any analysis here to show we couldn't make a killing
(I speak as one who didn't buy Barclays shares at £1.00 because I missed the £0.50 and I knew they wouldn't go up much more in the short term))0 -
I have no idea who Sid is. Am off to have a Google, but is this a generational thing?
Edit after a Google: Ahh, a British Gas ad from 1986. I was just toddling about at that age.0 -

I was sweet 16......and had a body which got people hot under the collar.
Now they just run away and get hot under the collar that way :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.
Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.0 -
I was in the middle of my mid-life crisis, between children and, as wageslave would say, had no frakkin money to spend on stuff like shares.
The house came good the following year though...Whoops, that's bull-talk!:o0 -

Thing is, the government try to hive off the wrong sorta stuff. Some government services are services, and a capitalist system won't work for them. The postal service is a good example - look at all the services we've lost. & although it is a british thing to do to moan about the railways, we never had the scale of problems that we have now when they were nationalised.It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.0
