So what is Darling’s response to Obama’s initiative on the banks? - he is not going to take the lead being given and will simply carry on as before. Oh great! That’s really what we need - not.
One of the most alarming reports to come out of Government recently by an independent observer is the total disarray in terms of strategic thinking and policy formulation. Apparently it is total chaos. Now many of us looking from outside were inclined to this opinion but we put that down to political prejudice. But apparently we were correct in our appraisal.
Now if there is one thing worse than a Government whose policies you may disagree with it has to be a Government that has lost the will to govern and is thrashing about in its own sordid mess. Where are the measures and thinking that will take us out of this economic downturn and secure a better future? Brown is clearly useless as a PM and those around him are busy scrabbling for position when he takes a tumble and they can rip open the carcass.
Oh for a PM with some clear ideas and the balls to implement them!
“Oh for a PM with some clear ideas and the balls to implement them!”
yeah? well don’t look here…King O is probably a baller but there seems to be a loss on the clear idea part…those seem to be convoluted at best. If you’ve seen anything lately, Bernanke, Fed chair here, responsible for the mess we’re in and also for the great solutions to the issues he helped create– is now on the verge of not being reconfirmed by the 31st…another scrambling game in the world of finance…I do believe he will be confirmed so the world will be saved
I believe Urban Eric has the right idea….I gather there are enough Sheilas in the ‘bog’ to satisfy the antics of another couple…if that’s accurate I’ll send them down and he can keep these guys out of our hair.

You may have seen the pictures of me in the rehab clinic . Well this is the start of a new life for me as I rebuild the confidence of my adoring sponsors - frankly I need them to pay for the rehab in any case . I mean $10000 a day and no sex !!
Any way Ive been thinking about Arnie over in California who went into politics having been an actor or something . Well thats given me an idea that I could be the next PM in the Uk . I would be just what you guys over the pond need . Ive got balls ( so Samantha said ) and could put a smile back onto the face of at least the femail voters ,
What do you think .? Maybe if I could get a part in one of your upcoming porno movies then I could test the public reaction a bit more - and if you could ask around at the gatehouse and amongst the WI set and see what they think . Im up for this ( and most thngs actually !) so look forward to hearing from you

Just a thought Oldfart. You know our business plan for your pile to become the Oldboy Mansion a la Hugh Heffner’s Playboy Mansion(blog “Calling Time on the Banks”) Would your respondee Urban Eric be the right man to test market the concept in Oz? If so lets give himthe task. PS I’ve ordered some silk dressing gowns monogrammed OF so you look the part .
Watcher Oldfart I’ve just seen your great plan to set up Oldboy Mansion in competion with Hugh Heffner. I have considerable experience these establishments. Give us a call if you need any guidance.
Gooday mate ( just practising my Aussie twang!) fancy a tinny
Well Im up for anything with the Aussie chicks as you you know mate so when I see old Fred talking about testing out the OldBoy Mansion idea in Aus well Im up for it cobber . But like I live a sheltered live here in Lambeth and well Im not right sure what you want me to do .
I did get in touch with Bruce and Shiela in Aus , good mates of mine and they reckon the shielas down there are well a bit frisky . Bruce rekons though that most of the mens clubs and that are a bit classy . Is that what you are thinking of with your old pile or something for blokes like me . I reckon with the silk dressing gowns you are thinking classy but let me know .
He also reckons that the old blokes down under are into Viagra big time like cause the shielas are so frisky they have to . He knows a bloke who wants to set up a business selling viagra through machines like you used to get chewing gum in and he wants to know if you would be up to investing a few quid .
Anyway like I said Im up for helping you on this and I had a word with me old mate Ron the fixer and he got me a load of viagra seconds to take . He reckons cause they are seconds they dont work so well so Ive started taking them one week before getting to Aus so watch out all you shielas !!!
Ill be in touch to let you know how I go mate !
Eric
