So has he signed yet? This all sounds pretty convincing to me.

Do your taps still work?

If for no other reason, he wasnt born when Dallas was going....

Not worth a death threat, but the ref was indeed dreadful. We were poor though. A draw was flattering, feeble in possession and very little attacking threat. We looked shaky even trying to keep possession in defence. What Milner was doing on the pitch is beyond me.

If I get time I'll find the page again and post the link. Southampton isn't under that category, but the website implies heavily that the whole area covered by Southern Water is affected, which is not the case. It took iirc around 5 page links to find that out, and they were all links you wouldn't have thought were the obvious ones.

We aren't. They make that even harder to find out, it took me and a mate several hours of searching to get that information.

link; http://www.ofwat.gov.uk/consumerissues/meters/prs_faq8_consissuesmeters The information displayed is still valid, (I checked with Ofwat,) although the date of the page shows as 2009.

The hot tub might well give the water company the right to bill by volume, the garden supply is only applicable if its an automated irrigation system (rather than you standing outside watering with a hosepipe.)

Go to the Ofwat website and search for metering charges. I'll find the link and post it, basically it says you dont have to accept metered billing if you dont want to but once you have you are stuck with it.

Dont think Southampton was covered by the hosepipe ban, although southern water initially made it very difficult to find that out. They have altered their website now so you can search your postcode, and discover that it doesnt apply here. In much the same way, they have been forcing water meters on reluctant customers and simply telling them thats how we will be billed in future. They seem less keen to publicise the fact that Ofwat have ruled that any consumer can refuse this, (not the installation of a meter, which the company have the right to install whether you like it or not, but the invoicing by volume of water,) unless you are already billed that way. And unless you object in writing before your first metered bill arrives, you are stuck with it from then on. They also skirt neatly past the fact that if you agree to pay by metered volume you have the right to insist on a separate meter on your garden supply (which goes into the ground as opposed to down the drain.)

.....and thats putting the kindest possible spin on it.

NOOOOOOOO!!!! Keep the bastards out, they made their own currency so let them enjoy it. And fwiw, dune makes an entirely valid point. Its all about Germany.

Who cares a fart about sky. Murdochs a c*nt that ought to be dead by now anyway.

If youre buying a secondhand motor for £7m, dont you at least wait til it gets back from mexico so you can kick the tyres?

Ponder no more jamie, wear the pink ones like always.

This looks classy, what do you reckon?

Whats your prediction for our finishing position in the prem this season, Dalek?

Ah, the wonderboy Ali Dia. If only Gateshead hadn't poached him off us.......

I happen to agree with you in principle minty, but if I was actually in that situation I might change my mind. He's probably getting more in a month than I make in a year, that might alter my perception of things especially if my current employer was the only avenue of gainful employment open to me.

....must not post.......must not post.......must not post.......

Presumably he shows up for training, so he isnt doing sweet fa for his wages, just missing 90 minutes on a saturday. He has a contract with the club which presumably they weren't forced into, if they dont want to use him but cant find anyone to buy him he is entitled to draw the wages agreed until that contract expires. Puncheon said as much a while ago, and he's right.

To be fair, I always expected him to lamp a ref at some point. And he delivered!!

It should be a saintsweb rule that no sentence containing the words "roy keane" will omit the word "c*nt". imho.

You just put your finger on it. I have yet to see Fox play badly, but he gets cut no slack at all if he doesnt play a blinder. And I havent accused you of racism, if you got that impression then I apologise.
