Encouraging Signs Re Euro Collapse

2011 has been a pretty bleak year for The Mrs Gruff and I and some good news at its end is most welcome. There may, in the words of the song, be trouble ahead, we may soon be humming a different tune and there may be teardrops to shed but the madness that it is the EU cannot go on and the music will have to be faced sooner or later. The news that ministers may be 'considering draconian plans' to deal with the collapse of the Euro is as welcome as the first sign of spring.
