    bank UBS lived until recently in a 1,000

    pound per week apartment, once a Jewish

    soup kitchen, in London's East End.

    "He lived here for about 2-1/2 years. Hewas a very, very nice guy. I have not got a bad

    word to say about him. He was not the tidiest

    fell behind a couple of times on the rent, said

    his landlord.

    NO DIFFERENCE

    BETWEEN THEFT

    AND TRADING

    ASK OUR NICKNick Leeson: The archetypal rogue trader

    Im upset that Adoboli was so untidy. It

    gives our trade a bad name

    CADS: As a thieving bstard yourself how is it possible to

    sweep a billion or two under the carpet?

    Our Nick: While there has been a regulatory

    clampdown on proprietary trading since the 2008 financial

    crisis its hard to distinguish a traders activity from

    ordinary market making.

    CADS: So there you have it from the rouges mouth.

    The regulators cant tell the difference between

    theft and trading.

    DearNick,

    As a mother of six Ican

    fully empathise with your

    disgust at Adobolismessy

    With his wife away on a research trip

    for the Gates Foundation, Microsoft

    founder Bill Gates spent $56 million on

    Amazon in a single marathon session late

    Wednesday night. "The kids were in bed,

    and I was thinking about how it had been a

    long time since I'd heard any Yes, so I

    bought the MP3 for 'Leave It,'" Gates said

    as he opened one of the 13,846 boxes that

    had arrived at his house. "Then I started

    looking into other songs Trevor Hornproduced and bought all the Frankie Goes

    to Hollywood and Art of Noise CDs they

    had. I guess that sort of inspired me,

    because next I purchased Amazon's entire

    inventory of musical instruments,

    equipment, and software, and before I knew

    it, I somehow ended up with 200 sets of

    luggage, all their TVs, a bunch of kayaks,

    that Krakauer book about the Mormons,

    and I don't even know how many walk-in

    freezers. Oh, and a dozen chandeliers and a

    birdbath and pretty much all their watches,

    too." Gates told reporters he came to his

    senses at about 5 a.m. after realizing he had

    nearly purchased a controlling stake in the

    company.

    The man told police he had been bombarded

    with calls, texts and emails from the woman.

    Lawyers say the 42-year-old woman claimed to

    be in a relationship with the man and denied that her

    actions were excessive.The 62-year-old man deniesthat they were in a relationship.

    The BBC's Anna Holligan in The Hague says a

    judge at a preliminary hearing granted the woman

    bail on the condition that she leave the man alone.

    But just a couple of hours after being released,

    she allegedly called him again. She has been kept in

    custody ever since.

    Two hours before our August lunch at

    the Dutch International Cricket Ground,

    the heavens opened and dumped 15mm of

    water on the Amsterdamsebos in 30

    minutes. Fortunately the superb ground

    irrigation at the club had cleared nearly all

    of the water by the time we arrived, and we

    had a dry afternoon. We enjoyed a little

    cricket practice, and discovered that Alison

    can easily outhit the men, despite not

    playing cricket before. We then had a very

    pleasant lunch in the club library, and a talk

    about the club history from groundsman

    Paul Polak.Economic woes continue to dominate

    the news this month. I dare not look at my

    investments, and it seems that the EU willshortly be bankrupt. Unemployment has

    reached a record high in the UK, and the

    economy has ground to a halt. Can Mr

    Cameron show some mettle and turn the

    situation around, or will we have a winter of

    discontent followed by an English Spring

    of riots and civil disobedience? And will the

    Euro collapse whilst we eat our lunch?

    On the bright side, Rebekah Wade has

    left News International, and several senior

    police officers have resigned. The new Chiefis a no-nonsense Yorkshireman, with a

    reputation for effective, good value policing.

    And perhaps as a result of the poor

    economic performance, England is doing

    well on the sports front, with victories in

    both cricket and rugby although I suspect

    we may not progress much further in the

    rugbyAs for our own sports, the CADS golf

    competition took place last Friday in good

    weather. After a very pleasant and gezellig

    game we presented the trophy to John

    Donnelly, who has now won it twice. I hope

    that Ria will allow it to grace their house for

    many years to come, as Johns golf is

    continuing to improve significantly

    following his recent involuntary wrist

    surgery after the presentation, we had a

    pleasant dinner, and no doubt by the time

    you read this, some of our antics will have

    been posted on the website.

    NextFriday,ourguestspeakerwill

    Computers For Development. They
