1. day, and to get started 1. thread.

[larvidchr]

I am still a relative newcomer here on TD but I admire the wit ,the qualified advice, and the excellent points of view that comes on the posts. The member banter is great and sometimes a flak jacket is not enough, but everyone gives as good as they get. I think like most of us you will enjoy it on here and I am pleased to make your acquaintance.

Likewise media, but I think I will leave the flak jacket at home and take my chances, the old types I used to wear gave sore collarbones, I hope for our young warriors sake they are better now a days

[larvidchr]

Well done, lvc. You've ventured into the dark part of the forum. Now I don't need sunglasses in order to converse with you.

I don't know NR, you might need them anyway some of us Scandinavians are really white you know!

[larvidchr]

So......this is a newbie thread where we can hurl insults and abuse?

Welcome to the board you snotty-nosed heap of parrot droppings.

welcome! your father was a hamster and your mother smelt of elderberries!

or was it the other way round?

anyway, enjoy!

as far as my dear old Mother is concerned I think it is Gin Tonic, but bless her she is getting on so why not and my Father has unfortunately been dead for years so I imagine he is no Chanel No.5 by now.

* Ah, so it should be your mom smells of juniper berries.
Any news of Scandinavian bank failures? Someone sent me a slide show featuring Norway's village funds being crushed by their investments in shady SDO funds. Is that true? I am actually interested how Britain is getting fired up at Iceland's govt (not Scandi, but fek, it's a winter wonderland, too) coz three of its banks failed and many British community groups have basically lost their cash in them. Mr Brown wants Iceland to pay them back. C'mon, where's Reykjavik gonna get that kinda cash? Selling ice to the eskimos?

^ Prove your worth, Media. Nobody gets points for doing a momo suckyup. Sorry.

And how does one do that then?

"Hi, I'm mediaman. I have only read a few posts. I already think that Marmite is a mophead." Or something like that.

[Mr Pot]

Just Pm'd you a nic just created

I know a major Danish insurance company has been in trouble and a few small Banks, what happens in Norway I don't know except they have money enough in the Norwegian Central Bank to bail out whoever might need it if they choose to do so, remember Jet, Norway is member of OPEC, they are swimming in it (money I mean).

We do include Iceland in the Scandinavian brotherhood, but they seem to have turned to Russia lately, they have developed into a sort of offshore tax heaven for dubious Russian moneys, and I saw today in the news that they have asked Russia for a substantial loan so maybe that's how they are going to try to pay the British community groups back although I think it is unlikely they will do so, maybe they will send a couple of million tons Cod instead . My dear old Mother told me about a young couple of friends from Iceland studying in Denmark, they where normally getting 28.000 Dk. Pr. month (study aid), when they changed their Icelandic kroner to Danish Kr., but now they where getting less than half that due to the depreciation of the Icelandic Krone so they would properly have to end their studies and return to Iceland, and that is a bit sad because all this economic turmoil is not their fault.

[Mr Pot]

Just searched KW, says your still banned

[Jet Gorgon]

^^ Interesting, Larv. Pity about the kids and their studies; hopefully they will find another way to continue.
Cod? I thought they were mostly depleted from overfishing by the Portuguese?

HI I'm mediaman. I have only read a few posts, but I've already learnt that it is not a good move to "suck up", better to slag off Marmite instead. Thanks for the sound advice Jet!

[Jet Gorgon]

^ Oh no! I don't believe you did that. Expect red-coloured incoming from Marmers. I just gave you a back up green for marmer missile deflection.

[mediamanbkk]

Thank you for the green Jet. (Is that classed as a "suck up" also?)

[Jet Gorgon]

^ No, it's called one free grenade to help save your sorry a**. And you're welcome.

[nedwalk]

better to slag off Marmite instead.
