    I think that £30M is the £20M sports/leisure facitlity and Arch are also going to build more speculative factory units etc, possibly to the tune of £10M  

     

    Surely someone somewhere is embarassed about this one sided investment?

     UK GDP:

    £6 IN EVERY 10 FROM BANKING SERVICES,

    £1 IN EVERY TEN FROM MANUFACTURING,

    £1IN EVERY 100 FROM FARMING.

    (And about the same as the farming figure from prostitution and drug dealers!  WTF!) 

    ..and the national debt just goes upwards every day! 

    Looks like a reet well balanced economy to me laddie! 

    She's gonna blow captain she's gonna blow!

    Sorry Eggy, with my mind a bit more concentrated….

     

    SHLAA………. Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment.

     

    Its not enforceable and it may never be used but its there.

     

    Looking at the local Bedlington stuff I found 9 serious errors, quite a few absolutely stupid errors like designating an alleyway off Front Street as building land?  Some have already been developed others quite unsuitable.

    Might be a round robin but there is somethign in it with regard to the thread title!  We have allowed smoke and mirrors to take our eye off the ball!   
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Someone please tell me what the Hell is wrong with
    all the people that run this country!!!

    LABOUR, CONSERVATIVES
    &
    LIBERALS, 

    ?? say ??

     
    We're "broke"
    and can't help
    our own
    Seniors,
    Veterans,
    Orphans,
    Homeless,
    etc.,???

    "BUT"

    In the last years we have provided direct cash aid to
    Haiti- 1.4 B,
    Hamas - 351 M,
    Pakistan- 2 B,
    Libya1.45 B,
    Egypt- 397 M,
    Mexico- 622 M,
    Russia- 380 M,
    Jordan- 463 M,
    Kenya- 816 M,
    Sudan- 870 M,
    Nigeria- 456 M,
    Uganda- 451 M,

    Tanzania- 554 M,
      with literally Billions
    and they still
    hate us!!! 
      
    Our retired seniors
    living on a 'fixed income'
    do they get any breaks while our government 
    and religious organisations pour Hundreds of Billions 
    and Tons of Food
    to Foreign Countries!

    We have hundreds of adoptable children who
    are shoved aside
    to make room for
    the adoption of
    foreign orphans.

     
    AUSTRALIA, UK
    & US
    countries where we have
    homeless without shelter, children going to bed hungry, elderly going without needed medication and mentally ill without treatment... etc.

     
    YET. . .

    We still allow illegal "Deprived People"
    & other free loaders on our shores.

     
    While we are lining up with food,  clothes, bedding, doctors and medical supplies. 

    Imagine if 
    the "GOVERNMENT"
    gave 'US' the same support they give to other countries. 

    with OUR collected Tax-moneys.

    Sad isn't it?

  22. Good Jokes: Not For The Faint-Hearted (Adult content)

    On his 70th birthday, a man was given a gift certificate from his wife.

    The certificate was for consultation with an Indian medicine man living on a nearby reservation who was rumoured to have a simple cure for erectile dysfunction!

     

    The husband went to the reservation and saw the medicine man.

     

    The old Indian gave him a potion and with a grip on his shoulder warned,

    'This is a powerful medicine. You take only a teaspoonful, and then say '1-2-3.'

    When you do, you will become more manly than you have ever been in your life, and you can perform for as long as you want."

    The man thanked the old Indian and as he walked away, he turned and asked, "How do I stop the medicine from working?"

    "Your partner must say '1-2-3-4,' he responded, "but when she does, the medicine will not work again until the next full moon."

     

    He was very eager to see if it worked so he went home, showered, shaved, took a spoonful of the medicine, and then invited his wife to  join him in the bedroom (as you do).

    When she came in, he took off his clothes and said, "1-2-3!"

    Immediately, he was the manliest of men.  His wife was excited and began throwing off her clothes, and then she asked,

    "What was the 1-2-3 for?"

    And that, boys and girls, is why we should never end our sentences with a preposition, because we could end up with a dangling participle.
