Ok, thanks, my apologies for the misunderstanding. -

Has it ever occurred to you that perhaps they have a better and more balanced view of the world than the young? People buy papers for all sorts of reasons. I get them for the puzzles. -

Geriatrics have a vote too. -

The view depends on where you stand. Personally I take the whole lot with a big pinch of salt. -

That goes for all parties. -
I'm in a similar situation. We have two tickets at full price despite both being over 65 but if I buy tickets for the cup games then the pricing is based on the age of the people who are registered against the tickets.

Far too soon for legendary comparisons, in my opinion.

It can get very crowded in the high season but you should be ok. I have always thought that if they filled in all the canals it would make life a lot easier for everybody You'll need this site: http://www.actv.it/en/movinginvenice/movinginvenice

This one is also revealing:

I'm afraid not. here is an extreme example: https://www.whitefieldtax.co.uk/web/fines-ever-tax-deductible/ 'It is generally accepted by advisers that if the purpose of a penalty or fine is to punish, then no tax relief is available.' However in José's case he could argue that it is a legitimate part of his business

Fines are not an allowable tax expense.

Ireland have been doing it since 2002 and the charge was increased in 2007.We were over there a couple of weeks ago and the larger purchases were packed into paper/cardboard bags. Much better.

I'll buy ten. That's a start.

I second that. From a management view I personally would be excited and impressed by someone who came to me with well-thought out proposals for improving and restructuring the organisation. It's your life and career and its up to you to steer it in the direction you wish to go. Good luck.

Post-Match Reaction: Chelsea 1-3 SAINTS
Whitey Grandad replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Saints
Very interesting, thanks for that. I wonder how difficult it is to motivate players who have just won the title the previous season. Do they still have the same hunger? -

You'd hope so but these players are very skilled at hiding what they do from the officials. -
By 'consistently wrong' what exactly are you referred by to?

The FA would get a lump of money. Other than that, pointless.

He was looking towards the corner at the time. I suspect that defenders watch the ref whilst they engage in shirt pulling. One assistant was miles away down the far touchline and the other is looking through a crowd of players. It takes a lot of balls for an assistant to give a penalty in this situation and in fact I can't remember it happening. These situations are covered in the officials' pre-match briefing with the instructions to the assistant being that he'd better be absolutely certain before flagging. The assistant can't be certain that it isn't a two-way thing. The fourth official only gets involved with disciplinary matters such as player identification. This shirt pulling goes on in every game and is often highlighted by the TV. Something should be done. -

I tend to agree with you on this, austerity comes from the word 'austere' and doesn't mean tightening your belt a little, it means going without. I asociate austerity programmes with the post-war years and if you think that what we are doing now is austerity then it just doesn't compare. I suppose that words change their meanings over time but for me this one won't.
