Well you were lucky to have set amounts of guarenteed pupils to your lessons to be able to plan that way. I earn over a year what i earn and can't plan and add on for holidays. If you were charging £50 a lesson and had full classes that was the going rate, not with an extra added on. Your pupils would not have paid over the going rate against your competition. So you were not really adding on, you just had not read the market price correctly and so got lucky to have the premium. If a dance class was open next door and was charging £30 you would not have been able to charge £50 as market forces would dictate.

the squad hardly crushed all that came was put in front of it last season. How can we expect RL to score 20 goals again at a level he has not played at? He is a great player for us but AL will not be such a threat also as the defenders are another grade higher. Jaidi struggled in games and looked shot a lot of the time, he will be another year older, Seabourne was made to look slow at times and our midfield rarelty outshone the opposition. Letrs hope the club dip into the funds and strengthen, it was hard getting up , lets not throw it away.

It is a tad amusing that when it suits , its up to Gove but when things are to be changed that are not so palatable its lets walk out on strike. I have been self employed all my working life and so have a different slant on perks and holidays. I get no paid leave, I dont get paid if i dont work or go on holiday.So forgive me if i dont seem to have any sympathy. I have a rubbish pension as I did not contribute a large slice of my income into one, no index linked final salalry stuff for us

Teachers training days, why are they not taken during the many school holidays? I wish they were around when I was they didn't even close when it was snowing. It seems a nonsense to me. Surely you are either trained or you are not.

I find it sad that so many are not worried that our high streets independents are going to the wall. In the next few years every high street will be the same with the same goods and retailers. how sad is that? The charity shops get low cost staff and rates, and can compete against independent retailers,and can easily take on the best prime small retail units. Southampton used to have lots of secondhand shops but now some down to the large charity shop in Shirley have closed. I try to go to independents and as long as they are within 15% of the internet I will buy from them for the personal service alone. I recently purchased a digital camera that way. When the high street is a monopoly to a few major players watch the prices then, as the not only will dominate the high street their muscle will get them to the top of the web and be able to afford the miore expensive key words on Google Adwords. Some of the keywords I have to use cost £1.89 a click.

and you voted for Michael Foot Lol

CMS for me as I think he has has pace intelligence and runs his heart out for the team.The defences never can relax. The other 2 seem to me to be goal poachers. If RL can set up a few flicks and passes CMS could be very effective.

that lad who danced all night!!!! and was stood by the speakers! My ears still have not recovered yet

can you tell us how many are on 4-8k a year? I doubt that is the average. What is a teachers [pension, or a civil servants?

yeah good entertainers and say some quite outrageous things about other groups/singers lol

i went there for the first time last night. It struck me that Southampton is lucky to have such a music venue. I listened to a local band The Lost Boys , (Southampton lads) and thought they were very good, how they are unsigned is a mystery to me. They were supporting Dodgy who were a class act.

To be fair i have only seen him play a few times and so your mate might know better. The times Ive seen him he has been very good. Not of great height but neither is Terry or Baird

He is a great signing for them, a really brave defender. A cherry fan told me that in the playoff 2nd leg he got a terrible gash on his leg but didnt tell the staff as he didnt want to be taken off. That is the type of player who will do well in any form of sport.

well this is the internet not the FBI, if i had evidence i wouldn't be putting it on here. Perhaps if I put it on Twitter would that be enough Lol

Elliot Ward apparently

Perhaps we are difficult to deal with. NC seems to have made a rule that if the interest gets out we walk from a deal. The agent like and auctioneer wont like the fact they can't use someone else to push the price up. I think that is shrewd and perhaps in time we will gain from it. As for an agent not wanting to deal with us and lose out on commission i suspect is unlikely.

our bid was before all the hype about CMS. It was a case that we spotted the talent and tried to get him before the inflated prices started.

why was he in Germany for treatment?

it was from a Take That concert

it is a disgrace that her management let her go out on stage.

Mike I do hope the size has been really been thought about. it has to be carried and also if the crowd is not as big as sometimes it will look pretty alame as it gets handled from row to row

I can sense a quiet confidence from you, you probably kno0w who is going to join you. I will not be making any predictions as ive seen the lucky stick stick fall on your side of the fence too many times in the last 5 years.

Thanks for that

Deppo is not my hero. I admired his humour though and feel that a strategy to get him removed was distasteful. Whether you were part of that is not really the point, it is that this site has been lessened by his removal.

isn't fishing infractable, i think you should go and report it to Baj?
