Looks like the dark haired girl is about to fire off a text on her iPhone... The guy's saying "Right, I'm going to stick his burnt sienna where the sun don't shine" -

Pity the pictures don't expand - it will be really nice to see those bigger as it looks a real beaut. -

They don't call him the "Victorian pencil" for nothing! Thank gawd he's gone, though I'd prefer even him to Cruella Braverperson. -
1969 coin prices
Peckris 2 replied to david.bordeaux's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I bought a 1919KN from a schoolmate. My first dealer purchase was a silver 3d (GV) dated perhaps 1933? which was at least EF and cost me around 6d of my 1968 pocket money! -
1969 coin prices
Peckris 2 replied to david.bordeaux's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
A year later, the 1970 Coins and Medals Annual (later to morph into the Coins Market Values annual) listed some interesting prices, including the following two: 1932 penny BU ..................... £50 (probably around £500 at today's RPI?) 1797 twopence BU .............. £35 The 1932 penny has probably doubled in price, i.e. a long way behind inflation, whereas a genuine BU 1797 would probably fetch £1000 in that grade. -
Precisely NO-ONE has said that. Everyone apart from Truss has talked about regularly reviewing the situation.

It's nothing to do with philosophy - if in the event fuel costs go back to what they were within a year, then the 2 year promise is indeed unrealistic. Ok, it might not - probably won't - happen but a review every 6 months would certainly keep an eye on what's needed.

That's fascinating - I have a farthing of the same date with exactly the same effect (even more dramatic?): -

Bl00dy reporters have a lot to answer for. That widely quoted £2,500 figure isn't the price cap, which is actually applied to the price per unit. The figure is just an average - some people will use more and have higher bills, others less. As for April 2023 - it makes sense to review the whole situation then, as the cost of fuel may have sharply decreased by then. A two-year promise of help was always barmy.

Doctor: "Who's the Prime Minister?" Patient: "Er.. um.. er.." Doctor: "Who's the Chancellor?" Patient: "Er.. um.. er.." Doctor: "Who's the Home Secretary?" Patient: "Er.. um.. er.." Doctor: "Ok, you've passed - you don't have Alzheimers" -
