Shannon Matthews - Critical Daily Mail asks why 24 days

Okay so Daily Mail needs stories but surely they should be rejoicing the girl is found, not criticising the police - at least they have found her and really, didn't they do all they could?

Carlyle Capital Corp Credit Crunch Casualty - 6 C's

Bang, what a crash that one!
Supposedely safe fund sank by sub-prime, allegedly - just how much further is this going, along with its contagion the US sub-prime housing boom and bust has such far reaching effects
It is said that most or all of the CCC fund or investment was actually in prime mortgages as opposed to sub prime adverse mortgages
Apparently Deutsche Bank and JP Morgan were the one to pull the plug, watch this space, please
Anyhow, gold has shot up in price and banks still don't seem to be lending to each other despite cash being made available both in EU and USA

Sport Relief - Again

At the risk of being called uncharitable, which we are not, nor am I don't you just get fed up with it being pushed and promoted all the while?
We do actually give to charity, Rainbows Children's Hospice in Loughborough and Marie Curie of course, though we are looking to widen our range so worthy suggestions are invited
BBC TV seems full of it, from 7.00 pm to 10.00 pm and again from 10.45 pm to 2.30 am on BBC1 and no doubt the Radio will have its bashing also - yes it is all for a good cause, if the 'celebs' are not charging (Terry £8,000 wasn't it, last year?) but to lose the only other decent channel for the whole evening. Oh well!

Shannon Matthews found apparently safe

Shannon Matthews found, apparently safe - brilliant and thank you Lord

Maybe we can all learn something from this? Society isn't what it was, but even 50 or 60 years ago parents warned children and worried about them, it just seems modern technology, especially in the media, brings things like this to our national attention

There were very few telephones let alone televisions before the Coronation, lets not forget

$400 Billion Dollars American Sub Prime Mortgage Market

So the total so far of dodgy loans, sub prime, made in the USA comes to an admitted 400 billion dollars - think about it, one hell of a lot of money, but then again not so much since its only 2% of the UK Stock Exchange value
But, this $400 BILLION dollars was, to a large part, in the main, borrowed!
How can they? Call themselves whizz kids, whizz pops (is more appropriate, as in whizz pop fart) the tossers, borrowing all that, or so much money, just to buy dodgy investments!
Tossers! If the investments were any good, would they be on the market? Of course not!
And the stupid Americans wonder why they are hated so vehemently - pah! Their naive stupidity defies reasonableness and now the idiots are taking the rest of the world economy down with them!
Rock on Obama, save us, please, all of us?

Eror Gordon - Bigger Ed Balls up by you

It appears my calculator has lost a digit, or two!
400 Tons of gold (it is said it was actually 451 tones) should, we think, be valued at (that is 'worth' to you Gordon) a tidy little $14 billion - 0r has said calculator made another Ed's Up
Watch out for Ian Hislop and Private Eye, unless they already do use the term, Ed's Up Gordon

Gordons (Ed) Balls Up - Gold

Well done Mr Do Nothing so as to get nothing wrong - you really did make and Ed's of this time!
Gordon you fool, have you seen the price of gold this evening? Hit a world record high it has, over $1,000 US Dollars per ounce - and you sold tons of the stuff, 400 of them allegedly, like that is 896,000 pounds Gordon
In ounces Gordon, your 400 tons is, according to my calculator, 14,336,000 - ounces, unless the calculator couldn't cope!
And just how much for Gordon?
You blithering Prestbeteryn idiot - Tony knew you were (are) as stupid as him, that's why he got out when he did, you got in when you did, so do the sensible thing, call an elcetion and resign, or better still, resign and let Vince Cable organise the election, okay?
Well, everyone whinged when you sold, and you tried to keep it all quiet, well you would, wouldn't you Gordon, that gold today would have grossed some $1,433,600,000 - isn't that $1.4billion Gordon?

Houseprice crash

Estate Agents are reported to have more properties on thier books now than at any times since records began in 1978

Last year we predicted a repeat of the crash of 89 though even as late as June colleagues tried to deny it would ever happen though once the Northern Rock fiasco sufaced some, but not all, did change thier tune

We recently heard of a property having been advertised for £335,000, reduced to £325,000 receiving a bid of £240,000 which is, or was being considered! How house prices fall!

The guy who made the bid reckoned he would get the property for £250,000!

Budget Darling

So 4p on a pint of beer eh! Just like the garages, they'll be pubs that put it on straight away, like petrol prices increase straight away even though the stock was bought pre budget! Pah!
