    You mean a satsuma, oranges are ostentatious.

      It may be different down south to the north, maybe we have more idiots down here. When I lived up North (well if Yorkshire counts as North) it seemed things were different - people were more down to earth.
      Ah now I get it! You're talking about the knob-jockeys you see on property ladder and the like?

      Sorry hun - I completely agree with you there. I thought you were calling the poor stupid. Not the stupid stupid!

      I knew you must have meant something nice in there (and I wasn't being sarcastic before).
      The pope is a tard.

        My sister-in-law has just entered the property development business. She and her other half are in for a shock on this one!

        Already, the quotes for the work plus the expenses (legal) have taken their "profit" down to zero. What a time to get into this business!

          Whoa! No need to be so pessimistic! This is just a small correction, a soft landing and all that, then we'll be off on the gravy train again!

            Well, you could argue there is a connection between IQ and wealth, right? Discuss.

                    People with lower IQs tend to also be the richest?

                    Alan Sugar
                    Duncan Banertyne and Weir
                    Branson
                    etc.
                    The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                    But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”
