Apologies

For the three month hiatus or is it longer, I apologise

I have been busy trying to earn enough money to pay off my creditors, my tax bill (spit) and the other monies that one has to pay to amongst other people Northern Rock

As you can imagine the credit crunch has hit us all and therefore it is only natural that I would spend more time on trying to avoid financial meltdown rather than spending all day on the net blogging.

Nevertheless I do sincerely miss those people who do not visit anymore

Northern Rock or how Gordon Brown became the first Labour politician to nationalise something for decades

Northern Rock have been nationalised and it hurts, I have my mortgage with them so I'm safe. The investors who bought the shares well they have nothing. Trading was suspended this morning. The new chief financial officer, Ms Godbehere, well it'll take more than God being there to turn that financial white elephant into a cash cow.

Tony Blair must be laughing his insides out, that he left before the going got rotten but then we always knew he would have left a poisoned chalice for Gordon.

Someone remarked to me that Gordon was a parsimonious prat, Nice alliteration and great timing.

Now will someone get rid of this turbulent government and give us peace and prosperity?

Between a rock and a hard place

I talk of course of Northern Rock's debacle, of its crisis over the last few days.
Should you take your money out? and further worsen its position or leave it in and worry yourself to death? Last night on BBC News 24 I was stunned to see someone I knew complaining about their inability to access their online account with Northern Rock. I've walked my dog with her many a time and she's looked after my dog too overnight.

Strange how the whole world becomes very much smaller sometimes
