  1. My God! To think they've probably bred by now & passed on their genes.
  2. I thought BT was exonerated of all wrong doing, with Dodd being the chief protagonist.
  3. There used to be one (I assume it's still there) in London Rd, there is one in the industrial estate opposite the Luzborough. I think post offices will take franked mail. Alternatively you can print a stamp from the Royal Mail website, which can be posted in ordinary mail boxes.
  4. My 14 year old read through it & asked if he could fill it in. When I said he couldn't he as he was under 18, he pointed out that no where did it give an age limit, the only stipulation was that the householder had to ensure it was done. The smart-arse was correct so I let him fill in his bit.
  5. I believe they were delivered my Royal Mail, so 'postman' I would suspect.
  6. My thoughts, unfunny, patronising, needlessly sarcastic, spiteful. I pity you. Maybe Dannysfc is dyslexic.
  7. I find that surprising as I didn't think our shooting was as good as last season. We've scored 1.84 goals per match, which means we've scored from 24.8% of our shots, whether thats a good ratio I've no idea. Dunno where I'm going with this so I'm giving up - I've not had a coffee yet.
  8. No contest gotta be Ted mk1 on 3 counts: 1. He was our own 2. He wasn't a kiddie fiddler 3. He wasn't made of plastic
  9. lol at the skate flicking V's over his right shoulder
  10. Not a summer job, but between August & October the electoral roll is updated, this involves delivering leaflets, then reminders & finally going around & chasing up those that fail to respond. My Mum does this and makes around £450 for what ammounts to about a weeks work spread out over about 8 weeks. If your interested you will need to contact the Electoral Registration Dept at Soton CC, probably worth doing it soon-ish to get on this years list.
  11. Simon Stainrod alway got Sh!t loads of abuse. I remember when we played QPR in a Milk Cup match at Loftus Rd, probably around '85, the whole Saints contingent were singing "Simon Stainrod, what a w@nker, what a w@nker" for much of the match. QPR had a corner at our end & someone threw an orange at him , which he took clean on the volley launching it back at us.
  12. I think I enjoyed that Well done Forte, right place at the right time, but made 'em count. Well done Adam Lalanna, was particularly impressed with his chasing back & hasselling the MKD guy in front of the Kingsland late in the second half.
  13. Newcastle 1-0 when Ruddock scored the penalty at the end. Dire match ending a run of god knows how many defeats. Ruddock nearly broke the net with the pen. Turned the season around and we managed to stay up.
  14. There's no reason why your boss should find out, as you can opt to pay either through your tax coding (in which case your employer may ask a question or 2), or you can pay a lump sum (possibly in installments, I don'nt know) direct to HMRC. This option is given on your tax form. This is how I do mine, the guv'nor is completely unaware.
  15. Saints 8 Coventry 2, 1980 something. Moran & Wallace hattricks, ohhhhh Frankie Frankie, Frankie Frankie Frankie Frankie Worthington got one, & someone else got the other.
  16. I enjoyed reading that. It's nice to find out what goes on behind the scenes. Good luck Carlisle.
  17. You will need to pay Class 2 NI, but if your profits are less than £5075 you can apply for excemption. Yes definetely, you should pay tax on all your earnings (over your threshold). I hope you haven't been defrauding charities as well.
  18. Yes that's basically what I do, I just choose to leave all the cash in the BS. You will need to contact HMRC & let them know your situation, they will send out a SA form & collect the tax the following January, you can also ask for exemption from National Insurance (assuming you don't go above a threshold, that I can't remember atm). This is my situation anyway, not sure if it the same for a registered company.
  19. According to my colleague, who is a bit of a conniseur "the key is freshness", were his wise words, & recomended fishsociety.co.uk, or Waitrose. Have you noticed how much Japanese the fish are eating nowdays.
  20. I occasionally do work for a mate (who runs a legitimate company). I invoice him on an invoice template I concocted in Word, like you, when I started out I didn’t want a project number ‘001’, so used the year of my birth, an ran consecutive numbers from there. I put the money in an entirely separate building society account. I’m up front with HMRC (unlike our fishy friends), and every April I complete a self assessment form, once HMRC have had their pound of flesh, I take the rest from the account and usually fritter it away on whatever the Mrs decides (and my season ticket). Obviously I pay tax at the usual PAYE rate, as I’m a sole trader & have never bothered setting up a company.
  21. We weren't allowed DM boots in school, so I bought a pair of DM shoes. Still have them today & wear them when gardening 29 years later. (When I was a 14 year-old rudie, I never thought I'd be gardening ).
  22. When I was a kid, in Bitterne Park there used to be a Plumber in Oaktree Rd called Mr Buckett, complimented by a plumber in Sandringham Rd called Mr Flood.
