She sat there a moment, and heaved a big sigh
But then came along a big hunky guy
He picked her up and set her down

I was thinking more of extinction of the species than GB going bust. The earth has about a billion years of habitability left. You have to be very optimistic to think the universe won't be throwing some extinction level event this way during that billion years. It has several times in the past the most recent being the dinosaurs a mere 65 million years ago. Even without that far more species have gone extinct than are currently thriving and we may too for a reason that leaves most of the rest OK.

Even if they don't supermarket prices are a fraction of pubs with the same brands and more. I think most people must go to pubs for the company and the atmosphere and judging by the numbers of pubs closing the prices have got too high for that too.

Well done Mups.. I am still trying..

Owww. What's happened. She's fallen down
"Damn heel" she cries out with a frown
There she lays legs akimbo
Looking like a drunken bimbo 
And mud all over her new gown.

I think my friend got caught for d/d  through someone at her door,  but not sure.   

I was furious a few years back when some youngsters were door knocking around my Mum's way,  saying

Mum could not see too well,  and her hearing was practically non- existent, and I am not convinced they were even from the RSPCA really,   but even if they were,  it was totally wrong for them to try and make an old lady  like her sign up to a d/d   when it would have been obvious to anyone with half a brain she didn't understand.

Crabby explained something very poignant. The Germans understood that paying people to do nothing meant that none of their productive ability could be used, and they understood that keeping industry going and developing was more sensible than handing it to others. 

Look at us now, we don't make our own cars, saucepans, cookers, police cars, electric plugs and sockets... you name it

and our current politicians are three trillion in debt and still destroying our ability to create wealth. They want foreigners to catch our fish, farmers to grow weeds, and the oil industry to go elsewhere whilst importing almost all manufactured goods.
