:D


I thought I said that :?

It would have been awesome if he did though...

Well, well, well,... according to the Fam Gaz... Pres Nik is looking at a criminal inquiry...

President Anastasiades also pledged that the Cabinet will in the next few days appoint criminal investigators to look into responsibilities over the banking system near collapse.

“It won’t happen in other countries because their banking industries aren’t as unbalanced as in Cyprus,” Dijsselbloem told Dutch lawmakers in The Hague today, referring to the size of the financial sector compared with gross domestic product.

ok here we go:
Cyprus- 755%
Malta- 799%
Ireland- 839%
Luxembourg- 2572%

And lets not forget that financial disaster
Monaco- 2417%

I scrapped my last car in March 2001, have been using a bicycle ever since. When I need a car I rent one. I am looking for a folding bike at a discount if you know of one. Made anywhere but Germany.


Are we starting an Official CF Boycott German Goods campaign ... ???

Which car brands are European, but not German?

I can only think of Volvo... :shock:

man speak with forked tongue...

A senior eurozone figure on Monday suggested the plan to save Cyprus could serve as a template for rescuing other troubled EU states.
Under the terms of the Cyprus bailout, any savers with more than £85,000 deposited in either of the island’s two main banks - Laiki and the Bank of Cyprus - will lose between 40 and 100 per cent of their money.
In return for levying this ‘haircut' on deposits, Cyprus will receive the international funds necessary to keep its troubled banks afloat.
Jeroen Dijsselbloem, the Dutch chairman of the eurozone, suggested that this structure could become the model to be applied across Europe, where banks in Spain, Portugal and Italy are also in trouble.
“If there is a risk in a bank, our first question should be ‘Okay, what are you in the bank going to do about that? What can you do to recapitalise yourself?’,” he said.“If the bank can’t do it, then we’ll talk to the shareholders and the bondholders, we’ll ask them to contribute in recapitalising the bank, and if necessary the uninsured deposit holders.
“If we want to have a healthy, sound financial sector, the only way is to say, ‘Look, there where you take on the risks, you must deal with them, and if you can’t deal with them, then you shouldn’t have taken them on.”

Most children in Cyprus are overweight anyway. Also In Cyprus they can get by eating wild horta and they can grow beans did 1923 Germany have beans? Cyprus will have a gas bonanza. Worst case scenario people can always start eating their own children.
