    When You Retire ?

    We have friends who live in the French Alps and they were telling me that education is free in France until they are 26. They have a real shortage of qualified tradesmen, like plumbers, electricians & carpenters, which is annoying for our friends as 2 of their kids are nearly fully qualified but...

    sbs&l group accounts 2018

    Leicester will be paying Norwich for Maddison in instalments over a couple of years so any money owed to us by Norwich will also be paid in instalments and not in a lump sum. I would expect, although I am not an accountant, that each instalment that we receive through the financial year is added...

    When You Retire ?

    I want to retire in 3 years time when I'm 60 but will probably wait until my son finishes school a year or so later. I've got a reasonable pension pot but not enough to retire on now and quite a bit in savings so I suppose I will start using that before my pension. I want to buy a campervan and...

    sbs&l group accounts 2018

    Isn't the Maddison money likely to be paid in instalments and could therefore be in more than 1 set of accounts? That will probably be the same for the McNulty fee.

    Boxing day game

    I normally park just off Rowley's Green Lane and it's a 10 minute walk and will be parking there for the game on the 29th before heading straight back to Scotland. I will only park in Tesco's if it is close to kick-off time, is there a time limit for parking at Tesco's?

    Footballers with socks above knees....

    You can still buy those but more seem to go for the ones that just tuck in behind the sock. It's the current boots that I don't get, the coloured ones are like slippers and if someone goes over the top of them with their studs they will just rip open. Then there are the ones without laces with a...

    Just for fun: name that player.....

    Correct. Did he as my memory thinks get subbed off in the first half or half time of his full debut? I also think we never saw him again after that

    Just for fun: name that player.....

    A Scottish winger signed by John Sillett and played only 4 times. I think his debut was as a substitute and when he made his first start at HR he was substituted either at half time or in the first half
