      Sod equities, bonds, houses; agricultural commodities is what you should be in. There is money to be made in famine.

      Hang about, didn’t someone in Omen II say something like that.

              Energy, water, and possibly global property.

                Not doomed, boomed!

                The number of unemployed people in the UK fell in the three months to April, according to official figures, dropping by 15,000 to 1.68 million.

                The figures also showed that the number claiming jobseeker's allowance was down by 9,300 to 880,400 in May.

                Average earnings rose by 4% on an annual basis - below forecasts - in the three months to April, down from 4.4% in the January to March period.

                  But those are govt figures designed for positive spin...the real numbers may well not be so appealing...
