LGB insolvency

My father used to be a model railway nut, and it was hard to ignore the attraction of it as a boy. Never one to follow blindly I ended up developing an interest in the larger garden model railway manufactured by LGB. The utility of a model railway capable of making supply runs from the living room to the kitchen was irresistible. Dreaming about large-scale garden terraforming to install the train in its natural habitat outside was a great passion in those years, sadly my parents were as wily as the next local council in denying planning consent ;-)

LGB insolvent reports the Standard. One can only hope that a few locusts might be able to turn it around, it worked for Märklin after all.

Gekko as in Gordon?

Morten Lund's new baby Zecco.com promises to become the myspace of investing, offering zero comission trades, blogs to all comers etc. - but did somebody forget to sort out the Url? Just now only this message is displayed:

Gordon Gekko would be proud ;-)
