I'm expecting it to snow tonight. I'd come there... but it sounds like I need a body guard {or 4}. Drive 5 minutes south of my home, and it's a strange world {USA}. Gold at a bottom. Or no PS: You know I'm long, and you wanted to cheer with me? Gold is so easy to figure out. [8?) Take care.

I have new neighbours from SA. Couple in their thirties, brought their two dogs and cat , must be nice people, well they are as of course I've met them, but a big bill on transporting the animals. Actually I went over to warn them of a skunk in the neighbourhood on their second day here and 4 days later their German Shepherd got skunked.

<<Thanks Hutch. I would if the weather was a bit warmer. If I've got to die I'd rather not freeze to death! BTW I think POG is near the bottom.>> I agree, POG is past bottom, while offers are going out, if you want some time as a get away fly fishing here in Co. ain't bad. Cost of living sucks big time.

Late rush to stop gold sales BY PAUL ARMSTRONG Links THE World Gold Council has launched an eleventh-hour attempt to overturn the Government's plans to sell the bulk of its gold inventory, taking out advertisements in national newspapers. The campaign is designed to rustle up public opposition to the Treasury's initial gold auction, planned for next Tuesday. The Treasury declined to comment on the council's action. Gary Mead, head of research at the council, said the advertisements resulted in the lobby group's phone lines being jammed with "thousands" of callers opposed to the sale. The council is the trade body of, and funded by, gold mining companies around the world. The advertisements' readers are invited to put their names on an attached form, headed "I think we should hold on to our gold", and post it to Gordon Brown, the Chancellor. Mr Mead said the value of the Government's gold reserves had fallen by about £400 million since it announced on May 7 that it would sell 715 tonnes through a series of auctions.
