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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Saints 8 Coventry 2, 1980 something. Moran & Wallace hattricks, ohhhhh Frankie Frankie, Frankie Frankie Frankie Frankie Worthington got one, & someone else got the other.

I enjoyed reading that. It's nice to find out what goes on behind the scenes. Good luck Carlisle.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 ).

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.

Indeed. Thanks for the links, I think I may have spent a little too long lingering over the Photo Gallery pages.

Both of my lads play Rugby, and this is exactly how rugby (certainly in Hampshire) is organised. There is zero tolerance when it comes to abuse & critism, both towards the ref & other kids playing. I remember a few years ago when my nipper was playing Under-12, the ref was having a mare & there were a few mumblings amongst the parents (nothing serious, just comments amonst themselves). After the match, our coach sent the kids on a run around the pitch, called the parents over to him & proceded to lecture us about our behaviour.

That's about how many I would let in in a season (per team )

"I sleep alot, it's a lot of dedication" Great quote.

Was it Budgie who told a young Alan Shearer to go in hard on keepers & make sure he hits them?

As a young goalkeeper myself at the time, I used to spend a lot of time watching Shilts, Flowers & Budgie (christ we were spoilt in those days). Loved his warm ups, he wasn't happy for the strikers to lash shots as hard as thet could at him, but went & did his own thing. It definitely paid dividens, 800 games & 46 years old when he finally retired. I loved the bit about sharpening his studs & spiking Ardiles, wish I'd thought of that. I think I'll be parting with a few pennies for that book.

What a great day. I was so pleased I could take my youngest son to see Saints in a Wembley/cup final. I felt I ‘owed’ him one, as my eldest went to Cardiff in 2003 when he was 6, and after our dramatic fall from grace I was thinking it would never happen. I felt it appropriate that the goals were scored by Lambert, Lallana, Waigo & Antonio, for me, they seemed to do epitomise our JPT run. I was also pleased that when Chris Perry got on the pitch. The only disappointment I have is that the club seemed to treat our win as a bit of an embarrassment, the trophy was never paraded at SMS & isn’t even in the squad photo. Oh I miss Waigo & Antonio too.

In your avatar it looks like his head is too small for his body.

Alp D'Huez is pretty good for kids & novices, plenty of easy runs & also some reds & blacks for the more adventurous.

Not forgetting 4 of these were penalties apparently

May 14th is the FA Cup Final. Would they play on the same day as that? I want to see a band on the 10th May, our last game is on the 7th, so I assume I wont need to choose.
