My thoughts: if you hit it, you're responsible.

Yup, it's a scam, you don't need to pay anything

It should be free and you can apply at a Post Office. Are you applying for a replacement for one that you lost?

I think that last season's experience will be the key to promotion.

Thanks, but we only drop in there when we're on a cruise, doncha know! It looks like a good read, something for me to do this evening.

Is the loan window still open or is it only emergency loans at the moment?

Wonderful! We like Gibraltar.

Nice try! Not Friday 13th nor Monday 9th?

Too many variables in all that for me. I think it's going to take another 5 or 6 games before things get a bit clearer, so I'm happy to take it one cliche at a time. When's the earliest we could be promoted?

Morgan, this thread or both?

If I'm around to see it I shall be doing well. There's a transit of Venus to look forward too: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transit_of_Venus,_2012 Not that there'll be much to see.

You're lucky. All that's left of mine is the seat number.

That statement will be applied to any argument for the next 10 to 15 years.

Supposed to be even closer together this evening.

First class is where the arllines make a lot of their profits. Reduce that and the economy cattle have to pay more.

My thoughts too. Bit previous aren't we?

To be fair, most of the world is expensive these days, mainly because the £ is worth bugger all.

Why is it unsustainable? I see no problems with air travel.

So when they said it was lost...

The difference here is that international transport involves different tax regimes and if we're not careful the rest of the world will pass us by, if it hasn't already.
