That is around the price I'd like it for tomorrow. Hubby wants to join in as a one off with this months army pension :-)

A report from 2019 the one of this year will be worse and good luck to those trying to rent over there. Lack of property causes the prices to rise. Square metre of rent in : https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2019/12/30/pove-d30.html This is just one report of many who all read pretty much the same. Here you can have a play with rental properties. Its one of the easiest sites for non Germany speakers to manouvre https://www.iamexpat.de/housing/rentals. The same apartment I rented as a student in the 1980s for DM 320 per month is now costing 780 Euro per month, in the old DM that would be around 1520. It still only has one room, one bathroom, one kitchen and I didn't study in one of the elitist universities. Please note that everything doubled in price the morning after the Euro was launched. I remember that very well. I was when it happened.

Yes @Figgy, I'm deadly serious. Germany has approximately 3000 billion debt.

Figgy, when Merkel started, Germany had about five Food Banks in the entire country. Today Germany has over 1200 Food Banks. Child poverty is worse than in Britain and pensioner poverty is something that Germans have become accustomed to. Yet her government says that things were never as great and people were never so well off in Germany, as they are today. Well, here my childhood experience:
Dad worked full time, mum from home as a seamstress, because she wanted, not because she had to. We were four children. We had our own house, two cars, went on holiday twice a year. When I moved out, I opened the local newspaper, ticked five of the flats to rent I was interested in and moved in the same evening. Today Germany is short of approximately 5 million units of accommodation. After having taken in around 1.7 million under 'wir schaffen das' in one month in 2015 the amounts of migrants have now gone done to about 400 per DAY only ;-)

Figgy...Merkel is NOT a female leader. She is a trained socialist with ambitions that would the likes of Lenin, Stalin and Mao shiver in their graves from fear. Angela Merkel was raised in former East Germany and she never has been, was, is or will be a democrat, let alone understanding the concept of free decision making. She grew in a system in which national socialism was carried on, the GDR (German Democratic Republic), which everything BUT that bit in middle of the title and she is a strong believer in Global Socialism. As I don't think she kept get getting voted into power, because the majorities of Germans fancy watching a nutcracker making speeches, that starts to suffer from violent shakes every times it hears its own Anthem, I have no idea why she still is in power. Germany is economically one of the poorest countries within in EU, measured by the individual wealth and ownership of property, Germany is pretty much on the level of a Third World Country.

Let me rewrite that. My keyboard is worn out:
"t's is weird but true, Figgy. Most later car manufacturers started off making sewing machines. They watched as the fabric (the ground) ran along, the 'foot' and the cogs below makes the 'ground' move and thought: Why don't we turn this into something bigger. The first driver of a motorised vehicle, was a woman, btw. Mrs Benz. The inventor, her husband, didn't dare driving it of fear it might explode :-)

Figgy, do you know the saying: "Runs like a sewing machine" that's where this saying is coming from.

It's is weird but true, FGT. Many later car manufacturers started off making sewing machines.

expru, Triumph was also a sewing machine. Same company ;-) https://www.sewingparts.co.uk/triumph.html

expru, I even remember a Talbot being a car. A Welsh one, but it was a car lol :-) but surely RR is different calibre than all of them. I for one only know Triumph as a sewing machine and my mother, who was a seamstress preferred Singer and Pfaff.

And sorry, for the off-topic post. I wish us few Amigos had a group in which we can discuss and propel new investment ideas and exchange research.

Figgy, how can RR not survive? Not only is it too big to fail in what it does, apart from cars, but it also is part of heritage. Call me nostalgic or whatever you want, but only RR managed to evolve into a lot more than just cars. BMW, Merc, VW, Opel/Vauxhall (GM) didn't do it. RR is a one off in that respect.

Give me another two days of low, so I can top up and spread my average cost :-)

I'm also thinking of buying into RR. They suddenly became affordable, but I haven't yet figured out why.

I'm not worried. Everything is sliding down. Just looked at the indices, oh my word :-) It has to do with fears of another lockdown.

Thanks, Figgy. That is good news for me. Keep it low, even drop further, then I can top up in about a week :)

I have voiced my suspicion that there could be manipulation going on only yesterday or the day before. I have this strange feeling that the current BoD might want to sink Amigo.

But seriously, I getting the feeling that some folks who swan in here don't appreciate how much difference 1p up or down makes for us who are invested. Unless I can snap up some more in a few days for around 10p or less, anything below an SP of 30p would be a loss for me.

Figgy, that sound like a perfect script for a new Blackadder Episode lol :D

And that invasion is the reason why you call yourself "Viking", Viking? :)

Cando, at least in the UK you get taught about far back history. Where I orginally come from history lessons are pretty much reduced to 12 years :)
