Here's some good news, according to an international survey us British are a happy nation but sadly we're also a bit bored ...

Maybe we need a "Keep Britain Interested" campaign to encourage impromptu games of hopscotch, between people of all ages, in the street ... Very Happy

I seem to remember you reporting that britons are turning more to sex as a cheap hobby. Maybe our boredom rating will decrease during the recession, or maybe we just aren't any good at it anyway!

I'm sure we just need more practice.

Surprised I'd almost forgotten about that other post!

Maybe a "Bonk for Britain" campaign might be more appropriate with ways to combine sex with such traditional UK pastimes such a campanology, morris dancing and curry eating.

Bring back Benny Hill, I say! Now, he made things a little more fun..... and Carry On Britons!!!

If you put the two 'surveys' together, it reads that Brits are too skint to do anything other than bonk as long as they arent paying for it - poor prosititutes, this credit crunch is obviously affecting their trade - and to rub salt in the wounds, Choochi0 it's not that we need more practice, its apparently that the only free 'fun' is *boring*!!!

Hmm, maybe we need to encourage people to donate to charity every time they do that alleged recreational thing, therefore raising their interest? Very Happy

It could go the other way with Darling issuing a stimulus package that could work like this ...

Waiter: Are you planning to fornicate after this meal?
Diners: Yes, it will a beautiful expression of our mutual respect and attraction, carried out under the Byronic principles of free love.
Waiter: In that case you both qualify for the "Bonking for Business" discount, in order to rejoice in the economic activity your love has inspired.

There obviously would be claims that a "Bonking for Business" stimulus packages was based on a misspelling ...

Window cleaners could get a bonus everytime they react in an appropriate "Carry On" manner when they accidently disturb a couple having sex and/or getting naked ...
