Old-Dutch Blackstone Inc was who I read about, Dutchy. They’re some kind of private equity fund who are hoovering up real estate all over the world. Blackrock are another crowd who are at it. It seems to be a fail safe way to invest your billions.

    Ah apologies - hadn’t heard of Blackstone.

    Probably the same outfit.

    Yep

    BlackRock and The Blackstone Group are often confused as they share similar names and origins. Founded in 1985, both companies fell under an umbrella company called Blackstone Financial Management, a mergers and acquisitions company. In 1988, BlackRock separated from the parent company and focused on risk management.

      Maybe we were very lucky. We had an apple orchard behind our house and we had a huge tree house in which all parts of the estate help build. Probably the best part was the football matches we used to play against other parts of the estate. But now all the big trees have gone lots of the front garden are all fenced off.

          Dubman did you go scrumping for apples? Lashings and lashings of ambrosia for pudding? I must say this council estate sounds very Enid Blyton.

              They were sour crab apples. Did have good apple fights though.

                I heard he refuses to vote for any party who doesn’t have it in their manifesto that they’ll significantly lower the age of consent.

                Probably just a rumour. Probably….

                Along_the_Wire that market has been sown up by some scrote who worked at a library. He made bank then bought a villa down in Kuşadasi like all the other pound shop scrotes. Rumours he can be seen at the beach wearing a brown beanie and U-Boat commander trench coat.
