Minty - our house needs a good scrubbing. Fancy £7 per hour (net)?

I suppose a later retirement age would reduce the number of elderly people who have nothing better to do than start threads on internet message boards about what happened to them in the shower that morning.

I'd charge a lot more than that for being a scrubber.

It's quite fun watching the justified anger mingling with the widespread conviction that all the UK's troubles are down to immigration, and if you downsized your home, it would be so that an illegal immigrant with dozens of children would e given it, with a state-subsidised mortgage.

As I said about a year ago, debtors prisons and some form of workhouse would solve all the nations current woes. Simple really but the government is not radical enough.

It would certainly stop all this economic / welfare migration as well. Why come to work in a rat-infested, sweatshop for no pay in a cold, damp place like the UK when you could have the same lifestyle in a nice warm place in the sub-continent?

Well you can knock one off the total....got a job today and start monday

Not bad....10 weeks to the day from being suspended and then sacked.

Well done that man! Good luck with it.

Thanks

Good luck with this project Damo, good to see you've ignored all the haters and pressed on with something constructive!

Thanks.

They’ve no doubt prepared me for the bigger haters out they in the world that have yet to discover me. However I do hope to stay civil with people on this thread that I’ve had disagreements with by calling some kind of truce. Bygones be bygones etc.

Good luck Damo.

Thanks

Congrats and good luck Damo, said a few years ago that you had the potential to do something really creative and worthwhile. Best wishes mate.

I'll second that Damo - well done.

Good luck with it ... I'll be watching for developments.

Well done Damo don't ever let the people here make you feel worthless.

Thanks mate.

I was probably to depressed to pursue something like this a couple of years ago. But I’m glad I’m doing it when I’m doing it because it’s the right time now.

Grateful for the support!



Thanks!

If I ever get to interview Bruce Springsteen I’ll try to let you in on it



Thanks - I’ll be working with my mate at setting up the website today.



There’s only one person who’s made me feel worthless so far this year and it hurt. But that’s between me and that person and he’s a decent guy overall. But I felt a bit used..

And if Clegg ever comes a visiting make sure you tell him what a complete w@nker he is!

He’s surrounded by parasites like Emma Harrison of a4e and that’s why he along with anyone else in government do the wrong things at times. However if more people got involved in politics we would have a much better country because the likes of her wouldn’t get a look in.

The world where the likes of her thrive is ending. We’re entering a new era where the people will have the power. I don't have any big opinions on David Cameron or Nick Clegg. Margate Thatcher on the other hand is someone who I really dislike. She played a big part in laying down the platforms for the way this country is at present.

Three square meals a day. This what a legal immigrant said to me back in the 70's. No use having a beautiful place to live if your starving most of the time.

It's happened for donkeys years and it isn't really preying on anyone. Certain people can't get access to cheap credit mainly because they have a record of non-repayment. As a result the interest rate applied reflects the risk. Also, because they are short term loans, the APR though accurate, isn't a true reflection of how much you pay back. If you borrow £100, you don't pay £4,100 back. You'd probably pay say £160, over a period of 20 weeks or so.

Something else to note is that most of these loan companies are owned or bankrolled, either directly or indirectly by mainstream banks.
