in Debate House Prices & the Economy
Does Hamish Mctavish get paid for posting in the economy section? Is there somewhere the rest of us can apply to be '24/7 news' posters? It must be pretty lucrative, and not having to work for a living must be great! Will I earn more than benefit scroungers and do I get a free house?

    Well, you seem to have overtaken Hamish by quite a margin on the thread starting recently!

    Indeed.

    And my post count is positively miniscule compared to many others.

    LOL... I am based from home, and am online wherever I go.

    This site breaks the tedium....

    And what happened to the monkeyboy's Hamish thread earlier?

    That was properly funny.:D

    He's sponsored by EAs ... probably cut 10 separate private deals. £50/week from each of them .... I'd like a slice of that.
