    Go home

    Expenses are important, you shouldn't ignore them. Claiming part of your home for your business gives rise to all sorts of problems over Capital Gains and other things.
  2. That's no good, we hardly ever try a shot on goal. Is this Leandro fellow any good and should I get excited?
  3. As always, thanks for the info. I wish I could be there.
  4. Oh well, Coventry's loss is Northampton's gain. How much do we bring to town, out of interest? I know I spend the lesser part of bugger-all
  5. Not every matchday, surely?
  6. Are we buying BOGOF too? Who does he play for? :confused:
  7. I lost this thread some time ago. Are we buying Leandro or Damiao?
  8. And there's no disgrace in that, just as most opera singers don't get to sing at Coventry Garden. There are a limited number of Premiership places and the Life of a professional footballer in the lower leagues can still be a nice little earner.
  9. There's no need to get shirty just because others see things differently.
  10. At least he tried hard, he was very trying.
  11. Is that you Jason?
  12. But that would give them extra revenue
  13. To be fair, I think that's what Tokyo-Saint is saying.
  14. Why not have a different version for them? They rarely go to matches anyway.
  15. Indeed, if these contracts are the norm for a company then I would agree. I mention the Fire Service as an organisation that has very occasional demands for a large number of people but these demands are unpredictable. There are plenty of businesses that cannot afford to have sufficient personnel on fully-paid standby just to meet intermittent peak demands.
  16. Technology is no better and can be very misleading.
  17. Not at all. It all depends on demand. There are plenty of businesses in this situation. How about the Fire Service?

    But that just creates another giant pyramid/Ponzi scheme
  19. Ah, difficult choice. It's a bit like when you're eating your favourite meal, do you leave the best bit first or save it for last? And there again, sometimes the anticipation is better than the experience itself.
  20. Ooh, you're fussy.
  21. I remember reading somewhere about a study the RAF did when they thought they might have to fight Spitfires in the Israeli Air Force with Lightnings. It was found to be difficult to shoot them down with heat-seeking missiles because of the small heat signature.
  22. There's far more to it than just land availability. Even back when I was talking to GOSE and other planners the figure of over 2.5 million homes in 10 years was mentioned but when I asked where the money was going to come from all I got was blank looks. Multiply 2.5m by £150k average price and see what you get.
  23. Too many people in the country. If we hasn't had an increase of 10 million extra over the las decade or so then there would be plenty of housing.
  24. Yes Verbal, I'm with you.
  25. Seems a bit steep to me.
