Good bye answerbank

[mibn2cweus]

Since Naomi will not give me the ****ing key I have decided to follow Jesus and be a Christian just like Theland. I am ashamed of my past history here so I'm going to devote the time I used to spend on ab to reading the Bible. No question really because I no longer care about what people think. I'll get all my answers from God from now on thank you.

[Theland1]

China?

[Theland1]

Luna?

[naomi24]

China, I'll get back to you tomorrow. Too late to think too much now. (By the way, I thought the Bill Watterson quote very appropriate in your last post. Just about sums it up).

Theland, Ah, moi! The invisible woman! Now that's enigmatic. I like Mibs, China and Luna - spot on I'd say.

I'm off to Business & Finance now to see what you've been up to - and then to bed ....... see you (read you) in the morning.

Night everyone. Sweet dreams. x

Just a quickie Theland. I've had a word, and although it's not his area, he said have a look at

www.endowmentsurrenderplus

or any of the other regulated selling sites.

Currently they seem to be trading Norwich Union with profits endowments at around 17% above surrender value. However, I suspect the closer the policy is to maturity, the less the margin becomes. (You'll be able to find out the basic surrender value by approaching Norwich Union).

Have a look at

thisismoney.co.uk

It has a whole section about selling them on.

He said the only way you'll be able to get a true valuation is to approach one of the companies that buy them, and ask them how much they'll give you.

Night. x

[Theland1]

Thank you Naomi, I'll get right on to it.
(And thank you Mr 24.)

[Theland1]

Theland?

[China Doll]

Good God Theland No!! (Although I own the skirt but in a darker denim and slightly longer). Way,way off base.... I'd never wear that outfit.combinatioin, I'm at least ten years older, I'd say I was taller and she looks like she's brushed her hair today.

[China Doll]

I'd like to borrow Naomi's dress though....

[China Doll]

Mibs honey, the time it must take you to put those stars on would be better suited to just poking your head in and saying 'hello'... In my humble opinion anyway.

Besides, I don't like your rating system, you give me three stars whether I write tripe or something sensible so your system becomes meaningless as you can't possibly value my contribution. Unless you think it doesn't matter what I say as long as I say something; which either makes you a hypocrite since you yourself say nothing or insultiing as it doesn't matter whether it's tripe or sensible as it's all just the same mundane crap to you anyway.

Puts down the spoon as it looks like the brown stuff has been sufficiently stirred

[Theland1]

China, how about you finding a picture that roughly resembles you, and posting it on here?

[Theland1]

Naomi, I've browsed the sites you gave me and some good info there.
Norwich Union may be giving a windfall payout, so it would be as well to hang on for now.
I'll dig out the policy and ring the help line.

Homebase wrote to me - no vacancies but keeping my name on file.
No further news from Tesco I'm afraid.

[Theland1]

China mark 2 ?

[China Doll]

Much closer!!

I'm actually putting a shot of me in to one of those celebrity matcher thingies but if it comes up with anyone I'll be suprised.

[Theland1]

Regarding Mibs' occupation, I already inferred that he could be a technical author for the Department Of Work And Pensions, and it got me thinking of other possibilities.

Please add your own ideas, here are mine.

Instruction author for self build flat pack furniture units.

Lawyer.

College lecturer.

Senior civil servant, as in, "Yes Minister."

Stand up comic.

A millionaire who can afford to spend all day thinking about the nature of reality.

C'mon Mibs, give us a clue ......................................

[China Doll]

Erm... we're ranging from Calista Flockhart to Tina Turner here!

Let me have a think about it.

[China Doll]

Well lets see...

He's got a youthful outlook, he's knowlegeble about sciences and technologies, he's a smart arse, awful taste in music (sometimes)....

Lecturer/Teacher
Computery type person
Piano Tuner.

[Theland1]

Yes, he admires Arlo Guthrie.
Must have been a teeanager in the sixties.
Younger than me. I'd guess late forties, early fifties.
Computery? Yes, that's a goodun.
(Sympathetic to wine as well ...... )

[China Doll]

Ok... I've now come back with Stacy Kliber, Lindsey Lowhand, Sigorney Weaver, Mandy Moore, Julie Bowen or Kate Beckinsale.... This is really not working out for me!

[China Doll]

Ah... And there's me thinking late thirties!

Theland, I don't think I look like anyone particularly, certainly no one I can think of. I did consider sticking a link to the thingy I was using so you could see a little picture but I've decided it'd be way too scary for me so I'm going back under my rock.

[Theland1]

Aw c'mon China. Come back out from under the rock, and let's see you. Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease?
I promise to be a gentleman.
Only a lack of technical ability prevents me from posting my gob on here. What would I have to lose?
