12 - 18 months really is a crystal ball jobbie. Even a change of government may not necessarily mean a change of fortune as the nation's too deep in hock.

As for the present, you're living in the wrong area Jase. 104.9 is highest round here and I've seen 100.9 whilst out and about.

Hopefully with about 200bhp, less rust, and supported by a still loving wife and children :D
As the great man said "We're here for a good time, not a long time"

12 - 18 months time hmm.

Petrol prices seem to be spiralling out of control again as you say Jase and no-one seems to be noticing as they are all too wrapped up in ex's.... a good time to bury bad news. I suspect that there will be a lot of hidden bad stuff over the coming months.

As for elections.. Mr Brown wont get booted out by anyone in his own party as they are all scared to take the job in case they lose and they have shot their bolt. Far better for the schemers in there to wait til Gordon loses it, then oust him and recoup or if by some strange fluke of fate he wins, then get rid. God help us all if that happens.

Ecomony is fragile and whereas some signs exist to say that areas are bouncing back, the underlying trend is still downwards with companies lookign to reduce debts and cut costs/increase margin where possible. More jobs will go and it will take a very long time to recover, let alone for the country to pay off the huge debts that have been racked up.
