    Sorry mate, only been there 26 years and cant remeber that, where did u berth? In the basin?

    It was the Harrison ship that they found the coke in the lead ingots...
    It is nice to see the value of your house going up'' Why ?
    Unless you are planning to sell up and not live anywhere, I can;t see the advantage.
    If you are planning to upsize the new house will cost more.
    If you are planning to downsize your new house will cost more than it should
    If you are trying to buy your first house its almost impossible.

    It's the only place in country, apart from the areas of Chucky, really, ISTL, mitchaa, Hamish and PickledPink, where there has been no dip in the market.

    Time to change the record mewbs.
    You do love to quote peoples names dont you.

    Not been on for a couple of weeks, yet the only person who has commented on me ISTL is you.

    Move on, make your points, no point in trying to put words in the mouths of others as it invariably is wrong.

    Stick to your points and opinions ;)

    As you are one of the leading, and respected bulls I gave you a name check. You haven't realised that today has been a spirit of glasnost, it's like the sixties all over again. We are united as one - without the foggiest idea where house prices are really heading.

    So its no longer "This time it is different"

    Now its "Today is different" ;)

    Just as a by the by....dad went into our old office during the week, they have managed to ride through the bad times without any job losses and now work is picking up and they are looking to recruit again.

    Oh and they are still asking when I am coming back, seems there may be some negotiation room for working around the children and school holidays!
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.

    Today was a one off. It was brightened by my presence for most of it. A newer, shinier, more caring mewbie. So what if a generation is priced out of the housing market for ever? At least we had a laugh.

    PD Ports launches university degree


    PD Ports and Teesside University have launched a new degree course specifically suited for those working within the ports sector.
    Starting in late October, the Foundation Degree in Leadership and Management (Ports) will be offered over two years on a part-time basis.
    PD said it has had significant input into the content of the programme ensuring its relevance to the ports industry.
    Ports Skills Safety, the port sector training organisation is viewing this as a pilot and will then look to offer this programme to other ports within the UK.
