The Hornet's Nest

We got stuck in Pau in 2006 trying to get back when there was the terrorist scare about fluids or whatever - had a nightmare time - Ryanair did not have anyone available to tell us when or if they would supply a flight

 

I used to be Finance Director of London Luton Airport and it was in the early days of Easyjet there - we had an ongoing battle with them over how much they would pay the airport (which incidentally they did) and they quoted lots of European Airports where they got paid - often by the Local Council to bring in passengers

 

Has anyone noticed that there has not been a single post to our old Nest on 606 today - the Beeb won so easily

 

Shall I be the one to mention Andrew Taylor to come back on loan, especially after Mowbrays comments on Bennett??

Preparing to duck and cover

 

If I'm honest Lenny, I'm preferring the not606 site now and only really pop over to 606 for SLB's Prediction League.

Speaking of which, when is he going to update the league table?

 

Oh and Lenny, I shall definately be watching your posts for financial tips after THAT job title you just drop in there.

 

I see Norwich and Posh have had a falling out over CMS...

£2m + £1m price tag for League 1's top scorer

Will he still be available if DG goes and would we be able to afford him (and would we want him, anyway?)

 

After my feeble effort on the prediction league last week, I am pleased that he has not up-dated it.

 

Agreed Sandy - this site has lots of advantages - not least the ability to add to your posts quickly - and to do two or three after each other if you want to reply to others - still find all the statistics a bit odd and unnecessary but perhaps some people like them

Also so far the biggest wummers have not found their way here. I am sure they will in time though

I am hoping that Ak manages to attract more cross-club posters to his match threads as inter club banter is usually quite good

 

And on the note of stuff I've seen today - OFH, did you sign up for Twitter? Numbers of accounts are growing at half a million a day. And there are a cool 1 billion tweets every day. http://blog.twitter.com/2011/03/numbers.html for those who love numbers.

Lenny I doubt even the mighty London L***n Airport could get a number that big. [[Insert your own joke here about the number of people from Bandit Country who...]]

 

Sandy - it was quite a while ago ( I left them in 2001) - and I retired altogether three years ago so have forgotten anything useful I ever knew - I now look for financial advice form the likes of Roo and the next generation

 

COYH - you are dead right - our numbers were not that impressive - and as for twitter - I still cannot "twit"

 

Hi Lenny
Is that a moderator I see before me. Congratulations! So we now have you to blame if our posts get randomly axed Which hasn't happened to me, yet.

 

Twitter....me? No, not enough hours in the day and I am retired like Leo.

Who needs moderating on this site?

Leo maybe, but I can't think of anyone else.

 

COYH - no random axing here - this is not the BBC site and so far there has not been anyone who has said they have been modded on here - long may that continue

 

OFH - did you, like me, think that being retired would give you more hours in the day than you knew what to do with - my only fear was that I would be so bored I woud go back to work - I gave myself 6 months at first and thought if I did not like retirement I would take another job - that never happened - I have never had so much to do - and love it

 

Sorry must have had a bad memory moment

 

A View attachment 1362 for the new moderator - congratulations Lenny

 

Bolton - now if I were open to bribes - you have found my weakness - looks like it is impossible for you to say anything to be modded

 

In that case Lenny, I'm getting in with this one to keep me going for the rest of the season.
