Not seen him on the business forum since the big switch over. Is he on holiday or has he decided the new format isn't for him?

Eric seems to have gone, not sure if it was the new format or the way it was dealt with that made him move on.

The Business forum is still the Business forum, and threads about aeroplanes would be in The Lounge. A man with his analytical skills surely has no problem with that?

Actually threads about aeroplanes should be in the Boats, Planes & Trains forum. wink

I hope he is just on holiday, I used to enjoy reading his business posts.

He's gone to watch it of course! Outside is where all the accountants queue for 4 hours so they can show Darling their bookkeeping skills live. Tax Idol. It's the total highlight of the year smile



(sorry Eric!)

Hi

It was a combination of a concious decision to reduce my posting on PH (I am not a fan of the changes or the way they were implemented) and a ten day holiday.

I'll still be posting - just not as much.

I didn't miss the budget as where I was had access to UK TV and UK papers.

I didn't see the changes implemented as I've been on holiday myself - just got back to a bit of a shock!

Any cunning plans about to stop Darling's 50% raids?

Not seen anything especially credible so far so I guess its possible they've been thinking about this one for long enough to cover most options (my bet is Gordon's been planning it since '97!)

I've got as far as offshore bonds. Not very exciting.
As I understand it, all the Film partnerships etc are subject to disclosure to HMRC so it's looking a bit tricky now.
