Yes, yes I would. It would be the first Albion legend t-shirt I've worn since the Johnny Crumplin Football Genius one.

Fair. But I stand by it. Am genuinely excited.

Absolutely agree. Possibly my favourite ever meal. Is this a traditional Bavarian dish though or is it typical across the great nation? I have this week been invited to Nacht der Tracht at the famous Lowenbrau Keller in Munich and as exciting as that is, the prospect of some decent Bavarian...

You said it was a problem, and the living in a tent comment. You have also brought this up several times before.

The trend is your friend.. until the bend at the end.

Thank you for your response and apologies for the slowness of mine but I have been away from my pc. Several points to address. 'Non-property inflation' is of course correlated to house price inflation but there is no reason why the two should move in line together. Why should the price of...

Why do you think prices are over-inflated? How did this happen and why doesn't it correct itself? Also interested to know why you think prices should not rise.

Very good of you Uncle S many thanks. But at no point have you actually addressed the point I was making that why do you feel somehow sorry for those potential first time buyers that can no longer get 95% mortgages? Given the current economic environment it is right and proper that banks demand...

Indeed. And recent Land Registry data shows London prices up 8.4% last 12 months.

Oh ok, so when you wrote this; Perhaps I have not got my head around this, but it seems to me that your insightful analysis points us in the direction that if people BUY and then LET that property out to other PEOPLE, then they are fuelling the BUY-to-LET market. Have I got that right? Maybe a...

You are way off the mark here Uncle C, bushy never had any street cred.

Phew!

Boo hoo for them. Why in this country should we assume the right to buy our first house whenever we choose regardless of our financial circumstances?

You sound embittered because you have missed the boat, if so then you have nobody to blame but yourself. I worked hard to get on the property ladder in 2000 and luckily didn't listen to doom sayers like yourself. I bought my first buy to let in 2001 and have bought and sold several properties...

Thankfully we have beorthelm, the voice of reason on these threads.

That's the sort of "Me Me Me" attitude that got this country into such a mess.

In. Top work Tay thx.

That's good news. I've not had an e-mail but hopefully the balance will be there when I log on (which I can't do from work pc).

I stopped playing when in went to poker stars so have voted FT and will try to get online again if you switch back. I had about £50 in my FT account when it went down. Will I ever see that again?

It strange because Carson Yeung doesn't sound dodgy at all... At age 16 he lived in London. At age 19 he returned to Hong Kong to work. Up until the 1990s he was in a Tsim Sha Tsui barber shop called "Vanity", and was trained as a hairdresser. Yeung did not begin his investment career until he...
