That's inflation for ya!!!


Good grief, how's that for inflation, Steve Austin, once the 6 million dollar hero on our screens was battling baddies, risking his life, climbing, jumping, scaling you name it he's do it. Oh how times have moved on. Marc Bolland the new boss of M & S moves into his new very expensive leather chair to replace Sir Stuart Rose at a cost of £15 million quid for year one. Yes I did say that right...£15 million quid!!! What do we get for our money sir. Well you don't get bionic legs, a bionic arm but what you do get is a bionic eye. Well not really a bionic eye but an eye for detail from Mr Bolland. he rescued Morrison's from the depths of trouble and no doubt he will do the same for M & S. Mr Bolland I tip my hat to you and wish you every success for the future because your gonna need it if you don't deliver the goods, all 15 million of them!!!

Signed, sealed, delivered, I'm yours...now


Sorry I've been away ladies and gentlemen. This has been partly down to busy work schedule and laziness but what better way to kick back in eh!

Well I did warn you all didn't I and don't say I didn't. I didn't have a crystal ball but I do know when bad things are going to happen especially like Cadbury's. The investors thought, "eh up, cash in me shares, keep me villa in Spain and might treat the family to a new car...splendid". Shysters, that's all they are!!! You all sold out on a 200 year old British company to a bigger company that will claw back their 7 Billion pound money any way they can. Job losses, pension cuts, lack of training and most of all, the possibility of moving the whole kit and caboodle to another country. I know it won't be next week but in time the hammer will fall.

If you are a business man reading this, please be warned, Britain is not for sale it never will be but everyone has a price and the greedy people out there will take their cut and damn the rest of us. If you are a Cadbury's shareholder however...think of any of the workers who return home from work soon to say to their family...I've just been made redundant!!! Think you can live with that?
