The figures are right, you're maths is wrong 2959.82 up to 3082.4 = 4.1%

I had no idea at the time of purchase.

The effects of natural climate change are just something we've got to get used to. Whatever we do will have no influence.

Who is the Alex you keep talking about all the time?

We're both wrong, it's up just over 4%. As for the spread of my portfolio and the loss i took on HMV you have no idea. The HMV loss was more than compensated for by the gain i made on Arian Silver.

There's nothing wrong with Luke - very good quality, but not good enough for a fancy dress party.

It's the same doctors and surgeons, but the stay is just more pleasant. Instead of sharing a ward with people like Tim and eating mince ad tinned peas, i get a private room with satelite TV and an excellent menu.

The FTSE all share is up just over 3% for the past month, so saying i've "just about matched the market" shows that you're not very bright. What figures are you using Mr Know It All?

We'll see. I notice you fail to mention Arian Silver (40% rise), Silver Spruce (11% rise), Coal of Africa (14% rise), Cable and Wireless W (6% rise), North American Palladium (13% rise), Prudential (12% rise). HMV was a disaster, but it undervalued and has been severely shorted. At some stage it's going to deliver a tidy profit - 20p would be the point i'd consider dipping my toes again.

Dignity is one i think is worth looking at... It's a bit of a morbid one, but people are always going to die so it's not going to lose it's customers (well it is but you know what I mean)

I'm watching it for now. I've done very nicely with Arian Silver and am happy with my prudential shares and M&S shares. HMV was a disater though.

No, I got out. I think there could a be a quick profit to be made, but too risky. You win some you lose some, but i'm not chasing it.

I'd be supportive of privatisation. We'd get a far better (cheaper) deal by opening health care up to market competition. Also I already have private health care insurance so why should I pay into the NHS?

You cheeky ****. These are my views. Eagles fly high and sheep flock together.

I think these look pretty smart. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/WOW-knitted-CHRISTMAS-Jumper-Cardigan-M-14-LOOK-/390272831865?pt=Men_s_Clothes&hash=item5ade12d179

I'll be wearing a stone island jacket and a burberry scarf and a father Christmas hat.

To put it bluntly the whole Man Made Global Warming con is about scientists/businesses keeping the gravy train going, and Socialists loving the taxation opportunities - the climate change hoax perfectly fits their ideological desire to control. You've also got the cranky left wingers that love a to have a cause to support. If they weren't getting in a tiz over this they'd be out saving whales or living in tree houses on proposed bypass routes.

You don't have to throw a paddy. Just learn to accept that you're not always right.

Of course it will, it responds to the weather outside which affects the temperature inside.

Weather patterns can changes over time. Climate can change over time. Weather can be the weather today or tomorrow. Climate can be the cimate today or tomorrow.

Both can be local and global because they are both the same thing. If I spend a few in Kartoum acclimatising to the heat i'm getting used to the hot WEATHER. Climate = Weather. You can talk about a wet climate or an arid climate or a micro climate - all terms that describe the weather.

Badger can you explain to us why all this cold weather means it's getting warmer despite the CRU citing mild winters as a clear indicator of global warming?

Of course it will be. St George posts facts - Climate Comrades hate that.

St George, the weather no longer has anything to do with the climate. The climate comrades have yet to explain this, and it certainly goes against the brilliant report you've posted, but i'm sure that we'll get an explanation because they have an answer for everything.
