Mikhail Liebenstein Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Ok Guys, I decided to single handedly dig the UK out of the mess we're in - partly inspired by Mandy. So my question is, "What can I manufacture that people will want world wide and which will therefore help fix the balance of payments?" Ideas please.

Ideas please. asda curry for tea so im currently manufacturing a nasty bolus of fatulus stinking fa&t. Perhaps the uk could become a net gas exporter with the adaption of toilet equipment. This may in turn spin off a huge requirement for mushy pea suppliers. Since the politicos have reduced the uk to sh1t then perhaps this is our future.

impatient_mug Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 (edited) I can manufacture male-cow-excrement by the bucket load - search for posts by me for examples of previous work. Unfortunately everyone else seems to be pretty good at it, so are unlikely to purchase mine :-( EDIT: Damn that filter!

hilltop Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I applaud you for being positive and loking in the right direction! Ask the questions and the answers do tend to come along. The alternative is to do what everyone else is doing and as we all know, that is doom, or BTL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impatient_mug Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Software, but it takes 10,000hrs to considered good in it. There's also the fact that Indians do maybe 4x 'worse' work, but for £4,000 a year (i.e 9 to 10 x less). There's a long way to go before our cost of living and general standard drops to a level where we can compete with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copydude Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 On a serious note, I think manufacturing opportunities will be food related. Things are getting that bad. I'm old enough to remember rationing and having chickens in the yard. But many people these days couldn't kill or pluck a chicken with their bare hands an' all. So, I think the Brits could get in first with a Philishave type defeatherer. A hand-operated goat udder milk tweeter would be good news . . . plus some kind of Argos catalogue, AA battery-powered Home Cheese Churn . . . I'm looking into alcohol-at-home systems too . . You read it here first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
