    It's a con though isn't it. It's his personal promise as chairman, and I've no chance of meeting him to demand anything. :laugh:

    Money's bombed out. Only coins are legal tender in Scotland, English notes are only legal in England and Wales.

    What I've always been taught is never speak about religion or politics!

    But seeing the comments, one solution is to build more social housing to reduce housing support costs? The other is to stop ALL social support, those who don't want to work can starve !!

    Now what was that advice again ;)

    Yes. All the Governor promises to pay you is the value of the note. Nothing more. So £1 = £1.

    The note's not valued at a pound, it's valued at £20, so he can't just give me the note back. Anyway, we've done this now and moved on. <somersault>

    You don't find George Osborne's statements to the house very entertaining then?

    The banks remain the biggest problem, I've spent the past three months trying to borrow a substantial amount of money to buy out my partners and despite me having substantial revenue guaranteed for the next year and offering assets as security(with twice the value of the funds requested), they still wouldn't provide the funding.

    He's already ignoring every question I ask him on Twitter, so I doubt I'd get very far.

    I blame it all on immigration, smokers, Islam and speeding motorists.

    Not to mention chavs and all the salt McDonalds put on their fries.

    Well that's what The Sun reckons anyhow.

    Well the two things that have being brought up in this thread i can directly relate to.

    Compared to January last year compared to January this year, my fathers company (building company), have being asked to price 53% less jobs, however they have priced about double the amount of council project. And of all those that they have priced far more of them have come off in the sense they get to the building stage, most tend to just go through planning. The building sector is still building, especially in Yorkshire, so i think my father was more confused at why on earth the whole sector went down so badly.

    On banking OLM, pretty unsure what bank your looking at as i personally work in banking now, and i admit we probably have the highest rating and we do indeed want most things guranteed against something, but to say the banks aren't lending is completely wrong IMO. I myself have gained a mortgage at the age of 20 with a credit rating of nothing special, and i have indeeded borrowed far more for my own business endeavours, that maybe due to me being in banking however i know for certain we are lending far more now than we did before the 'credit crunch'.
