    oh !!!!!!, another pointless MSE report. Why do they even bother with this rubbish. In one week we will get a report from another source saying prices are falling. Has MSE been reduced to such a poor standard that they employ people just to repeat verbatim pointless reports from second rate newspapers.

    Yehaa, another post removed following my estimation of the MSE 'researchers' being to journalism what Keanu Reeves is to method acting.

    Watch this space for the next extract from the Sun newspaper, reported verbatim :-)
