At time of typing, I am nowhere near convinced we're all sorted, & have averted anything at this time. I'm fairly confident there are those who would agree that we've merely postponed the worst. Also, as posters have stated, you don't binge for 10-12 years, and fix it all with a 6 month diet. It doesn't add up.inspector_monkfish wrote: »well, i bl00dy well know that now don't i, smart@ss!!
honestly, malted milks are useless...
to be honest though, i'd rather not talk about it
its far too emotional....
Please, don't diss the malted milks....It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.0 -

ahhh but you're a balanced poster - will it be worse than it already has been?
i don't think it will get that bad.
many predicted/hoped for sterling to crash and the IMF to come in to rescue the UK, unemployment to hit 6 million, repos to get to 500,000 a year, house prices to crash 70%, oil to go back to $140 a barrel, the FTSE to get somewhere around 2,000 etc etc etc i'm still waiting for any of these to happen - we're in a bad way but no-where near as many on here would like you to think.0 -

Neither am I, but I also do not think this is or will be worse than the 1920's crash.
The past gave us models to deal with the future. Much of the current measures would have evolved from how they saw the 1920's crash develop.
All sorted means back to pre 2007 levels, that will be years off.
But I think for sure we are past the worst and heading out of recession.
I will be bold to say in real and actual terms also this will not be as bad as the 1920's crash. (As bold as anyone saying it will be:))0 -

On the one side, a la the classic digestive.
Perhaps us midlanders are more sophisticated with our snacks;)It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.0
