Given the parlous state of the markets it’s good to find a win-win strategy that actually works!

Not me. Only had one wife…. and I still have her.

And I have been doing frantic calculations and then heaving a sigh of relief; for one awful moment I wondered whether I have been conversing with my first husband…

No cloning here Chenier, I’m into materials science.
Basically I spend my time trying to stop things corroding.

…but if your scientific experiments really are directed at cloning investment bankers, I might be able to persuade some fellow posters to form a human pyramid with me at the apex so I can shout at you…

Well, I’m certainly not going to argue with someone who is 6ft 3in, 205 pounds, 36 inch waist, not least because I would have to stand on a ladder in order to do so at eye level…

Mr Beckham needs England like a fish needs water without it he cannot breath self-publicity and swim around looking for ever more lucrative endorsements and advertising deals. The label of yesterdays hero and aging has been are hardly positives for the Brand Beckham cause, hence his manic desperation to continue playing for England! It’s all about money, ego and self publicity folks, Oh and a nice undeserved Knighthood would be very nice!

I feel your pain…

Thank you; I think I now have a glimmer.

Milan is the Uber-fashionista centre of Italy…

Really wants to get more caps than Shilton doesn’t he?
He knows he wont get picked for England if he’s not playing regular first team football, or so Cappello said, and with the Galaxy ending their season very soon he wont be.
He’s either really into playing for his country or he’s a shameless fame seeker who just wants to get the most caps and go down in history (Arise Sir David).
I’m not sure which.
I know I would have done almost anything to play rugby for England had I been a good enough player.

Another reason to steer clear of Italy, o feathered friend.

They shoot pigeons, don’t they?
