No. (not long enough)

Perhaps just as well. What with running your international business empire and posting on here 24/7, life must already be very hectic.

I was hoping someone would allude to the self-aggrandisement instead of me, I might be accused of bullying.

I'm posting on here around doing other things.

I've been up since 5am, will be up at 4am tomorrow and using MSE as a way to break up other things.

My 'to do' list is much longer than normal at the moment and coincidentally you'll see me about at weird hours. Between writing the last post and this one I've actually replied to an email in some detail so MSE isn't my only concern, nor is it my priority.

I'm already about 1/3 of the way through where I want to be by the end of June and the next bit is going to be time consuming, tedious and require a lot of patience. 3/3 should be the easiest bit, as it will eventually fall into place with the others.

Not that I need to explain myself

David (Danny) Blanchflower, formally on BoE monetary committee and general self-styled economics guru, took to twitter last night when Theresa May's 'no single market' plan was first unveiled.

Oh dear.

I don't know how you can function when getting up at 5am this morning when you only stopped posting at 2am this morning (post #15453)

No wonder you're scratchy today , late to bed..

Prices in the UK’s App Store are set to rise 25 percent as the pound continues to lose value after Brexit. According to a letter sent to Apple developers reported by 9to5Mac and confirmed by The Verge, the cost of the former cheapest apps will rise from £0.79 to £0.99, while the next tier of prices will be bumped from £1.49 to £1.99, and games like Super Mario Run which previously cost £7.99 will now set UK customers back £9.99.

Not bad news for me or I suspect many on this thread.

And not quite the gist of what Apple is doing.

I'm not aware that India, for example, has had a referendum on Brexit, however, their prices are rising more than ours.

It's basically Apple making a very quick buck by saying all apps will cost the user 99p (or 99 rupees, 99 cents etc). I.e. 99 of whatever your currency is.

To lay the blame on brexit (not aiming this at you) is stretching it to the extreme somewhat.

The latest inflation figures seem to have been missed by this thread.

1.6%. Is the new level. It will all wash out in 12 months time. So should be OK.

I hope the pound does not become overvalued again as Tricky is suggesting.

To be honest, the BBC have just categorically stated that Apple prices are going up in the UK due to inflation which is due to Brexit.

They did not, at any point when discussing the "eye watering rise" in Apple prices, mention this was a worldwide change effecting quite a few other countries.

They did suggest, but never actually stated, the the price rises were due to a fall in the pound which they had already linked explicitly to Brexit. Basically putting 3 sentences together to pain an overall picture.

Theres really no hope with reporting such as that on the BBC.
