25p CHOC BARS.

Yes I remember.
And I also remember when the bank manager (the old guy with a pipe) wouldnt lend you anything that you couldnt easily pay back.
Today you have to feel so sorry for young couples who have bought homes in the past 2 years. They have been "sold a pup".
The tv media must take some of the blame, with endless programmes hyping up property, and the general air of "you must get on the ladder now". These programmes should come with a health warning.
In future estate agents should be forced to show a history of British house prices to first time buyers, plus a history of price-to- earnings multiples. Estate agents can be pretty good at the old bull....
This would give first time buyers a much clearer picture of whether the price is cheap, fair, high or lethal. they can then make a better decision.
It would also stop the rest of us trying to enslave them.
The 400 grand London semi eh. 700,000 loaves, or 40 quid a brick, or 11 times the mans income....disaster.
If the poor old Conservatives came to power now, they'd have to try and sort out the biggest mess in history.
All the major banks in a virtual state of collapse, a continuing house-price fall, a debt balloon the size of Australia, rampant crime and disorder.
Bring back the old guy with the pipe, and the 25p choc bar.
PS...."Twister"...is that a choc bar or Gordon Browns nickname.
