The fallout from the US is certainly having an impact. Although were still somewhat insulated some companies are starting to go bad *feces*, so nobody is gonna be able to afford the GI with the Kung Foo grip for Christmas.

But right now I have some bigger issues to contemplate with a new housing estate built over a landfill that's pumping out tonnes of methane. Some homes are recording up to 60% methane levels. [sm_shock]

Pfftthhh...  My guess is you can measure many houses in the US that emit a great deal of methane.  Especially on NFL Sundays.

LOL...

Although most of the people who live in this estate are being evacuate and aren't likely to be able to return for at least 12 months, with the possibility that the methane will continue to spew out for another 10-20 years...

Interestingly everyone who lives there is over the "pull my finger" jokes
