British ex pats - Avoid paying tax on your UK income by working in a politically unstable and potentially dangerous country and then complain when the bombs start going off and the British Government don't lay on enough planes to get you home.

How can I not post about the changes that have been happening recently.  

God willing, democracy will come to the Middle East, and not through liberation with bombs, but due to the people of the Middle East rising up against the tyrants who oppress them.  And hopefully, not too many will die.  As I noted earlier, such a change will be interesting for Israel, but then, I want a fair and just peace for all in the Middle East.  Many people think that it is just about Jews and Muslims, but they forget the huge number of Christians who live there as well as those who follow what is considered to be the worlds oldest religion, Zoroastrianism.  Hopefully, any democracy that exists will flourish on respecting all, rather than the majority oppressing those considered to be the minority.  I understand why many in the Middle East doubt the commitment of the west to democracy, not just because of the way democracy in Iran was toppled in favour of a dictator because of oil, but the way the west worked to bring about democracy to Palestine, and then worked to overthrow it when a government that the US did not like was elected.

Henleys Estate Agent

Evening all.  

I was listening to the radio today and heard a comedy about estate agents.  Well, lets face it, they get a bad rap.  But I have to say, when we moved houses, we sold our house with a great estate agent.  I doubt many people will get the time to read this, or even care about a great estate agent, but if you are interested in one, Henleys in Colchester are brilliant.  They do not just serve Colchester, but the area in between Colchester and Ipswich as well.  When I look back at the time we spent trying to sell our house, part of me wishes that we had used them first of all as we used two other agents beforehand, neither of whom I would recommend.  Whereas Henleys were great, honest and they addressed people as individuals, not just treating them as a commission.

Anyway, if you are interested in some jokes about the crap estate agents...

What's the difference between Sperm and an Estate Agent ?

At least a sperm has a one in a million chance of becoming a Human Being. 

Two Estate Agents were on holiday in Africa, they were enjoying themselves and decided to take a closer look at the wildlife and maybe take some pictures.

All of a sudden a lion starts running towards them, the older EA starts running for his life but looks over his shoulder and amazingly the other younger EA is opening his bag and putting on a pair of Reboks.

He say's "What are you doing, you can't out-run a lion"

The other EA say's "Sod out-running the Lion, just as long as I out run you!!
