I can now reveal the real reason for my trip to Bali. I am attending the annual meeting of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) – in other words a date with Christine Lagarde! It has been very difficult to keep this secret so far but I can finally spill the beans. Christine and I are going to be comparing our hair colouring regime over an intimate lunch in Denpasar. I am sooo looking forward to this. For those of you who know how committed I am to Economics and the forecasting of the state of health of the worlds major players this is a real treat. Meltdown – what meltdown? Never mind the increased level of my personal mountain of debt – I am too big to fail!
