      Have been pound cost averaging into cider. £5 a pint in some pubs. Others a more reasonable £3.

      On the lookout for mulled cider now winter is finally here. Seen it in one place so far.

      House prices ... looks like Gordon Brown was right after all, no more boom and bust.
      Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.

              Bridge Street market in the East End.

              But their main problem will be one of supply, those of course demand will tail off too. Government will increase more money supply through waves of QE and BoE will drop interest rates to support Bridge Street market. It won't help much but will provide a bottom for the prices, though I don't expect punters to dive in and buy.

                If housing market does not correct and after this potential bust we don't see a more fair capitalism I am seriously considering going and living in the woods.

                  Everyone is expecting money printing. Everyone is expecting Gold to go through the roof.

                  I'm betting neither of those two things happen in the near to medium term.

                    Gold probably not yet but they'll be printing money faster than speed of thoughts.

                    Let's see US market open, THAT is where all the recessions start from. The core of the financial system.

                    But from how it looks there is an only one way it is going from here.
