    I think you'll find these Med countries slowly move into recovery mode.
    FFS man, Italy has been in recovery mode since the Goths sacked Rome.

        I'd just like to wish everyone a most excellent Greek-end!

            I would not place an amount more than a weeks worth of hotel accomodation into these places. Basket cases the lot.

            If you want decent returns plenty of funds are poised to march on into 40% returns over the coming year.

              U was watching ITV News yesterday (don't normally but just happened to be first thing that I switched on to) and it was talking about how bad things are in Greece. People are queuing up for free food there, they have no medicines for cancer or simpler diseases, suicide rate is getting worse by the day and people are selling off everything to buy food. This sounds like a 3rd world country to me not a European one which is part of the Eurozone.

              Firstly, my sympathy is with those Greeks suffering (though not with the Greeks who caused this and are now suffering) for going through something which must be incredibly demoralising with little hope for the future.

              Secondly is this situation going to spread? Firstly to Spain, Italy and then eventually on to us? It really is worrying times....
              Are you sure you're talking about Greece?
              Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                  Whats this we business? If you think its a problem and you should help then do so. Dont involve me or others.

                  One of the main reasons we are contractors is to minimise tax which most of it is stolen to meddle and "help" other poor people. This is also the main reason this country is fked! Socialist meddling in things that should just be allowed to take their course.

                    I certainly did not choose to become a contractor to minimise tax.
                    Keep me out of your tax dodging.
