It depends what you are selling! Electronics on eBay is 3% commision clothing is going to 17% in may. Note: postage charges rise this week!

Franked mail boxes are huge with a hopper like a clothing bin to allow you to post parcels. As an eBay seller It would be useful to know the location of them round our area. ( you just print your postage and drop it in the box) To start this off there is one at NURSLING Industrial estate on the duel carriageway at the side of B&Q Last pickup 18:45 There is also one in Mitchell Way at Eastleigh airport Last pickup 20:00 A good tip is to take a photo of the info panel on the post box! Also note that Shirley postoffice has an oval mail box with 2 slightly bigger slots.

Don't write a letter , Ignore them.

Near the bottom of pic 1, See the plastic grey White box on a copper pipe with a White cable leading up to the timer. Give the pipe below it a whack whilst holding the pipe. It may also have a tiny manual leaver which you can move but will slowly return to it original position. It is the autatic valve that directs hot water to the water tank or the radiators.

The concern to me is your pension. You have contributed 12 years of a 40? Year pension. Which is 50% of final salery. This will only give you 1/7th of your final salary. (wage/2/40x12=pension) if you were on £30k you will only get £4.5k at 55. You need a new career with a significant pension.

I hope those that are going to buy a season ticket do so now. Mainly because the fools running the club will blow the cash over the summer and it will all start to collapse again in early autumn as the gate receipts fail to match their overheads.

I don't feel any sorrow or grief if the person lived a long life. Both my parents died young of nasty illnesses. In both cases I wanted the inevitable end to hurry up. That does not help the grieving process I lost a friend I was working on. A project with. I really miss him and his input. He truly is irreplaceable. The project died with him. I do feel sorrow that my dad couldn't be here today with todays technology to play with. He was at the cutting edge at IBM and was always making, improving, improvising. He was on the team that brought the first cash machine to Lloyds. He built the first calculator I had ever seen from a kit. He added return flow thermostats to our coal fired central heating system to prevent the water overheating and popping. He added a small rear airfoil to our estate car that kept the rear window clean. My poor mum had the same eletrolux vacuum for 30 years because he kept repairing it. I can only guess what home automation he might. Have cobbled together with a pc and a few wifi toys.

'Pompey new company' probably hasn't got a credit rating. That is why they can't handle credit cards. And they need the cash now.

As a pennys worth of petrol becomes a smaller and smaller amount it gets harder to measure. Excuse me sir! You put two electrons too many in your tank!

The future of the solar system is such a huge thing, an amazing thing. But it can never compete with the search for the missing phone charger!

http://www.uhy-uk.com/media/download/portsmouth%20reports/Final%20progress%20report.pdf Portsmouth City Football Club Limited Final Progress Report to Creditors 18 Transfer fees £17,303,818 Players’ bonuses £1,250,638 Ex‐Players’ Compromise Agreements £785,000 Players’ Image Rights £1,504,151 Employee Benefit Trust £1,540,000 As you are aware, a number of football clubs were owed monies in respect of transfer fees and have been paid directly by the PL from current parachute payments. The PL previously advised that the football creditor category consists of football clubs and players/ staff, in respect of wages only.PFC10 are currently reaching agreements with all players and former players in respect of their outstanding bonuses whereby they will be paid off over a period of time. At this stage it is not believed that Ex‐Player Compromise Agreements, Image Rights or Employee Benefit Trusts are classed as football creditors. This will be reviewed further by the duly appointed Liquidator.

The news that image rights monies and agents fees are not footballing debts is good news and should be publicised. Agents and players will look harder at the Micky Mouse finances at the club they are going to with fear they will not get all their money. It gives the honest clubs an advantage.

There wasn't even enough money to pay the administrator

If they are going to "lose millions" then they should invest in some wafer thin touch panels and remove the tiles. I am sure a touch panel does not need to be 50mm thick. An iPhone is 8mm thick and is an effective touch panel ( it don't like getting wet though)

Does this happen in any other industry? If I want to buy your shoe factory would I be expected to give £1m non refundable just to see the books & find out the seller is a liar? I'll sell you my car, I'll charge you £2k just to see the service history & the milage.

How can they get paid? They haven't sold any players! I like the way they can't find any land to develop for training. I heard there was this chap next door who owned a goods yard. They should try and get on his better side and try an approach. The reason they did the. Last preseason far away from home was to protect the players from the constant bad news at home. They must be expecting a repeat performance?

I wonder what new excuse can be used to explain the failure of the bank transfers this month?

Chainrai, brother Deepak, and business partner Levi Kushnir are in talks to find Portsmouth's fifth new owner since Sasha Gaydamak sold the club in 2009. "If I get my money back, I would consider myself very lucky." said Chainrai, speaking in Hong Kong to a 'Portsmouth - The Inside Story' special report on Sky Sports News HD. "The point here is not to make money but exit and hand over the reins. If I get money back I would be very happy. My intentions are to find a new buyer to stabilise it and inject new funds into it and take it back to its glory days. We would not sell the club just to anybody." (he said as he crossed his fingers)

HMRC AND THE FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION Premier League's (FAPL) court battle over insolvency rules has been postponed in order to await the decision in a separate insolvency hearing involving Lehman Brothers Special Financing. Both the taxman and FAPL were expected to put forward their arguments over the controversial football creditors rule to the High Court yesterday, with a trial date expected to be set shortly after. HMRC is battling to have the football creditor rule overturned as it believes the rule - which prioritises the payment of players, managers and clubs in the event of a club entering administration - is "unlawful". A spokesman for HMRC said: "The hearing originally expected this week has been adjourned by agreement of the parties pending the decision of the Supreme Court in the case of Lehman Brothers Special Financing Inc -v- Belmont Park Investments PTY Ltd and others, and to enable the parties to consider whether there is anything in that decision which affects their position." HMRC is basing its FAPL court battle on two legal arguments. It believes the Lehman Brothers action will touch on one of the arguments against the Football Association, and is awaiting judgment before continuing. The taxman's case is based on both the pari passu rule which means creditors should be treated equally and without preference as they are in other insolvency cases; and the second is based on restrictive practices which force football clubs in the FAPL to abide by its insolvency rules - which HMRC deem unlawful. The taxman filed papers to the Royal Courts of Justice on 18 May labelling the football creditors rule as "unlawful" because it believes the rule is outside the laws of insolvency. One example that angered HMRC was in the Portsmouth FC administration, where the taxman is likely to be paid just one-fifth of an estimated £37m it is owed.

I think the only test was not being convicted of a crime that exceeds 6? months in jail!

Ok now you are a star, images in the papers and all that ... D_P are you going to form a company in the virgin isle and get image rights payments package arranged?

The BBC stated that the HMRC are in court today trying to sort out the order in which fooball clubs pay thier debts. They then flashed a long picture of Poortsmoufh and then liverpool ? I assume the BBC were in a cack handed way, refering to the football creditors rule. http://www.accountancyage.com/aa/news/2026081/hmrc-begin-premier-league-court-battle#ixzz1E0qnaPdg .
