"Donations" to site upkeep?

Dear Webmaster,
I am NOT a grumpy old woman by nature but, every morning I log on, find AND welcome new viewers to GC - and take a glance at the donations £ amount. Sadly, it seems not to have moved from £40 in the last week. Surely, one or two of these "can I tap your knowledge " wallahs must have a bit of a conscience??

 

The donation box doesn't show the cheques & luncheon vouchers that are sent in too.

Last week we got tickets to see The Hoosiers too

 

The 'newbies' probably expect Me to pay them for the advice i give....

 

Like the time you told someone the best way of getting rid of greenfly on roses was with a blowlamp?

 

We can take Cheques, Postal Orders, Travellers Cheques, Bankers Drafts & all major currencies except new Drachmas.

Food and seed parcels are also welcome, and Armandii is quite partial to Hobnobs.

Just pm me for details if you are kind enough to donate

 

Except new Drachmas? Come Ziggy, tell us all.What do you know that the PM or Chancellor don't?

 

Just off to watch Robert Peston "The great Euro Crash".

 

Greece will have little choice but to withdraw from the euro, when they print the new Drachma it will start off at a 1 euro = 1 Drachma but will immediately plummet in value.

The resulting panic on the banks will force them to close for some days to stop everyone withdrawing everything, the financial repercussions will cost the rest of Europe at least One Trillion Euros, so it would be better for all of europe to put its hands in its pockets before it happens, have a whip round & give Greece Half a Trillion euros right now with no strings attached.

Then Greece could get back on its feet, we ( the rest of Europe) could go there for a holiday, secure in the knowledge that there would be no more riots or austerity. We'd spend money, Greece will be back in the Economy & we'll have saved half a Trillion Euros.

 

I may get shot down by some of you for saying this but, IMHO, the likes of Greece prefers to spend most of its time lying down as opposed to being "back on its feet".

 

Greece was the cradle of civilised Europe. They introduced Democracy to the World, Demos-People, Kratos-Power.

They built a civilisation fueled by Olive Oil, became masters of the Sea, Art, Liturature & Science.

Will the rest of Europe stand by & let them flounder?

 

Oh dear, Ugg Boots Pornski, yes I think they will,

 

As I posted in one of Dims conspiracy sites/posts
Our local paper mill provides the special paper for printing bank notes and they have all been called in for overtime again, first time in Months
