$14.19 according to the beeb0

I like that.
So about £43,250 for the average house, according to his article.
Lovely.
BTW, why are you up, Generali?
Isn't it 2 in the morning or something, where you are?
Or have you just pretended to move, and are now actually living in a shed in Hull, or something?0 -

Hi carolt
No, not Hull - there have been no sightings of Prescott round here.
I'm 9 hours ahead of you this time of year so a 2pm your time post is an 11pm one your time.
I am writing this at 7am as I have a terrible cold (swine flu???) and a slight hangover (wine flu). The combination woke me up.
@JonnyBravo - I am 'no sheds' Generali right now, unfortunately. I think a spot of weekend shed reconnaissance might be in order. Bunnings here I come.0 -
Glad to hear we're not keeping you up.
Morning, Gen.
Sorry to hear about the cold - I'm exactly the same, except mine's now at the chest infection stage. Hope it is swine flu - would be lovely to have got over it and say breezily 'Oh, it wasn't that bad'.0 -

Yeah. If it does turn nasty a bit of H1N1 immunity would be handy too.
I got 'quarrantined' from work during the SARs thing after I went to Singapore. Basically it was a free week off. The best thing was I got one of those free invite to use the local Holmes Place the day I got back too so I spent a week hanging out with the yummy mummies, pretty much.
The only worrying bit about SARs was when I was sitting in a hotel bar waiting for Mrs Generali to apply her warpaint. A bloke came and sat next to me. He was obviously agitated and was coughing a lot and he was obviously quite ill. He was having a heated conversation to someone at the other end of his phone of which I caught only the following section:
"Yes well I know she's got SARs [cough]......I don't give a fokk that she's in quarrantine [hack hack]....I know that I've been looking [cough] after her.....well I just want to see her [cough hack]"0 -
Slightly concerned that when you were in quarantine from work you hung out with lots of mummies, yummy or otherwise... :eek:
Good thing you didn't have SARS.
That said, I've been merrily coughing away this week - if it is swine flu, numerous pensioners on the bus and babies at toddler group have got something nasty to look forward to.0 -

The SARs thing was just silly - it was clear by that stage that you could only catch it if you were in close and continuing contact with someone with it. Nurses, doctors and family members were catching it but people on buses weren't.
This flu looks easy to catch but milder than most strains so not a problem right now. Unless, like me, you've been struck down at the same time as your wife and both Generalissimos and you're expected to look after them all! Never mind I seem to be recovering.
The other horrid thing has been I've had to go to work through all this as I've just started two new jobs. In one of them, I had to lock my office door and go to sleep for 20 minutes just to make it through the day on my first day at work! Not the best start!0 -

I bought in about 7GBP I dont think silver will be that low ever again.
I think moneyweek is right, houses are going down Silver is going up.
You just have to look at the facts.
95 of the silver in the world has been used up, and we are using up the other 5% at an even faster rate.
By 2020 all the silver mines will have run out, just before that happens what do you think the price of silver will be?0
