| 23 Dec 09 | The Silent Subscribers (3) by mq1965 | (3 Jan 10, 12:52 AM by sparklydolly) |
| Rather strangely I have noticed that in the past few days the number of subscribers to this group has gone up by ten or so, despite the number of posts seeming to die down a bit. There seem to be rather more subscribers than there are people who post, not even allowing for the fact that many of the regular posters are, like me, not actually subscribers. (Nothing personal, I've not got round to subscribing to anything yet.) [more...]

| 18 Dec 09 | Death, An Investment Opportunity? (3) by MarcusStrapp | (22 Dec 09, 2:29 PM by MarcusStrapp) |
| Some time ago I was offered an investment opportunity by a financial adviser. Life policies are purchased from people who wish to sell them. The life policy is then maintained (monthly premiums paid) in the expectation that when the original life policy holder dies, the amount paid out on the policy will represent a tidy profit. [more...]

| Isn't it time that we stopped calling it Christmas and adopted a neutral pagan name to celebrate what has become for most people a Bacchanalian orgy of excess consumption. After all we have already done this for Easter. |
