    hi john sabourn #19
    good morning, i remember that time and not having anything except for what stood up in and earned it was not a challange to me, but you and cappy have hit the nail on the head about the gold standard, and the total lack of foresight by the labour goverment under blair and browns leadership.ie the pension scandal that is about to unfold, and to top it all was to sell off the gold reserves for buttons, Sadly we are now in a worse position with the ( quantative easing or printing the money ) without boring you to death, The system ie the people with the money want to write down the amount of debt or the amount spent throughout the 2008/2009 bank crash and the 2020/2021 pandemic, that is a fancy way of rubbing out the amount of cash the banks and money houses have had free from the goverments involved, and as you stated it will be joe bloggs that gets the first kick in the nuts, and as this time around i do hold a couple of groats in a money belt i am tempted to purchase gold as a easy compromise for quick cash in the future, as every other avenue will be blocked, i presume cappy has all ready moved on to the bullion markets being as shrewed as he is, but tell him its not good trying to hide up the donkeys ****, as it will need to take **** now and again.

    hi john sabourne #25
    good morning, ive actually got a cast iron figure of a black-man in the dentist chair having his gold tooth pulled out, ( obviously because of todays hypocritical woke agenda ) its completely not acceptable to own and you couldnt sell it for love or money, but its actually how in the days gone-bye people carried their wealth around safely, on second thoughts i may try to sell it in the future as a historical figure casting in iron of a black-man being robbed of his teeth by a white imperialist slave owner, it could make a lot of money with these BLM, i will ask cappy does he want a half share in it, price to be agreed,

    hi cappy #23
    good morning,whilst this country had its political balance there could be order , But the conservatives have become more like Blairs left wing than their partners in crime the labour party and it is the labour party marxist left wing including every activist that has been hitting the streets for the last eighteen months on any pretence with a sole object of bringing down the conservative goverment as only anarchy suits a marxist agenda, ie destroy and rebuild.

    #26 Well they couldn’t do that to me as I’ve got no teeth. Just shows how poor I am. Haven’t got a gold earring in either to bury me Or a tattoo to identify my body. If I do not die in bed someone’s going to have a helluva job . Maybe get it all free as the unknown Pacifist . JS

    Hello John Sabourn # 14
    I trained as a teacher and gave up when the 3 children came along until they were all in Secondary School. The Sewing machine took a pounding as I made all my clothes as well as for the girls.
    There is a big difference between WANT and NEED. Some folk haven't worked that one out, yet.
