    The valuer's 2006 UCD quote from Shane Ross is on the ball.

    'We are running out of time' says the Chair.

    No truer word.

    "What's an independent valuer?"

    wait a minute - we issue namabonds.

    we pay the coupon to the banks. fair enough.


    ECB steps in and says "we'll BUY the namabonds off you for cash"... so therefore we end up paying the coupon to the ECB?

    have i got that right?
