Nope because then you will have my saga on here....my parents live on the sea front!
:rotfl: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.

No, not the end - that was the start, the background if you like. Now we move into recession proper, stocks have been wound down - what happens now?
Scrappage may enable some of those unsold cars in parking lots to be shifted - no effect on imports - no extra required.
Petrol tax hits hauliers, hits retail, hits inflation. Effect on imports - less imports.
Ten years of debt to be paid back - the latest tax increases are just the start - effect on imports? Well if Mr. Average has less money and feels lucky to have a job maybe he / she won't be buying that new discretionary purchase anytime soon.0 -
