UK not to blame!
Europe stands petrified as the euro meltdown fear creeps
across it like volcanic lava and UK financial gurus can sigh with relief.
Whatever happens about Greece, or indeed Ireland, the fact that the UK did not
join the Euro is to be applauded. Undoubtedly as billions of euros are poured
onto the terminal embers of the Greek economy, the rest of Europe wonders how
it will end. The money has to come from
somewhere, but does the reservoir of the European Central Bank contain
sufficient to prevent the fires of insolvency from spreading further and
further? Only time will tell.
I knew you'd come up trumps :-) great post, fits genre perfectly.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you got brave. It was a really tricky prompt again this week, and you've done a great job with it. I like the way you've included the imagery of "meltdown" from the headline throughout the piece, with embers, fires etc. Sally-Jayne
ReplyDeleteYou could be on a journalistic path now Ali ! Well done
ReplyDeleteI agree with the previous commenters. I like what you did with this difficult prompt.
ReplyDeleteAn excellent take on the prompt and very well written
ReplyDeleteThis is a serious piece of writing that is fabulous. I didn't realise when I set the prompt that such writing would be produced. Thank you so much for taking up this challenge. I'm going to have toput my thinking cap on!!
ReplyDeleteThank you all very much. I am really enjoying these challenges, and I can see how my writing is developing. I shall continue now - I have caught the writing bug.
