      A hefty earthquake in Blackpool could cause millions of pounds of improvements.

      No, correction, thousands; the whole of Blackpool can't be worth a million.

        I remember Googling for "carbon credits" a few years ago and instead of the expected results came up with a host of companies offering to take money off middle class folks via credit card "to save the environment".

        Sounded too good to be true, but if someone wanted to assuage their guilt by sending money to me, I'd make sure that any funds received were spent on green products only

          And which institution kicked off the mass-printing of sterling which has had a pretty close to zilch effect on the growth and now is having the opposite effect?

          Someone predicated that people's standard of living had fallen to '70s levels, a bit more of this and we'll back to the '50s.

          I've just made a sandwich board which says " To all the people with brains, LEAVE!"
          Pretty harsh on the faggot manufacturing community. It's not ALL their fault!
