I'm sure there's a pay structure and I don't think that would fit in it.

What sort of pussy was it?

Sadly I have to agree. But always remember that the journey is more important than the destination.

Too risky in every respect. One broken leg, twisted knee, training pitch punch-up, and suddenly you've no reserves left.

Would it be greedy to ask for both?

And your point is... ?

He was with a women and a young boy. Make of that what you will.

I know a lot of scientists who are swivel-eyed loonies.

I've just had to check the date.

We used to have a brush like that for cleaning flue pipes. Just saying, like...

I have often wondered. She has never told me if she took him up on the offer.

That was a lot of money back then, it would have bought you a car, or something.

Yeah, her too. I'm not fussy. At my age I can't afford to be.

Throw in a Sally Knyvette and I might even pay the asking price.

I thought it blew up?

My wife met him in Antigua at the breakfast buffet in our hotel. His words to her were 'would you like the salad?'

You can have too many plethoras.

Fair enough, the wording for this bit changes more often than I change my underpants but it used to say 'about six seconds' and then it disappeared all together. I have sometimes timed Premier League keepers and found the figure to be around 12 seconds. They tend to stretch it as far as they can. In any case, a referee would normally give a warning before penalising a persistent offender.

All is in the Laws: http://www.fifa.com/mm/Document/FootballDevelopment/Refereeing/02/36/01/11/27_06_2014_new--LawsofthegamewebEN_Neutral.pdf 1. No need for added time if no stoppages. 2. Refs will make allowance for the time taken for substitutions. Some may stop their watches. 3. No, not really. Indirect kicks are no longer given for this which is normally a direct free kick offence. 4. Foul throws are still there. 5. The rule still applies but I don't think the 'about six seconds' is still in the Laws. 6. All that matters is the location of the ball when it leaves the hands.

Yes, must try harder.

I think you've hit on the magic words there.

Electronic goods in particular, which is where I have the most experience. That is separate to all the palaver and paperwork with customs duties and VAT needed for shipments into the EU from outside. What we have now is far more straightforward and less time-consuming than what we had to go through 20 or 30 years ago. Other world markets are much more difficult, North America with its UL certification, for example, I'm sorry if I'm a bit terse and sporadic, we're on a cruise ship with a limited internet connection at the moment.

Anything we make would still have to comply with EU standards but we would have no say in defining these.

I concur.

I have to consider the overall package. We could do without a referendum because of the uncertainty ain't it causes but as for the advantages and disadvantages for me there is only one place and that's inside instead of out.
