Fear creeps in.

[Paul]

IF the middle East kicks off, I'm wondering just how fast it'll impact on us.
I'm not alone though.
I was talking to a group of pensioners last night and they started to talk about fuel prices, etc.
Winter is coming so I wasn't surprised.

Then one lovely old dear brought up the middle east.
It's still surprising to me how world events are watched by this age group but the conversation was startling.

Out of the seven OAPS present, they all expressed FEAR (I write that in capitals because that was the word used) in what is coming about.

They see it as fuel and food costs rocketing even if nothing happens.
Personally I think they are right but tacked onto the conversation was:-
1. The riots have taken place in Portugal and Spain AGAIN and
2. The Euro being propped up by just about every money lender from "Sid's loans" (I had to laugh at that one) to the World Bank leading to
3. Stocks and shares are rising.

As one acidly pointed out, "It's all building up to a huge fall".

Interesting to know that the older generation have a handle on things even if not a lot of people i.e. TPTB bother listening to them.
