I am quite partial to the occasional Pimms, but why is it so expensive?

Found that out by googling magpies in Asia. Stunning bird, the site the image is on is a bit strange though Stefan.

Yeah I know it's a bit strange but they do make some stunning photos once in a while and it's so funny that they are all making photos of food they've ordered
But it's intersting to see that the photos there are differnt, in the way they are framed processed ect. then here.

Who can say? But sensible people knew that Brown was down-playing the seriousness of the UK's finances (after all, he was the one most responsible for them, and he wasn't going to come clean before an election).
And now, sensible people know that Cameron has to soften up the electorate for a big rise in VAT and other nasties, so he needs to paint a fairly bleak picture.

Can't do that Stefan - that was what the Euro was all about. One of the few things we got right.

You think so?Can't do that Stefan - that was what the Euro was all about. One of the few things we got right.
The pound hasn't been so stable the last four years and when you order something in Europe you need to pay conversion charges and other bank charges.
And the Greece are actually helping export now since the Euro is weaker. I know many shops here are happy with it.

Stefan - any discussions about the Euro (or in fact, anything to do with the EU) with many people in the UK have little basis in reason but a lot in emotion
On that subject, isn't it time to fight the French again, after all why break the habit of the last 1000 years...

The EU is why. Stopping European wars is what it was designed to do, and it has succeeded wonderfully.Stefan - any discussions about the Euro (or in fact, anything to do with the EU) with many people in the UK have little basis in reason but a lot in emotion

...maybe they haven't - that's probably why they hate the EU so much!

Here's an amazing fact.
So far today, I have (I think) made more posts than Stefan.
My keyboard is cracked, and my fingers are bleeding.
