  1. Same people, I believe.
  2. M J Adams, in the FMB, & is local (Bassett). Did some work for me a few years ago, was quick, efficient & a good price. Btw, have you sought Building Regs approval, or are you wanting the builder to use a Bulding Notice, either way, it would be wise to get a Structural Engineer to take a look before letting a builder loose with a sledge hammer, I believe to have Tim's details.
  3. Rip and ......ahem.....thanks.
  4. To add insult to injury, a Southampton based firm of Structural Engineers are designing either this place or the Passenger Terminal.
  5. No I've definitely never had issue eating breakfast but I've had issues running a couple of hours after a meal, so I now run before I eat. but a banana etc would probably be ok. Cheers.
  6. Ok chaps, I need a bit of advice, as I mentioned I've ducked out of the 10 mile & I'm doing the 5k, which, Spurs match aside, that was the right decision, as when I get to about 2.5-3 miles my knee is shot & stays shot for about 5 days, 10 miles would have been near on impossible, I digress though. The advice I need is when to eat breakfast. I usually train at about 6-7 pm & haven't eaten since about 1.30 pm. The run is about 10 ish. Will I have problems eating a light brekky, say a couple of bits of toast, a couple of hours before race time?
  7. That was probably the most incredible thing I've seen, for me, it was similar to watching the first ever Space Shuttle landing, and to land on his feet was awesome, I fully expected him to land in a crumpled heap. I nearly didn't get to see it as my wife dished up tea as he was running through his checks. Myself & no.2 son wanted to watch it live, the others capitulated, so there were four of us huddled in our tiny computer room with roast dinner on our laps (almost literally in the case of my youngest). It's what I imagine it was like for the moon landing, all huddled around a small screen. With regards to the chute opening, it said on the Red Bull streaming that his visor had misted, and he was unsure of his exact altitude, so he deployed his chute early. I hadn't realised until this morning that the Comms man at mission control was none other than Joe Kittenger the last crazy guy to jump from space, and also yesterday was the 65th anniversary of the first manned supersonic flight, nice synergy I think.
  8. Sorry mate 'twas too subtle for me.
  9. Personally I'd have given it to Hart whilst he still has an umblemished reputation.
  10. Never been to a match then! As Lighthouse, I went to the local comp & played rugby, my sons also go to the local comp & play, both at school & for a club, they are coached (amongst others) by a kitchen fitter, a groundworker, an ex-squaddie and bloke that installs hoists for the disabled, none of which went to Eton .
  11. I'm wonder if his drug taking caused his cancer?
  12. He must have enjoyed it, he finished it. Did no one really notice? I reckon they (the parents) thought it would be amusing to give the kid some booze & when he became ill got all panicky and blamed the restaurant.
  13. It should be remembered that Saviles family are also victims of this, in a different way of course. I can only applaud their actions and the dignified comments they've made. "(We) are deeply aware of the impact that the stone remaining there could have on the dignity and sanctity of the cemetery," a statement released on behalf of the family said. Out of respect to public opinion, to those who are buried there, and to those who tend their graves and visit there, we have decided to remove it."
  14. :lol:
  15. Maybe the OP is dyslexic. Pretty sure this is an open forum where we can debate all this good & bad about Saints, but be careful about taking the p!ss out of bad spelling & grammar. I did this on another forum, only to be pm'd by another poster telling me that the guy I was ridiculing was dyslexic & it took a lot of balls for him to post. I felt a bit of a *u**.
  16. Christ! not sure of the correct response or . Either way I'm sticking to HSB.
  17. I hope they can add a water taxi terminal, preferaby starting at Woodmill.
  18. Not quite done & dusted yet, final list to be confirmed next year, hopefully we'll be on it.
  19. I think he suffered a dead leg that wouldn't come round, IIRC the gash was a result of surgery, I think it went the entire length of his thigh.
  20. The best left back never to be capped for England, an absolute legend of a player IMHO. Wasn't he supposed to post on here, cunningly calling himself "Leftback"?
  21. I've heard this too, sometime ago. I haven't posted this before because I thought the source was a bit dodgy ie a ground worker & in my 27 years in the construction industry, I've yet to find a groundworker who's an expert in structures, however, he may have been right. It's not at all unusual for the Architect, Engineer or any other consultant used in the pre-contract stage to be novated across to the contractor.

  23. Ah.. ok. I read the white crosses as being the catering outlet locations, rather than sellers additional to them.
  24. According to the map, the outlet in the Family Section, isn't selling them.
