Guest Had Enough Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 pelmetman - 2014-05-30 7:32 PM Had Enough - 2014-05-30 7:21 PM Yes, I'm high on the defeat of socialism (wherever it's been tried) and high on the success of capitalism which, for all its faults ( and no system is totally free of defects) has produced richer and freer societies all over the world. I traveled on the Trans-Siberian to Mongolia and China a few years ago and rural Russia still hasn't recovered from the blight of the collective farms and the vile pollution of its cities. You better avoid London then ;-) As its apparently worse than Beijing................anything those dam Communists can do...... You Capitalists can do better eh? (lol) (lol) (lol)............. Quite right, there's no smog in Chinese cities. God forbid! (lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pelmetman Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Had Enough - 2014-05-30 7:34 PM Where have I ever said that being a camera salesman is something of note? I haven't sold a camera in decades, I'm an administrator. But I've had some satisfaction in starting from nothing and having a successful small business that will turn over ten mill this year and employs fifty people. And yes, the job of a businessman is to buy as cheaply as possible and to sell as high as possible. If you'd realised that earlier on you might have had a bit more success. Regrettably though there's always fierce competition, which means that we have to be competitive and sell at very low margins on certain things. It's called the market and it's what ensures that no one can make silly money. There's always someone willing to try working on a bit less. How did your business go Pelmetman? We must have started about the same time. We must compare! But mine is by any definition a small business and I recognise that. And, as for your cheap jibe, I'm no photographer, why should I be? I have some superb people who, as you've noted, can teach it. But in the early days when it was necessary I was an expert on equipment and its use. That's what customers wanted and they got it. But the picture I took of the camel in Morocco was a quick snap on a compact digital camera. But I note again that having lost the argument about the wonders of socialism, you've resorted to these silly tactics. It was ever so. :-( Oh dear getting all defensive now Frank.............. Its OK for you to belittle other people, but should they dare to denigrate you *-)................... but your right.....it was a cheap jibe............although frankly Frank you deserved it............your inability to accept another persons point of view, is without doubt your most annoying character trait :-|.................and is why I would suggest these threads often descend into bitch'fests ;-)............... As for my business..........I'm pleased to report I turned over even less last year...............but as we are now in receipt of pensions I'll need to earn even less this year to avoid paying tax :D............ But if you like financing the breeding habits of Eastern Europeans, feel free.............but as far as I'm concerned there's more than enough people on this planet :-|.............

Wills Wagon Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 What is going on? This thread is supposed to be about Calais and risks for motorhomers. Why can't the idiots who stray onto other subjects get a twitter account. It would suit their mentality. I am coming back through Calais next week and would like to have some up to date information. Not all the crap some of it years old. How relevant is that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had Enough - 2014-05-30 7:21 PM You may have visited a few ex-commie countries but I did business with them and saw it when it was real, and it wasn't pleasant.
