I have taken the following from another freecycle moderator, who got it from a friend....
**************************
If you had purchased £1000 of Northern Rock shares one year
ago it would now be worth £4.95, with HBOS, earlier this week
your £1000 would have been worth £16.50, £1000 invested in XL
Leisure would now be worth less than £5, but if you bought
£1000 worth of lager one year ago, drank it all, then took
the empty cans to an aluminium re-cycling plant, you would get £214.
So based on the above statistics the best current investment
advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

This is a piece of advice I'm quite willing to follow...
Although - maybe not lager.
