Debate House Prices


In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non MoneySaving matters are no longer permitted. This includes wider debates about general house prices, the economy and politics. As a result, we have taken the decision to keep this board permanently closed, but it remains viewable for users who may find some useful information in it. Thank you for your understanding.

    I should rephrase. Large, established corporations are pretty well placed. It is small unestablished businesses with little by way of track record that are really struggling at the moment.

    On that we can most certainly agree.

    When I got to Passport Control they asked me if I had a criminal record.

    I said that I didn't know that I still needed one.

    One person I knew many years ago when asked upon his regular visits to the USA by border control whether they had any intention of overthrowing the government - being one of the silly questions then asked.....replied evey time with "only on Wednesdays"
    Can't think what would be the reaction these days to that reply - probably deported on the next plane back -which, come to think of it, he would have equally welcomed.
