BTW, you are not the only good person who is at his computer or whatever working.
Knowing in advance that I would be derided in someway, shape or form I thought I would repeat.

Well said

Definitely bad news - I spent £5.50 each on two tins for Halloween. There's £3 I could have used to pay off the mortgage.

Price only applies from Nov 1st to 4th so would have had to ask them to come back tomorrow or risk a trick.

Ah well, the extra £3 was worth it just to see the smiles on their faces (and their parents, hovering watchfully on the kerb).

They had some cracking costumes, too, so definitely worth £11. It's the kind of entertainment you can't put a price on.

I'd buy some this year at the reduced price, ready for next year - but I know they wouldn't last that long.

Alot more part time work, but it's better than nothing, still it had to come down, there has been a million more unemployed in the last few years, still a long way to go, fingers crossed it will keep improving.

Well I'm sure a few people will be pleased to hear that 3rd quarter GDP growth has been confirmed at 1%

I'm not sure that employers will be hiring and manufacturers will be manufacturing based upon a trailing indicator. This particularly if the leading indicators are calling for the Uk to go back into or near recession in the fourth quarter which we are already two months into, and then onwards.

The rest of us will be trying to work out where we GO from here in order to stay ahead and avoid losing our shirts again. We will also be trying to separate the wheat from the chaff, if we can remember what wheat looks like.

Better news is that somebody sensible, it seems, will be taking over the Governorship of the Bank of England next Summer.

From the coverage I've seen so far, it seems like this is the best piece of economic news in a long while.
