Amongst many things I have been called "a pain in the neck" is one of them so I hope yours is not too painful or long lasting - I like the finger.....

As a sign of the times I am inspired to misquote Shakespeare - Mark Anthony's speech at the murder of Caesar...

Friends, Romans, countrymen (cockroaches), lend me your ears (listen well you brainwashed destitute peons, arise and defend your dwindling personal assets and resources)... The evil that men do lives after them (except for bankers and other financial wizards who shall always remain blameless - having harvested/STOLEN immense wealth from you all - - and for even the most horrendous of crimes) the good is oft interred with their bones (except for modern day politicians and other "public worthies" who ensure they are graciously remembered for their charitable works and edifices in the forecourts of distinguished Universities, Libraries and other "public buildings" funded by some of their criminal activities) So let be with Caesar (and all the lying, cheating thieving and murderous swine who enforced the good citizens of the world into destitution, debt and other fiscally derived misery) The noble Brutus (a murderer) hath told you that Caesar was ambitious (another greedy ******* who was looking after himself) and if this were so then grievously hath Caesar answered it (and a great pity that many more guilty of pillaging their own country did not suffer likewise)....

Hi Jim, If you have not been reading quietly then you have a lot of catching up to do.... Houses sold but Buderim not quite settled yet.... Slander & defamation laws inhibit any further discourse, apart from declaring it is causing me extreme mental stress and anguish....

Moved in to a small cottage whilst preparing to build boat & then retirement home" if the money extends that far - the vageries of the market and investments do nothing for confidence in ones future prospects.... Planned retirement? - no such thing - when one has to rely on some economic certainty and stability....

The European banking sector is expected to crash like a castle made of cards as a consequence of "investment in new eastern European countries (ex USSR & now part of the Euro community)".... Bigger bang than so far in USA?..... Does that leave Australia and NZ as the only bastions of English language to survive (unless we go out in sympathy/apathy... ?????????????

Less possessions = a simpler life, Just plant gardens everywhere, then when I come back should have pumpkin, cue-comber, watermelon, banana, pineapples and pawpaw/papaya etc.....
