Isn't "Normal" a relative term? ;)

Its not a question of celebraties or normal people..

Day in day out i see people with tiny sexy bodies.. and i love it.. thats my type of women yours is diferent.. which is why we are all unique...

Your cant go around stereotyping people because theyre thin or fat lol..

For me i dislike slightest fat on my women but thats my prefrence, i use dislike not as a nasty term but as its not my type of women..

So keira can come in my bed anytime :)

When i chose to post keira i should of used a nicer picture but i didnt want you saying shes fit.. and in all honesty i cant believe you said "who" lol

For me, it's a case of them being the same sizes as children, and if they've "mown the lawn" then that just makes it seem wrong to me. Also, as young girls are following suit with these "size zero" women, how can you tell who's legal and who isn't? :confused

Anywan, £2billion taken out by Northern Rock customers!!! That's a lot of cash!!!! :eek:

Crumbs, back on topic. :)

Yes, £2 Billion is a lot of money and this will probably seal the fate of Northern Rock. Looks like the mob will not be satisfied until the company is split up and the mortgage book sold off and this will have cost hundreds, possibly thousands of jobs.

Did anyone see on the news before regarding people trying to draw their money out online only to be told the service is too busy.. at 3-4am in the morning.. something wrong there...

I doubt id trust my money in a bank that has taken a loan out to recover itself..

Those people who queued up at Northern Rock around the UK could crash the stock market and the property market … If UK property crashed 30% which it could do… (see the state of the US housing market and Spain) those that queued could expect to lose an average of £60,000 off their houses because they panicked …..withdrawing a few thousand each.
Fine, except that their actions will make us all suffer- we lose because they panicked.. Just like the dot com bubble sheep before the internet was ready….. and so many other times it’s happened before.. Anyone remember 87-88? /2001?/ 1974? 84?

I just want to own my own house, I wouldn't be bothered about whether it has a high value on the markets... :)

The house I'm in now is very nice, not too keen on the locals, but if I could buy that then I'd be one happy bunny... :D

You'd want stabilty at least...... wish I had a crystal ball for you-maybe it'll all blow over -- you know, like Iraq did (eeerr...another US mess we all ended up paying for).
