Hi Serenity,


I have been made serene by your apology. Thank you. I would have replied earlier but have been sans forum for a few days so only heard of your new post late last night.


I was a rather upset by your post so your apology is most welcome. It's the first time I've been bitten in here, quite a chastening experience


For my own part in this mini-saga I must own up to being too blunt for my own good on occasion and was most definitely so in this case. I visited the FHT hungover, tired and for the fist time in over a year, with just my partner having dispatched the kids to nanny. My impression of the FHT suffered because of these factors and I could have been more tactful about what I said. I do agree, it's good to support new ventures, Good luck to you Kevin!


So, apologies all round. Will be happy to share some beers with you in FHT sometime soon Serenity. We could also have a slice or two of humble pie - if Kevin serves it.

I stopped in there after work this evening and had a lovely couple of beers in the garden. yes, it did used to be a car park and you can see the garage doors but come on .... we were outdoors on a lovely evening and the mood was good. Can't ask for more

Dear AP,


Thanks for accepting my apology. There is definately no neeed for humble pie (I think its around ?8 anyway!). Moreover, I promise not to bite in the future!


Hi Kevin! Nice to have you on board.


By the way, does anyone know when the new Italian is opening?

    • There is nothing in the budget to promote growth, which is what we desperately need. The wealthiest pay more already, with the higher rate tax. I’m sure they can afford £7.5k but we need to encourage successful people and business to invest and stay in the country. 
    • I went to a girls' public day  school in the fifties and sixties. The first school rule was "courtesy and consideration to others are expected at all times".  There was quite a high number of Jewish girls, both in the junior and senior school. I don't recall a single incident of anti-Semitism. Is this something confined to boys' schools, or was my school unusual?
    • The biggest problem in the UK is that we don't know if we want to be a European social democracy or the US when it comes to tax - and we are left with the worst parts of both. The US has a strong growth economy and incentives that has lead to high standards of living for the middle classes. Europe has high tax, but distributed fairly across different earners, and has lead to good public services and satisfaction for all. In the UK, we have an ultra-progressive tax with disproportionate burdens on high earners. But we have poor public services because that tax burden is not spread more fairly and is therefore limited. Meanwhile, high earners feel disincentivised to work and will suppress earnings to avoid tax traps.      
    • Why make it one property ? If own more that one property which together amount to over £2m then why should I escape this measure ? (I don't btw).
