I am so glad that we are no longer inundated with adverts to buy our gold and silver bullion thanks to the price of gold falling. I find it so offensive. They make it sound like they will give you loads when the reality is they will give you a fraction of what it is really worth. [...]
If you see nags head realty obx here you will realise just what the economy is doing to the world currently. Prices of property that has been foreclosed costs peanuts. The shame is that I do not have any nuts to buy anything. If I could I would just buy some of these properties and have what [...]
Spring is in the air and it means it is time to tend the garden. And then you find that over winter your chairs and table disintegrated, your mower gave up the ghost, your shed door fell off (really) and your water hose makes a great sprinkler. I mean seriously do we have to buy [...]
