All the best Vic.......

Flipping heck Keef2, you write up that Wikki entry on Popes? Its got the full 9 yards about 1 hour after the election. Impressive.

Congrats Vic.......

I just wrote up that one about the horse and the vicar! Wonder if the headstone is still there?

Popes..

Not just in Northumberland, down in Durham, especially southwards, its all thou and thee.

A'm ganning tappy lappy doon the heathery lonin with a baary mort. Morpethese.

I think every 'conversation' stands that chance Maggie. Its like overhearing something out of context and forming a resolute opinion based solely on that snippet. Quite often its completely erroneous. You obviously went right back and read through vast tracts of this site you found most interesting and brought some of it back to life. That would give you a reasonable judgement on how the regular contributors in those threads converse. And that's notwithstanding page two of this thread! People jump in, people jump out, its a big enough site to handle that.

Sorry there was no explanation on that last post........Sym you can open it, honestly, its got something to do with what we are discussing.

Just carrying on Keef1's style of treatise given this topic title!

That's next month Keef1 after your inaugural Resident's group meeting!

My head hurts.....

My owld boiler goes every year Maggie after her father introduced her to the memorial service in his last months. Happens to be her birthday too so no excuses for not remembering.

English actors got oscars in US films?

Love old bookshops........ problem is old bookshops and new rents and rates!

Seemed like a good idea to use these at the time......... http://www.journalli...61634-32972214/

Researching something else I found this............ Never heard of this before...... http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/domesday/dblock/GB-424000-579000/page/7

Ghosts?

Sym, Its not Keef1's group doing the vetting its the housing association doing it and I am not sure DBS will come into it? More probably some sort of 'criminal' or 'anti-social' background checks? ASBO's have to count for something, don't they?

Sorry couldn't resist!

Kitchen to the bedroom and your not sexisit! Keef1 you had better moderate this thread, I think it might explode now! :lol:

GGG, I think they are the movement we are surreptitiously shown by sleight of hand artists, so we think we can see the trick. It's called misdirection! I didn't think much of the previous system but at least we had a band of elected councillors sitting on policing panels looking into all aspects of policing in their jurisdiction. Now all Vera can look into is budgets isn't it? It's not democracy being enlarged, its democracy being withdrawn! Quasi militia of all types need to be adequately overseen by the communities they serve or it's the communities who become the servants! "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes”, and all that!

GB was right on................you on something GGG? Disastrous chancellor and completely out of his depth PM. Looks like the stock markets are being held up with the likes of QE so gold has to be depressed or there wouldn't be ANY trade. If one of the EU countries with problems but gold reserves (Italy say) pulled out and backed a new currency with gold, leveraging against it, the Fed would have to try and depress the price even further or everyone would be back on the gold standard and how much physical stuff is there in Fort Knox? The brave new world of virtual banking would need something physical behind it and that's already scarred everyone witless once. The market is out of syc with fundamentals, the likes of gold should be rocketing? We are making nowt, buying Chinese rubbish with built-in obsolescence, actually listening to the politicos selling us on green power technology because that's all they can come up with as a growth area but its completely artificial, we are chasing our tails deluding ourselves we can get back to where we seemingly had some disposable income even if that was fleeced off us. Very hard to see the rocks for the quicksand.

Price of gold is crashing..............possible sequestration? Who will be the first to break ranks?
