How I Wrote Elastic Man 1,187 Posted August 2, 2020 I´m betting the loser of this bet won´t accept defeat..... A brave call from Swindon Canary to suggest the UK will have better figures than Lithuania Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A brave call from Swindon Canary to suggest the UK will have better figures than Lithuania I have given him ample opportunity to back out, or even check what he is betting on, as with Aprils fall being -20.3 and Mays growth being -1.8 that would require a staggering one months growth in June to get anywhere near Lithuania The current forecast is around -14 for the 2nd quarter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is a blatant lie, nothing has been changed the bet relates to the GDP figures ob the 2nd quarter 2020 and even your tiny mind should be able to grasp that the 2nd quarter is in the past not future, and that anyone else reading this can see it being that as well now, no more lies - lets just see if, in your words "That our rate will be lower than ALL the EU countries that I listed " Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SwindonCanary 455 Posted August 3, 2020 Oh, stop it with this lie sh1t, you know as well as me at this present time our GDP figures are better than all the EU Countries listed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1,788 Posted August 3, 2020 (edited) the ones named in the bet.... the second quarter; won't be known until they are released on 12th Aug the 'current figures' will be included as part of the third quarter(July-Sept) and won't be released until early November, as it takes quite a while to collate them - hence the delay in release so it would seem your above post is yet another lie, as neither of us knows the figures you talk about ps feel free to ask me next time, or any time - it might save you from making an **** of yourself, and you might just learn something Edited August 3, 2020 by Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That has been my thought right from the beginning he’s been dishonest all the time I have known him on this forum so it is hardly likely he will change now ...... and he sounds the kind of bloke who has his 'pocket money; handed to him by his wife but he needed his bluff called at some point, as it was getting rather boring him trying to hide behind yet another lie by demanding it be resolved by a bet time will tell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
