Plastic bags
Sat, 11 Oct 2008 21:48:45 +0100
What on earth is Sainsbury and M&S playing at? Ok, so we take our bags and

filling site but have a dustbin full of food packaging supplied courtesy of

Experience?
Sat, 11 Oct 2008 11:36:03 +0100
Pah! It is overrated.
Mike Hide and others make much of Obama's so-called inexperience but maybe
that is just what is needed. The "experience" of Bush, Brown, Paulson, King,
Bernanke and Greenspan got us into this mess. It is a peculiar logic that
says the same experience is needed to get us out of it. We wan ...

Blair thought he was the Messiah and now Brown thinks he is his Father!
Lunchtime he said " We have had some success at bringing oil prices down"!

Kent on ICE.
Wed, 8 Oct 2008 18:38:54 +0100
South East News has just reported that Kent County Council had ¡ê50 million
invested with ICE. Strangely they say that they will not lose anything and
that they abided by all the rules on investing their capital.
