Optimism is the cure for the downturn
Viewpoint
By Sir David Tang
Entrepreneur

Pessimism is the most serious cause for the global economic tsunami.
It is only with a sense of optimism, preferably accompanied by a sense of energy and laughter, that we will be able to pick ourselves up from a broken Humpty Dumpty.

2008 has been an eventful year to say the least – it is difficult to sum up the thousands of stories in just a handful of photographs. That said, I will try to do what I’ve done with other photo narratives here, and tell a story of 2008 in photographs. It’s not the story of 2008, it’s certainly not all stories, but as a collection it does show a good portion of what life has been like over the past 12 months. This is a multi-entry story, 120 photographs over three days. Watch for part 2 and part 3 tomorrow and the next day. (40 photos total)…

Some poor sod had his bum glued to a metal toilet seat. And he had to be saved by blue-lights and all. I am sure that some new CCTV cams will be placed as a result of this story…it goes to confirm that public toilets are not to be trusted.There is stories of war, of hunger, global economic roller-coaster rides…and there’s this. thank you BBC.
