    You mean borrowing
    I'll keep saving

    It's great debating with these self-proclaimed Bears. :rolleyes:

    Just like talking to a 4 year old..........everything is black and white.

    You are either borrowing huge amounts, or saving huge amounts.

    There can't possibily be any other choice.

    What is your area? And which media outlets currently serve you to get this?

    All reports on anything are biased, it is almost impossible to have no leanings whatsoever when writing something. Only figures speak, those for actual sales that actually happened. All the rest is just hot air.

    Hello Chrisp

    I noticed that you opened an ING account on one of the threads.

    I sent you a code, but as I never received £25, I guess you never used my code. I have sent you loads of PM's but no reply ever received, that's why I have sent these public messages hoping it may shame you into a reply.

    Could you please reply to me, as this could cost me £25. Did you use another code from someone else? If so, just let me know.

    Housing bears are shameless, I thought everyone knew that???;)
