Re: Reasons to be Cheerfull

Na! All this blame game is 1930s stuff/attitudes when things turn sour.

Anwser; find other ways to generate wealth, rather than denying reality, scrapping for crumbs

Re: Reasons to be Cheerfull
"A lot of people are talking about a new green deal," said Lord Turner
Yep blah,blah,blah and spin........Maggie used the same concept 25 years ago,rehashed crap...........Most houses have insulation in loft,infill in walls and who wants to pay out for unemployed numpties trampling all over your home. Upvc double glazing is not sustainable,plastic crap. Wooden windows with D/G yes more skills and jobs,craftsman not mastic bodgers. Firms like Anglian & Everest will go under in the recession with crap products and bodgy workers. Heating systems with 65f tops no thanks. Firms should be given tax breaks for taking on apprentices during the recession and maybe take over building companies to build the homes they want for 70 million plus population. Mandy ain't got the balls to do that. so stage 5 hear we come.

Thatcher never really see the concept, she saw it as a biproduct of creating a new generation of small businesses/men.

Only wealthy/ Band E+ folk will be able to afford more expensive wooden frame windows; so clap trap for folk living in million Band A-D properties.

Government needs to get firm on banks/BS like Northern rock to produce lending products £5000-£25,000 to provide long term investment in D/G windows, insulation, solar heat panels, condensing boilers; the initial installation costs being the current barrier. Whats the point of £10k on a kitchen/conservatory when houses aren't selling, better to equity invest in items that save on heating bills, imports of Russian gas; when NS gas really dips in 5-10years.

Apprentices, yes; but they aren't going to be trusted to do skilled work. Tea boys more like.

Stage 5 what? More mad clap trap from a dogdy burger!

Re: Reasons to be Cheerfull
Guardsman would make great coppers!!!!!

Nicolas Ibarra

The student is having a great time impersonating the guard who does not seem amused by his antics

The attack was captured on film by the 23-year-old's friend Suzanne Cadosch.

When the Colombian student began mimicking the guard, he lost his cool and went for Mr Ibarra.

The Oxford University student also claims he was pushed away by the guard, who used his SA-80 semi-automatic rifle while letting out a furious roar.

Ms Cadosch had stopped filming as she was so frightened.

Mr Ibarra continues to follow and copy the guard

Having had enough the sentry loses his cool and turns around

'I felt this huge hand on my collar and managed to avoid a boot up the backside but he was growling-like a bear,' he said.

'I was worried because he had a bayonet on his gun and didn't want that going somewhere painful. He pushed me away with the gun and I just ran for it.'

The guardsman, who is with the 1st Battalion of the Scots Guards of the Guards Division, was on sentry duty.

Clarence House where Prince Charles lives is within St James's environs.

Guardman was justified under Army Regs; "collaring a keen recruit, impersonating a guardsman. Perhaps a bit of press ganging, as the student seemed keen to take the Queen's Shilling.

Yesterday I played cricket and batted without a box; luckily I arrived home with the wedding tackle intact. However perhaps I should have not batted or even blamed the quick bowler or umpire if I had been pollaxed. No; it was my stupid fault to go out to bat without protection with balls flying at 75mph.

Cricket should be a hard-hat area, along with "box" protection!!!!!

Surely this protection/matching metaphor applies to Forum postings
