I'm not an expert, but I voted 2010.
For at least the last 5 years I've felt that house prices had been out of hand and with the banks unable/unwilling to lend on the gigantic scale that they were it will force the prices down over a couple of years so that people can actually buy them with a sensible %age mortgage and a managable income to loan value.
I have a feeling that there will be literally millions with negative equity houses for the next 10-15 years.Comment

Is it me, or does one lose the ability to view the votes after voting?
edit: DOH! The numbers are links to a screen that shows the votes (But I'm sure there was a "View Votes" button before I voted.)Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment

Titan can be ok, but the weather is often pretty lousy.Comment

Thanks for the tip - last time I looked there were 52 named moons around Saturn which leaves 30 or so other ones still looking for a name.Originally posted by TykeMerc View PostI prefer the canyon on Tethys, lovely view over the impact crater.

I've heard Tethys is worthwhile but myself and Hari were dissapointed last year during our visit to Titan - there was an irritiating space probe Huygens -I think it was called - that spoiled things a tad with its constant probing - Hari wanted to destroy the poor thing - she does have such a temper at times , but I think she maybe just had one too many vodkas.
In the end , thank goodness the probe jouneyed off to Saturn - so all ended well - we were even lucky with the weather avoiding some of seasonal severe dust storms.
On the birghter side we're hoping to visit Trafalmadore next year - Kari's been showing me the brochures - looks great.
You can see one of our holiday snaps on the left.
Can't wait - a splendid time is guaranteed for all .
Well thats what it said in the brochure.Last edited by AlfredJPruffock; 28 October 2008, 18:01.Comment
