    I suggest that Graham has woke up and smells like coffee. Others should take a sniff.

    They can't be that thick, they kicked you off their forum.

    Had plans my self Pimperdoodle.
    Look at us with plans at the weekend. Certainly worth announcing to the internet.

    My hope has been quashed as I realise now that geneer's plans are "post on MSE, HPC and CC for 2 days straight only pausing for a quick nap for the 10th week running".

    Still, at least it means we can look forward to week days.

    geneer doesn't realise that all his weekend mass postings achieves is that we all know how empty his life is!!

    holy moley geneer, get out and get a life. I bet he's a right ugly fat b'stard who cant get a girlfriend so spends all weekend eating pizzas, drinking DIET coke and posting on web forums.

    dear god who would want his life? not even him. what a loser!

    And here's Sargeant Skeppi taking the moral high ground. Not.:rotfl:

    Sorry, I post on HPC very rarely, and CC's been very quiet since the, y'know, house price crash. So not a particularly accurate description.

    Naturally, if I wanted to get myself on the good side of the MSE nutter sub-forum arbitrary moral highground police, the done thing would be to repeatedly link to the forums I've been banned from and let you join in on the moaning. :D
    As I haven't been banned, can't help you mate.

    Has to be Capital Economics, they were the only ones to turn bullish just as the market turned:

    At the very least Money Week and Jonboy Davis are consistent in peddling their negativity ... and even a stopped clock is right twice a day

    It's been very quiet since the 'bulls' got banned - cheered on by yourself. Is it a bit too quiet over there now?

    Even Liverpool fans will be correct one of these close seasons, well maybe not ;)

    Where is the Hamish option, wasn't his prediction that there would be no crash and prices would continue to rise but not as fast as Aberdeen which has all the riches of the world.

    All three named options have been correct in what's happening however we know that these predictions are on the Austrian trend which accurately predicts trends but never timings.

    Nope.

    As you know full well, my accuracy of predicting the course of this crash has been significantly better than yours.:cool:
