Well yes, one thing on her hasn't changed, I read other members posts and am sometimes inclined to google what they said, I've learned a lot.
It does help that I love history and read, listen to podcasts and I'm on a facebook poage of a couple of authors who are happy to answer questions.
Mike Duncan did podcasts about the history of Rome then he did Revolutions and I've listened to them all up to the Spanish American revolts, just done Venezuela (1811)
Every day is a learning day. |

You can do it online now, our surgery has been doing it for at least a year BUT you have the problem that you can't book an appointment. You send your stuff in and the GP reviews it, if they feel you need an appointment they contact you otherwise they will phone you but you don't know when.
Last time I waited for a call back I waited all day, at 17.45 I had given up but then she rang. |

didn't he say it on live tv too? Then he backtracked so quickly it was like a Muchael Jackson moonwalk on speed AND fast forward (for those of us who remember VHS  )
It's diificult to know who is dumb and who is dumber! They all seem to be dead keen to outdo each other. |

Well a ref who supports Manyoo can hardly ref Manyoo. It's not the same as an English ref taking a club match though. You're strecthing now, searching for reasons that aren't there.
Would you be ok with, say...a Cardiff fan reffing us? |

Yeah, I ignore him now. It's groundhog day with him and there's only so mnay times I can do that before it just gets too boring.
I'm even fairly confident of what response he would make to this bceuase he is so predictable. |

Our previous owners had both a lack of ambition AND were clueless too.
What Wrexham are apparently planning would be insanity. There are much bigger places than Wrexham that aren't so close to genuinely big clubs that would never dream of a stadium that big and for very good reason. Ambition has to be tempered by common sense.
A 55k stadium in Wrexham would be a massive waste of money and probably wouldn't be full every week in the EPL unless they gave away fans 20000 tickets. |

I can tell everybody something for nothing, if they charge 50 quid per head for the Citeh game I won't be going.
I am it a cash cow to be milked and the amount of money they make from it will in no way be worth the number of fans they alienate. I could see it not selling out and in fact it may even cause such a fuss it becomes a protest.
People already moan our crowds are too low and then somebody suggests this! |

On the OP, it cannot be right. This has to be a step too far. We have known for a very ling time that breeding with a closely relative causes defects, look at Royalty and all the idiots they sired.
Has common sense really been relegated to the basement and locked away never to be seen again? |

The richest? What, richer than Russia or the DRC? Richer than the USA, Canada or Saudi?
Wales was raped for it's mineral wealth but that is history now.

That limited perspective may even include them looking to their own futures and writing their own loopholes in which they can take with them to the accountancy firms when they leave the civilservice. |

Reply | Swansea City v Millwall : Match day thread

I think we are better than 13th. I went to Boro and wirnessed a very close game where we were poor but inly suffered a narrow defeat.
The truth is this division is very much of a muchness, there aren't standout teams this season. Not yet anyway, maybe somebody can play themselves into form but the 3 relegated teams have all been meh too.
We have a better squad this season, we need performances to reflect that and then I think we are good enough for anywhere from 5-12.
I do think that after this start Sheehan must be starting to feel the pressure. He's been backed strongly, the owners will give him a good chance but he won't be here at seasons end if he can'tturn things around. Our current performances aren't good enough, no pace, no passion (except from a few) and a bit too lacksadaisical by a few too. |

My turn,having waited a while to cool down because today really riled me.
First the ref, he booked Cabango for a shirt pull, ayt half time the stats were 3 fouls by us and 10 by Millwall with 2 of them being taking a players legs from behind but he didn't book them. In the second it continued for a while with the oppo getting away with loads of shirt pulling, shoves in the back and general shithousery. They are a dirty team.
Second, Key today was utter garbage, he was useless in defence and kept slowing is down going forward to the point somebody called him a Grimes clone. No, not me.
We lacked fire and urgency, we slowed it down and let them organise their defence, we dodn't try quick pass and move we just stood around. several times we literally lost possession because the ball holder had no one to pass to.
When we did attack with pace it was usually Inoussa and he looked dangerous. Galbraith was trying but all too often players took the easy option, sideways or backwards instead of going for the forward pass. We made some bad decisions.
The goal, in my opinion, was just shit. Cabango was being fouled and Vigoroux should have claimed the ball but he just froze on his line, the keeper should have had it but he's not brave enough. He did something similar at Birmingham, he had a one on one but he was favourite, he didn't try to smother the ball but let the forward get there first, fortunately he made a good save.
Vipotnik played well and deserved better. Aside from him, Inoussa and Galbraith U can't say anybody plyed really well, they were just blurgh.
Millwall are spoilers and they were helped by an idiot ref, they bullied us and he let them get away with it time and again.
Where has all the passion and desire gone, we had it last season when Sheehan took over. Is the big difference that now he IS the boss full time, he feels the pressure and isn't making the best decisions? On paper we have a much better squad but our results are worse.
Such are my thoughts on today.
PS, before I forget, Idah looks a long way from the player want, just like Vip did last season. Idah looks a waste of money but maybe in 12 months time he'll have caught up! |

And what I found says that only Ireland and Italy have higher prices than us, but not by much, 0.05 and 0.03 USA pennies per KwH respectively.
https://www.statista.com/statistics/263492/electricity-prices-in-selected-countr
With Belgium and Germany having the same price as the UK. These numbers being this year.
Edit, the point being though, we are paying more than needs be and that is because of government policy that, at the end of the day, is pointless and meaningless in the grand sheme of things. [Post edited 27 Sep 17:02]

That was why I referenced Blair, he had top accountancy firms to advise his tax changes but they then wrote the loopholes in the big firms used to help their rich clients.
The government has its own tax experts, they should be able to re-write the eules themselves and remove loopholes, if not then they are not fit for purpose. |
