up by loo's! There was one inside the front door, one in the family bathroom, one in the master bedroom (with plaster board partition natch, " I do like the sound of urine against pan first thing in the morning"). Is there a national bladder and bowel disorder epidemic silenty raging up and down the country? HAve the younger generation no control over their excretory functions? Can you do a No.1 in one loo and a No.2 in another at the same time?

Some gardening bits and bobs. Money from parents to which will be blown on a PC monitor and sat nav. A SONY E BOOK READER DVD collection of "Bottom" Comics books - V for Vendetta, The Watchmen & From Hell So I'm a happy bunny.

You would have made about 30% this year in the yellow bricks and 300% over 8 years...

**** is a swear word??

The moral of all these unhappy saga's is that never invest in anything you can wipe your **** on..

I think we need to get the Luftwaffe involved again - they kick started the last housing boom

Her charge out rate is very reasonable... Welcome aboard btw... Edit: add sentence

It looks like we need to start battening down the hatches financially wise for 2009 so I have decided to stop paying for internet porn sites and start having unmentionables with the wife. How will other posters be trimming their expenses next year? Your top tips please...

Indeed a serious image problem - I mean the Austin Allegro really was the epitome of British engineering excellence Oh and the 1100 Austin (apart from the rusting seals) and the Triumph Stag (please replace engine with a Rover V8)..

I believe they are called "economically inactive". A state of kharma I'm trying to achieve at work

I was going to post "I can't be bothered to look, does she get her baps out yawn, yawn?" Then I read it! Edit: Spelling
