  1. There's a company in Park gate in the industrial units near the station. They do bespoke woodwork for windows, doors etc. Beacon Joinery Unit 7 Park Gate Business Centre Chandlers Way Unit 7 Park Gate Southampton, SO31 1FQ 01489 579 248
  2. Wash your mind out with soap and water! [-X
  3. I think it's more a case of 'we won't let you play in our League until somebody has paid all the football-related debts. Imagine if one of your customers had defaulted on you owing you millions and then came back as a different company under a slightly different name. Would you still give them the same trading terms and prices?
  4. How does this relate to the 'Statement of Affairs' which in itself must be a legally accepted document?
  5. Indded. They have probably 'claimed back VAT' that they haven't actually paid, and probably never will!
  6. If the money is already due to the agents and they have submitted invoices then the VAT element would already have been included in the net amount owing to HMRC, that is they would already have 'claimed it back'. It depends on the tax point which must be very close to the date of supply of the service.
  7. You're not wrong. Didn't Birmingam go straight back up?
  8. Subject to ratification at a meeting in June, I believe. Almost all the Fotball League would be against it, surely?
  9. So why didn't the BA staff bring forward their strike to today?
  10. You'll get less wet if you take the ferry across instead of the train ;-)
  11. I have a holiday on that weekend that we booked last year, so I can categorically state that we shall reach the final.
  12. Please don't think that it's a question of whether or not you'll get a disease of some sort. The damage is cumulative in all sorts of ways, arterial damage, skin damage, lungs to name but a few. I debated this years ago with my business partner and he said: 'but nobody can point a finger at you and say that you will get lung cancer'. He died 7 years ago next August at the age of 64. From lung cancer. On the general point of universal health treatment, this is a fundamental problem throughout the NHS, deciding who, out of the many deserving causes, should get treated from what will always be limited resources.
  13. Just heard on the radio: Dear Iceland, we said 'please send more cash'.
  14. Apparently it's too high to see but we could have some red sunsets over the next couple of days.
  15. We once supplied a training simulator to the Danish Army. On their firing ranges they are not allowed to shoot at anything which is shaped like a human being so they shoot at red triangles. The officer involved said that so long as the Russians invaded wearing red triangles all would be ok.
  16. Perhaps they all smell? Just a thought...
  17. 'It's not enough to succeed. Others have to fail'. Gore Vidal
  18. Watch out for the volcanic ash.
  19. Does anybody know how long this will last? I have regular air shipments from the Far East and it all my suppliers are a bit surprised when I rais the question of delays.
  20. I always used to get nervous when it got bumpy but now it doesn't seem to bother me. Sit as far forward in the plane as you can and I always used to think of those brave chaps in their Lancasters over Germany. At least you're not being shot at!
  21. You can believe that if you like, but it ain't true. I've seen too may friends and relatives eaten away by the dreaded addiction.
  22. Highlights on BBC for uk viewers: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_div_2/default.stm We are at 06:50. I wish I'd been there.
  23. Smokers should be banned from everything.
  24. I'm told that over the Himalayas it can get bumpy.
