Art ideas for Kids Room, by Schrödinger's Chat on Dec 19, 2018 20:31:01 GMT 1, Haha diveJedi i see that you sought out the least colourful offering.
There are some nice reasonably priced original canvases etc. Maybe not ideal for the kids room I'll grant you.

Brexit, by Schrödinger's Chat on Dec 19, 2018 13:32:09 GMT 1, Just when we thought there was no magic money tree Mrs May produces another 2 billion to look at no deal brexit. Imagine what life would be like if there was a magic money tree! Would you prefer that she does not look at preparations for a no deal scenario? Would you prefer us to crash out at the end of March next year and then decide what to do after that?
I agree with daylightrobbery but for a fuller response. My preference would be no brexit, but I could have stomached a properly conceived and measured approach to brexit by the Government built up over the last 2 years +. To be running around like headless chickens now throwing cash around and basically panic planning to desperately preserve a position likely to be worse than our current position is all pretty irresponsible in my view. Giving businesses 100 day warning to prepare for a potential no deal is in some cases about as useful as handing them a chocolate teapot.
The Tories have made a complete horlicks of Brexit from conception to now. The claims that we can have a brexit wherein we have our cake and eat it (and potentially eat other people's cake along the way),quickly crumbled. Trusting asshats like TweedleDom and TweedleDavis to negotiate a decent deal has resulted in abject failure. They couldn't collectively negotiate their way out of a paper bag, but nevertheless found it hilarious to celebrate their ineptitude by collecting their joint award for Cabinet Resignation of the Year.
All the collective egos in suits that make up the party should be totally ashamed of their behaviour, their lack of morality and their self interest throughout Brexit, taking the focus off doing a decent job of it (but since they don't possess any powers of introspection they won't).
They should have expended more energy looking after the interests of the Country then making hollow claims of putting the people first and generating pathetic meaningless pithy soundbites; red, white & blue brexit, brexit means brexit, no deal is better than a bad deal (I bet Theresa May didn't imagine she would be stress testing this statement).
If the opposition wasn't so terrible and totally devoid of an alternative plan the Tories would be out by now. How can an opposition party slide in popularity against this shower?
It's a sad sad day when I'm left dewy eyed reminiscing about Cameron, Osborne, Milliband, Clegg etc as some sort of glorious bygone period for politics.
Sick of the lot of them and can't wait for this sorry chapter of our history to be closed.
Glad to get that off my chest 🤣 - Merry Christmas all!

Bitcoin, by Schrödinger's Chat on Dec 17, 2018 11:49:32 GMT 1, Wasn't there someone who sold a Banksy on here last year for a fraction of a bitcoin. Ouch. Only 'ouch' if they didn't sell out of the Bitcoin
I did think that after my post. I'm pretty sure it was near the bitcoin peak that the sale was made, and the seller seemed to be going all in in crypto.
I may have it wrong it was a year ago and I've been to sleep since then.

Pejac - Love Letter, by Schrödinger's Chat on Dec 14, 2018 17:15:58 GMT 1, I think you miss the point of my question. I just thought it was an odd statement, 'great price for an edition this size.' I was suggesting that if people thought £700 was a good price for an edition of 500 extending that view an edition of 80 for £1300 was a veritable bargain. I personally think £700 is a lot for an edition of 500. Yes, of course it was a bargain at £1,300. A veritable bargain. That's why so many people wanted it, sadly. Pejac should charge £3,500 for his prints.
Alright last question, do you really think Pejac would sell out an edition of 80/100/125 at £3500? 🤔 I'm not so sure.

Brexit, by Schrödinger's Chat on Dec 14, 2018 15:05:43 GMT 1, A good quote on James o'brien this morning, which speaks to the flag waving, Britania rules the waves, they need us more than we need them committee. A useful reality check if you just swap America for UK.
"Every day we're told that we live in the greatest country on earth. And it's always stated as an undeniable fact: Leos are born between July 23 and August 22, fitted queen-size sheets measure sixty by eighty inches, and America is the greatest country on earth. Having grown up with this in our ears, it's startling to realize that other countries have nationalistic slogans of their own, none of which are 'We're number two!"

Pejac - Love Letter, by Schrödinger's Chat on Dec 14, 2018 12:29:56 GMT 1, When people say good price for the edition size, I'm interested what that is based on.
If Pejac had released an edition of 500 for £700 each would people have jumped at it?
I don't think I would and I'm a fan. I didn't buy this as it was not the right time for me and I already have one of his prints.
Forest was an edition of 80 and cost around £1300, so was that cheap for the edition size?
I'm not being facetious and I'm a big fan of Pejac, pleased to see he has a following and I hope the charity auction goes to the moon.

Still Rees Smug or Davis or someone will be telling us that Japan are knocking on the UKs door begging us to strike a trade deal with them,it will be 10 times bigger, 10 times better and will come riding into town on a rainbow coloured unicorn wearing a glittery bow tie.
Easiest deal in human history!

Brexit, by Schrödinger's Chat on Dec 13, 2018 12:36:30 GMT 1, I think it's more or less impossible to explain anything brexit related now. It's difficult to see how the Tories could make any more of a mess of it, on the flip side labour and the ERG etc have offered precisely no alternative solution either.
May keeps her job only by promising that she won't stick around much longer, not a great footing to be on.
A complete omnishambles.

You obviously never watch "This Week" on BBC1 then. Andrew Neil is scathing in his attacks on the Tories. P.S. The editor of The Spectator is Fraser Nelson, not Andrew Neil. Apologies, wrong about him being editor. He is the Chairman of Press Holdings Media Group of which the spectator is one of their publications. It all seems to get more complicated the more you look into this company and its relationships with other Tory publications and its finances i.e. Offshore investment.
Nevertheless he has been accused of not being impartial.

Pejac - Love Letter, by Schrödinger's Chat on Dec 5, 2018 19:05:37 GMT 1, Oh how I miss the times people bought art because they like the art itself. In this day and age, where people insert themselves as an unneeded middle-man in releases just to profit from something they have no interest in helps drive the worst elements of this forum. The discussion about works typically devolve into some "predetermined" worth and the potential to increase in value. Some of us here buy art to look at and enjoy. For those of us, it comes down to do I like the art for the price offered. Perhaps some of you may have missed the point that by doing a timed edition, everyone who wants one at that price can get one. For those who are not interested in the work because of the work itself or the price or edition size, why do you think any of us care about your opinion?
Reads like a love letter to the good ol days.
