Playing the market
I've been avidly watching the commodities market to see who the movers
and shaker are. Anyone who bought gold way back in April 07 will be
delighted to see their silly yellow metal worth half as much again
today. And don't talk to me about those clever little boys and girls who
preferred to fill their swimming pools with Brent oil ; they're looking
at a return of almost of almost 50% in the same time-scales. Crude? It's
positively vulgar.
But should scum like me be excluded from this glee club. Well yes,
especially after I bought a shit load of 2 for a pound, your gas
lighters off some twat on Northumberland Street only to see them
plummet to 5 for a pound, your gas lighters the following year. My
fingers were burnt quite literally with those shoddy little fuckers, but
I've scored big in the pomegranate market. Anyone with the brass neck to
pick these fleshy little fruit things up for 30p a piece in The Green
Market back in April will be delighted to see them now pushing a pound
a piece in Tescos on Special at that !111!!!LOL!!!11!!!
Thank fuck I put all of my money into pomegranates. Actually, they're
smelling bad now, so disregard.
