Well, I can't see us taking over a quarter of the world anytime soon. Also, we have quite a few problems in the western world. I think that one of the Arab states will be after China.
-
Maybe, well all I can say is that we won't be the superpower for about another 500 years!
-
I would hedge my bet on China because even though they are not exceedingly developed, they have the largest population in the world and they are developing at an exceedingly fast rate. If they are indeed to become the next superpower, then what will be the communist impression they give to the world, it would change everyone's lives, I can say that much.
-
Very true. I suppose that we will never know what the world would be like if America wasn't the superpower.
-
So would I to tell you the truth but I just don't like the idea of Britain being the lapping dog of America which is the popular opinion of most people.
-
Fair point, fair point. However, there have been many, to say the least questionable descisions made by the British government involving America.

I wasn't aware that they were disabled. First of all they shut down msn chat and now this. -
I wonder what the country would be like if she was actually a good Prime Minister.
-
Well, you either love her or you hate her. Ane I don't really like her simply because she couldn't run a funrun never mind a country!

Wow i've never seen one of these for sale before
Half Penny Jon replied to Sylvester's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I would have to agree with you there, they probably didn't have the technology to actually put the coins in their cases of issue without touching them. So, in theory, the early proof sets can never be FDC? Chris, we need your opinion here! -

Half Penny Jon replied to Sylvester's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Even so, After 178 years, someone must have taken the coins out at some point, even to just look at them. So I imagine that there are very few untouched examples. -
I don't hate her, I just don't agree with some of the things she did during her term.

William maybe indeed right in saying that it may be the only surviving example in FDC if it is FDC that is. -

Definately, you can have your own profile with a picture of your choice. You also have a display picture as well as many other features. (Sorry Chris if this seems like msn advertising but I have no intention of drawing attention away from here). Penny Master. -
