Ther was a link at the end of the locked thread I believe That link points to the original thread you started on the same subject So no need for two threads on the same subject, hence first one locked

I?m with KidKruger on this one

still being discussed here

Louisiana That depends on what source you are feeding it ? old school vcr and (say) freeview digital stations will look worse Partly because of LCD but also because the new screen is now bigger and the flaws with the source are more apparent If you feed it a bluray, or HD, or console picture and you have settings set correctly you will quickly see it is indeed progress But if you just want to watch what you do now on a flatscreen you might be dissapointed

Nah. I just do a quick search before I start a thread A wall mounted atlas in a pub does several things but this one just makes me go "wooooowwwwww"

Easily one of the best pubs within schlepping distance. Free jukebox with well chosen CDs. Lovely staff. Great menu. Great beer selection And the best bar none atlas in the world I would even move to be closer to it

But that was point as well. I was saying we need to inform the next generations that they may need to emigrate and become immigrants themselves. So anybody unhappy with immigration in this country would do well to remember that

I don't follow your point there Mick

I'm certainly never going to teach any child of mine about the evils of emigration/immigration

Deal

Might I suggest that anyone who stands and wins against his older brother AND tell's Ed Balls to do one, is in the pocket of nobody, least of all the unions

in the meantime... .... can we all go for a pint?

it's grown a bit since last week mick a bit more http://www.stardusttrailers.com/gallery_film/(200509144159)collateral_2.jpg

to be fair the EDF hadn't been going very long so there aren't many earlier quotes you could find But I remember plenty of similar sentiment for years dating back.

Oh I don't know that not many people foretold it a full 2 years before the 2008 crash for example What I remember is that anyone suggesting such a thing was decried tunrs out in 2007 I was too

and you definitely aren't waynetta, daizie?

Many good points coming to the fore now But there are many things we don't know as well. Unquestionably the shift of power to the east means we aren't right to compare this to previous slumps. And yet, and yet... What China and India have in common is a (to date) compliant workforce. The big labour struggles throughout the 20th century in the US and Europe have yet to be played out there. Arguably the balance of power against the workers in these countries is greater but something tells me not all is as predictable as we may think

I'm inclined to agree. That was end of 2008. But then again, there never is a "time". There is always a reason to back off. That should give us pause for thought at least

Ooooh. So much of it i agree with quids. Your post here and on related threads is largely spot on But historically and in the future, us masses will want what we can't have. The lessons between the 30s and 80s amounted to agreeing the banks would be careful not to fuel that. But having been in a straightjacket for so long they have continually lobbied HARD for each govt to give them more leeway. Any govt from thatcher onwards would have list votes acting the parental role in the face of such lobbying Again I agree the subsequent boom aided lots but wouldn't we, like Arsenal without silverware, have benefited from such discipline We are where we are. And I agree with you the city needs to play it's part to the full. But is should have been doing it's job properly to begin with. If people are angry with them it isn't just mail like hysteria. They didn't do their inportant job. And when people get cross with them they say they will take their toys away. That is just bullying in the gave of fair criticism. The lehmans and other banks which messed up left a huge crisis which the other banks failed to solve. They should take that criticism on board and understand their limits. If Jamie dimon or similar (and he did a much better job than most) was able to quell the trouble then people couldn see why bonuses were worth it. But it was ploddders like brown who stood up. The world was within hours of every cashpoint not working because the all powerful bankers were paralysed. We need them. We really do. But they aren't worth what they believe

Give a break to someone using the facilities of a "local web facist"?? Hmmmmm

Oooh nice touch narnia. Worth a +1

6/10. I smiled but it didn't generate the full chuckle

I thought the lordship lane station was way up just before it runs out near the horniman?
