even I can deduce that a business which haemorrhages money at double the rate it did last year to the tune of 2Bn smackeroonies is most definitely circling the drain.

Firstly can I say that I hope you have all had a very merry Xmas and are now preparing for a very happy New Year.
Secondly I must thank OZ, Jay Dubya, Bearsy, Boadicea, El Dubya and Nym for a very difficult job as da judge. I was a shade disappointed to see no entry from Minty MBE but Xmas can be a very busy time after all. Read more…
