god give me a break with the doom merchant stuff, we’ve got more work than we can deal with here and our work force has more than doubled in the last
3 months. If its not global warming its some other disaster, worse than watching flippin Eastenders for trying to depress everyone

I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

Do bear in mind its written by one of the Daily Mail journalists.
Scaremongering media junk as usual, which has only served to make the situation worse.

Before the end of the year, the west will owe more to China than it owns. The Chinese will demand repayment and take ownership of the entire world in
lieu of cash, thus ending the 65 year plan to bring comunism to the entire planet. We will all have to learn to speak Putonghua and swap our Pounds
for Renminbi, work 168 hour weeks and do Tai Chi every day.
That or it'll all work itself out some how like it always has.

Right then, if it wasn't reported by the sh1t stirring scumbag press would we really be bothered?
I'm SURE the country has been in a worse mess (WW2??) and we got over it. This coutries always been rubbish. We only have the horrible thing
that was Thatcher to blame. There is no way out.
We will all just carry on as we are, moaning until we die...

Missed the boat Tom, what you should have done is buy thousands of DOLLARS when they were 2 to the £.
I kicked wor lass all over the house last week cuase she thought it was a bad idea at the time.

It's from the Daily Mail, organ of the Conservative right wing, so it must be true!

Is anyone really surprised the country is bankrupt? Not exactly the first time Labour has taken the economy to the brink...
The councils that had invested in Icelandic banks said they could bear the losses are now increasing council tax. Is this to build up another loseable
surplus?
If at first you don't succeed, hide all evidence you ever tried!
