always good to have cash in the bank !!

Even better to have it stashed at home, up to a point admittedly.

I was working for someone recently who offered cash, but they need taken to a bank to swap to current notes :laugh1:

 

He obviously has a suitcase full of the stuff, and the paper notes are no longer tender

Old story but impressive how Woking council  managed to get £1.2 billion in debt in real estate investments?

 

WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM

Previous Tory leadership embarked on risky investment spree involving hotels and skyscrapers

 

 

I thought property was a good investment?

It was the interesting form of accounting that was used to reborrow money. Also I'm all for renewable energy but the chief exec dreamed up a scheme whereby reported savings from RE were taken out of the general account and used to invest in more RE which was a bit of a stretch. This funded firms which were owned by the council to do developments like the gas powered CHP electric car charging power station.

 

I would love to know if the chief exec's emoluments and pension were in any way linked to the size of his budget.

 

The interesting thing will be who will buy the tower block that cost £700M of borrowed money and has now been written down to £250M?

 

I'm particularly miffed that a piece of wild wet heath  was urbanised with lakes and paved walk ways in order for the new occupants of the tower block to exercise, which they were free to do anyway.

Looks like that unaccountable organisation just doesn’t like being wrong. As much as I am no Lineker fan they chased him for over 5 years and lost. I wonder if it were not taxpayer funded would they still try and chase it. My case was 4 years and the end result is my tax contributions are now 25% or less of what they were prior to the investigation 👍👍well done Hmrc.

The only silver lining is that we are ‘keeping our powder dry’ so to speak. The oil will still be there when all this nonsense is finished with and we really need it.

Do you reckon the offshore wind-sector will be good for the NE of England in terms of jobs? I've heard that that windfarm they're building off the coast of Shields could become a bit like Nissan was - Everyone knew someone who worked for Nissan.

Do you think an Independent Scotland would go for more or less new oil projects?
