We have one of those days here where there is clear blue sky and a bright sun, then every now and again it goes dark, the wind gets up and the heavens open. A couple of lady collegues here at work have started lunch time walks and I sometimes join them, can do about 3+ miles in a lunch hour. Well today our timing was impeccable. 100yds (note yards) up the road the rain started, then lashed it down. We shortened the walk and I am now sitting at my desk in bare feet (socks and shoes on radaitor to dry) and soggy trousers. The sun is now shining brightly!
I expect that a number of your received the questions from the club. Not too sure what they will do with my contribution, but having read this article I now know that it will be cleaned and chopped up into segments. http://www.goodform.info/newssectio...appoint Goodform§ion=29§ionTitle=News
Interesting to see the debate in the UK about gas and electricity prices. The French press are reporting that gas prices will decrease from 1st December by about 1% after a 2% rise at the beginning of the year. It is much harder to switch suppliers here than in the UK, and there is little choice, but the government has a much tighter control on what we are charged, although half the country has no access to natural gas. Being in November now, you as a landlord cannot evict a tenant from your property even if they fall behind with the rent, because the nights are becoming colder. Not really sure that either country is right or wrong in the way that they try to govern, but is becoming very clear that Mr. Hollande with his socialist principles is having to bow to economic facts that are beyond his control.

There are many on the black market for large ammounts of money.

Lock em up. The other thing I would like to disappear is the extortionate "booking fee".

I bought tickets to see Roddy Frame in December - £45 a pop with £5 a ticket booking fee. Nice work if you can get it
Wholly agree - many years ago we ended up with a spare ticket for the play-off final againt the Sheep worriers when one of our group had to drop out at very short circumstances due to a family matter - we just took the ticket with us and sold it at face value outside of Wembley to a ticketless Leicester fan who had travelled in the hope of buying one from a tout etc - he actually asked whether we wanted more for it and our response .... 'don't be daft' ... got a lot of satisfaction from seeing the pissed off looks from a couple of nearby touts ... Booking fees - the craziest one is having to pay a 'booking fee' for picking up on-line ordered tickets from an automated machine at the venue ... how the hell does that make sense ... is it for the oil on the internal mechanisms?
I came back to work to find this e-mail from one of my colleagues that was sent to me on the day we played Brighton: "Seen that Watford are on Sky sometime soon, is it against Man U in the Capital One Cup tomorrow night?" I know the spirit in which it was intended, so it doesn't bother me, but as the sender is a Norwich fan, I think it only fair that canary-dave gives his opinion on it.
If it was me I'd probably respond with... "Thankfully no, not us. Their reserves would likely stuff us 4-0. Only thing worse would be having to play Man City - then we'd really get hammered." ... if he can give it ...
An excellent response FF, Barry, if one of our's has upset you, I humbly apologise, all teams have the odd numpty fan, fortunately we don't have too many of them!
