Recession is already here in everyone's minds and spending habits. Just not 'official', that's all.

Probably better off using the dynamo to charge a deep cycle battery and to then plug into the TV via an inverter. Soft light from the TV should provide a feeling of warmth :-0
Have you escaped the conscript net Tricky?

Right now, performance of a company has no bearing on the sp. This will continue down until enough ii get back in.
They are not coming back in for a while, they could lose all their clients money, so they are getting out.

To get to 150, which is below Feb22 number, this sp has to climb 50%. That is just not going to happen, as much as we try to will it.

Only works at the terminals. If you buy something within the country and want o take it out tax free back to your home country outside UK.. good luck getting your VAT back.
What a PITA that is and 99% of the shops don't even have the paperwork to complete. If they made it a simple procedure to complete at POS with correct ID then that would work.
Global Blue is a company that facilitates that. Refund straight to your payment card once you clear borders.

bobbins, a cruise on the Queen Mother reservoir is about all we will fund, sorry. Inflation and all. The dinghy will be donated by the French coast guard, surplus to requirements...
Hob Nob!

I told everyone last month that the FED would increase by another .075%
That makes me a genius. But no one listened.

For all those too dim, I'm being facetious.

Scotty, unlike you, I can stand alone. Are you a teenage girl? You need likes? Aww, didums is a not getting the likes per day that she so desperately craves?
Oh dear, perhaps you should look for a quick exit?
I'm not worried about sp, it's you that keeps writing about it, ponce.

DB, maybe you need to open your eyes a bit more. I owe nothing to the UK government. Nothing. You want to talk about loyalty? I've done my bit. When will you do yours?
If you knew anything, you would now how badly YOUR government screwed over the British servicemen and women.

Scotty, you patronising POS! When did I threaten your family of shrews?
I don't even know you, you are just some random serial w4nker!
You the the epitome of what is wrong with the UK. You like to tell everybody what a cleaver little **** you are, but in reality you are scared ****less of what is coming around the corner.
Stop pretending to be a big shot, you are a NOTHING! You will always be a NOTHING! Now STFU and go away. Please filter me, you filthy little peasant.
Inbred muddafudger!

bobbins, your dismissive and disparaging attitude towards ME is extremely disrespectful. How Bloo6y Dare You!!
But other than that I assume you do not disagree with my views?
I know, I stand alone in this. I'm sure you are right, time after time the UK governments has had it's citizens interests at heart, especially that Rees-Mogg chap.

What a load of BS!
They will make the energy companies charge the consumer less, meanwhile take the 'extra cost' from the tax revenues and pay the energy companies via the back door. The consumer will still be paying for it, just not directly.
Why not decouple the price of natural gas with actual cost of producing electricity, which comes from nuclear, hydro, wind and solar, not JUST gas.
Anyone for one second believes governments are helping their citizens, well... come on board sheeple! Take a seat and put on these blindfolds, this will be fun.

Badland, spot on. The Tories have wanted it to sink since the 2016 referendum.
They wanted the GDP to tank and it certainly doing that now.
Saying a weak pound is good for export is utter BS, as we hardly export anything and all imports are really expensive.
Some one wants to make a quick earner like Soros did.

tricky125,
a) it's now Kyiv, that you very much. Only Liz Truss still calls it Kiev.
b) Putin may soon make it a holiday destination
c) nah, no c, That's all that I could muster in 'good taste' without offending a few

Lloyds, but that's THEIR system, not our's. To expect the Russian people to decry Putin will never happen, as you have just outlined about Speakers Corner, none such exists in Russia.
You cannot expect them to be held by our standards, just as we cannot accept what happens in Ukraine as 'normal' behaviour, least of all in 2022!!
We, as civilisation are devolving, we are losing they sense of right and wrong. Not on an individual basis, but as pack mentality. It's easier to run with the dogs than stand out against it.
The argument about imperial aspirations can be said about the US and historically the UK, France, Belgium etc.
Everyone wants their turn.

now censored? Ok, that makes sense.

Lloyds, by your definition then we are complicit in the crimes against civilians committed in Afghanistan and Iraq because our governments killed and tortured their people.
Abu Ghraib comes to mind, not to mention the UK soldiers murdering unarmed Taliban and the ****ing on them.
You are saying it's ok for us to do it but not them?
If you choose to be myopic so be it.
Holding the Russian people accountable for things that are happening in Ukraine is pretty stupid at best and ******ed thinking.
Almost like yo actually believe our media and government? After all the lies have been uncovered over the decades?
WMD's etc.
I do not believe the invasion of Ukraine was in any way justified, the same as the occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan. I hold all these at the same level. None of these acts were lawful, yet because they are on 'our side' it is ok?

...

The war will not end soon!
People are mis-reading the meeting between Xi and Putin as master and dog.
China is going through some pain with it's economy, Xi could care less. Russia is going through the same, Putin could care less. Russia is vast, people in the far Eastern parts of the country have bought the narrative and are 100% behind Putin. He will not back down, if anything Xi will embolden him. This is their opportunity to bring the West to it's knees. India, ****stan, Iran have now aligned themselves to that part of the world, most Arab nations are not on the West's side.
I know people In Russia, they are saying it looks bleak, but far worse than that, the majority of Russians, back Putin.
I also know the East's mentality, they see this as an economic opportunity to balance the field in their favour.
This will forever change the western economic landscape. We will no longer have the upper hand in business.
Just look at the PGA golfers and LIV. Money talks.
My opinion, based on my personal experience of people in those regions past and present.

Sundezena, in my opinion inflation will not fall off a cliff, as much as we wish it would. They have to wash away the £bns they printed.
With just the price of diesel way above the normal petrol price, this is enough to keep prices high. Goods are moved using diesel, if that does not come down these costs will be passed on to consumers.

Old news. Not just BA.
