I'm generally a happy person.
Regular access to chicken katsu curry would make me happier though.

Could do with a Nandos....
Are they still planning on having one in Swindon?
Aren't they sticking one of these in the shed currently being thrown up at Regent's Circus?

Oh are they? No doubt all of the players will reside there...

Hope you dont mind me having a say Its a good point made,fact is that it seems that most people see jobs and the economy as the most important thing in the ordinary persons life. WELL IT FUCKING ISN'T. Putting a great supermarket on every corner,putting a takeaway and bookies in every spare space isn't the answer. Come to that nor is putting a great train track across the country just to boost the economy....jobs and the economy isn't the answer to everything....how about enjoying life and what it has to offer,life dosn't have to revolve around work and jobs all the time So no we dont need another Mcnasty,5 is enough....a few more chemists may help,or maybe a decent library in the places that need one,in my opinion two Mcdonalds was more than enough.

I imagine the millions/billions without a job and living in abject poverty in countries with failed economies are loving life.
Ignorance must truly be a blissful thing.

My grandad is extremely poor but the happiest person I know, his and my nan's pension combined is about £150 a month, a month... Yet he loves life and every day is a blessing for him.

Is that to say that he wouldn't be more happy with more money though?
I'm not picking a fight, just wondering..

He's lived through 2 wars (wounded in one), 7 of his siblings have died, had a near death experience and yet he's immensely happy. Money genuinely isn't important to some people.

Food places will thrive, well, because we need to eat. With life (apparently) being more hectic, people will have a takeaway to save time etc. That said, I enjoy cooking, I like to be creative (yes, really ) but lately I just chuck something in the oven, or do a quick stir fry because I have so many other things to be getting on with. If people choose to eat burgers/curry/kebabs etc most nights, then let them do it. Is another McD's needed in Swindon, probably not, but I reckon they'll still turn a profit. I live in Calne, there are a few chippies, kebab and pizza places as well as a good Indian Restaurant and Chinese takeaways. They have all been here for some time so must be doing ok. If I want to have a different culinary experience then I have to head out of town; we could really do with a nice restaurant specialising in English and Med food, personally my favourites.

Saying that, he is a freak of nature. He works 6 days a week, aged 84.

Haha, the I think when you get to a certain age, money isn't an issue...
Then again, unemployment isn't 100% down to there being 'no jobs'...
SOME people don't want to work....
(I'm not saying ALL unemployed people DON'T want to work...by the way)

Good on him. He has a pension, yet he's extremely poor?

I agree with this....does anywhere NEED 'another' McDonalds? Again, probably not...but, like you say, it'll ALWAYS make a profit and be packed at key times throughout the day. If it goes 24 hours (like most), people will go to there as it'll be their 'local'..
