Could be a good time to buy the following:

Good value shares to buy and hold right now IMHO are M & S £3.42 today British Land £7.43 and HSBC £8.04. I actually sold my HSBC holding about 5 or 6 weeks ago at £8.92 this has seemed like a pretty smart move as I took a neat 12% profit and had I held on this would have been not only completely wiped out, but I would be sitting on a paper loss of a few %.

I think that if you are prepared to buy and hold for up to three years, you should be OK at today's prices.

My own policy is a vey flexible one. I buy to hold medium to long term, but should I see an instant profit (as I made on HSBC in about 3 months) I will take it, 'get out' and continue to follow prices.

I will ask for up to date advice when I've got cash to invest lol. the only shares that I have, were given to me as an incentive from an employer 15years ago! but I've made a bob or two by holding on to them :)
