    You must be fun at parties.


    Thanks. I know how to work a room..or indeed clear one :):j

    On a serious note, is that really all we are? We are worth only what we own,what job we do,what we possess and are otherwise worthless as human beings?

    Do people who live on the plains of africa or the frozen expanse of Alaska who dont have day jobs,mortgages and BMWs judge eachother by who has the biggest and best hut ,the furriest coat? Maybe they do..
    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..

    I think we should be less judgmental generally.
    We are renting because we have great job(s) in London but don't know how long this "phase" will last, so there are certainly successful people who rent for business reasons.
