Scotland is better off seceding uncle Mustapha. Last few hundred years must be a good reflection time for the Scots to analyze centuries of fleecing at the hands of the English. Fuck Glasgow, Manchester and all other cities like Liverpool and Birmingham other than better parts of London and Aberdeen are all known cesspools of poverty. What a disgrace this UK is. I knew it was bad, a whole different outlook when you see it up in person...........fukkkin hell, I'd be hard pressed to go their again.
You should have said, you could have dropped round for a BBQ.
I was in Norfolk a couple of weeks ago. Nothing works there. No phones, no internet, no sat nav, no nothing. Fucking wilderness, worse than Tassie.
Never been to Manchester. Been to lecister, that was bad. It's grim up north.
Ah Norfolk, it brings back memories of ye odle carrot crunchers, I used to go through there to go offshore to the rigs. Carrots were always in demand and highly sought after and the locals used to chant "I can't read and I can't write but I can drive me tractor", old cock.

When I walk through st kilda in Melbourne I hear the theme tune of the Sullivan's.
When I walk through Norfolk I hear banjos.
Whenever you have an argument with someone, there comes a moment where you must ask yourself, whatever your political persuasion, 'am I the Nazi?'
AUD in circulation has increase 5.9% over the last 12 months. Taking away a common deflator of 1.5% leaves a monetary inflation figure of 4.4%.
So the 2% growth in real monetary terms will be a contraction of 2.4%.
Good work Tony!
When payment technology use accelerates over the next year or 2 and the amount of physical AUD in circulation starts to decline year-over-year (which, admittedly may be a few years ahead yet but is inevitable) are you going to abandon your hair-brain theories or dogmatically stick to them?
PS I have a business that is well into it's 3rd year and has never received or spent a single note or coin of physical currency. It is a pretty traditional services business. It doesn't have inventory but it buys plenty of goods and services (stationery, insurance, IT equipment, cabs, food, accounting services, various subscriptions), pays rent, makes PAYG payments, collects and pays GST, collects income.

yeah, Newjez taking the laptop with me was too much weight. All I had was my work I-phone on WiFi mode........
Got blisters on my feet walking around London and Paris. I gotta give it up for both those cities. They are truly awesome! It is those two cities which made my trip worthwhile. Paris is just fucking outstanding! no better way to put it.
But, if people wanna meet up for lunch or dinner, man I'm happy to hangout for a good pub session/ meal in Dandenong/ Melbourne.
I must admit that I was disappointed the last time I took my family to London. Both my wife and I had lived there in separate lifes but I just thought that it had lost its bohemian mojo in a big way, an attribute I liked most when I lived there.
We were also in Paris on that trip and I was mightily pissed off after I booked in a place at Vendome place only to find out that that I missed out on Hemingway's bar because the whole hotel Ritz was shut for renovations. I made it up though at Harry's Bar (doesn't sell wine) and would whole heartily recommend it to all.
So I have promised the wife that the next time we go to Vendome Place that we will stay in the Ritz and preferably the suite that Goering had when he ran the joint.
It wasn't about the internet Bardon, Internet actually is one of their saving graces. It is actually very fast and cheap.
I was just traveling around with my I-phone so never got a chance to visit all the websites I regularly visit. No time.
Trip was good. Got to see the good parts of London and Pris too. Good cities on a whole different dimension than down here. Big money.
But also saw the worst in poverty in Manchester/ Bolton. And the constant griping about how this EU is an utterly failed concept on borrowed time.
I was in London earlier in the year and even there you see abject poverty. Places like the East End with their piss soaked tower blocks.
Britain is a country of stark contrasts and they might only be a minutes walk apart. Go to Hampstead and it is all multi million pound homes and then cross the road to West Hampstead and it is tower blocks full of single mums and drug dealers.
London is a great place to live though if you have a few bob.

???????????????????
The money supply is not about printed notes in circulation.

I lived in North London for a few years in the 90's and what I noticed most this year was the number of Pret A Manger and Tesco's Express etc where once there would have been small independents. The kids were counting the Pret A Manger from the bus as we were traveling around.
Matthew, 30 Jan 2016, 09:21 AM Your simplistic view is so flawed it is not worth debating. The current oversupply will be swallowed in 12 months. By the time dumb shits like you realise this prices will already be rising.
Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.
