The pound
Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

Originally posted by suityou01 View PostOK I'll bite. Apparently there was a Bilderberg meeting last week. The plan is to pump the markets up again, get people talking about green shoots, then collapse it all again. The big plan is to introduce a new global currency. Also to push the Lisbon treaty through this year as Ireland's economy is in the crapper and can't argue too much.

How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

It's already at 1.135 against the Euro and 1.547 against the $ so I think you could see your prediction way earlier than Christmas.
