How much will it cost to move the empty houses to where people want to live?

If someone tells a ref to f off then that's saying they don't agree with a decision, ( dissent), you're a f***er ref is foul and abusive language directed at the character of the ref - a totally different thing.

This. Have been hitting the cards heavily recently. Have maxed out on a number of occasions recently but buying online for building materials, kitchen, bathrooms etc. it is the safest way. Interestingly, probably due to paying them off in full and on time, my credit rating has increased...

The number of instances where IHT could be applied is likely to increase if you look at the fall in marriage/civil partnership numbers and the increased number of divorces where either one or both partners don't remarry. The difference in IHT rules regarding property owned as "tenants in...

The irony is that if Everton had gone into administration before the PL made their ruling over FFP they'd have only been deducted 9 points

FFP in all it's forms and across all divisions has always struck me as an unnecessary interference in how clubs are run. If the regulations are followed to the letter the only area of spending that is effectively controlled is player costs. Most other areas fall outside of control by FFP...

Not marking ten yards there isn't - just a dash in the dead ball line

Why aren't there quadrants marked at each corner flag rather than just a dash mark on each dead ball line?

We're currently building a new home and receive regular visits from building control, warranty inspections and planning visits. I can only assume that inspections on big developments is somewhat less stringent than the ones we get. For instance our first plumber laid all the first fix pipes...

What race were you watching? LH had the good grace to admit the coming together was 100% his error

Knowing how difficult it is to kill a sycamore tree I’ll be very surprised if during spring next year that stump doesn’t sprout a number of new shoots. in this instance, it is fortunate that sycamores are fast growing.

I can only assume that those saying the Newcastle fans were only noisy at the end were in the North stand. Understandable because the noise coming from there was terrific all game. However from the halfway line the Geordies were also noisy for most of the game coming to a crescendo from...

The Newcastle fans were immense today. Constant noise in that second half and after the match all seemed relatively cheerful and friendly.

Have been getting quotes over the last few weeks for plastering a complete new build. We have been offered two options by different companies and individuals. A “day rate” and a “job rate”. Those offering a job rate have tended to be the more experienced, (and older), individuals. When I...

Try explaining to a 4 year old the concept of money without cash!

Went to a school fete on Saturday - no sign of a card machine.

No, on the face of it, i don‘t endorse the actions of those particular protesters any more than I approve of the behaviour of some drivers, some football fans or some of almost any group you care to mention. None of that diminishes my opinion that the cause JSO is fighting for is worthwhile and...

On the face of it that sounds perfectly reasonable - however since the changes to the Public Order Act this year peaceful static demonstrations outside government buildings is fraught with problems. There is already an “exclusion zone” around Parliament which can be extended by ministers and...

From personal experience I think it is unlikely that trying to dig all the roots out is practical without damaging the shrubs and trees if the problem is as bad as you describe. When we first moved to our current home we literally had acres of brambles, wild roses and blackthorn. The most...
