Just checked my SSC account and I've got 4 but one of these is Poland which should drop off and be replaced by Lithuania. So, do I apply as a 3 or 4 ?

We did a 7 night Gulet trip starting and finishing in montenegro and visiting Dubrovnik & cavtat. Highlight was sailing through the bay, surrounded by mountains up to Kotor. One thing I learnt was there is no love lost between the two countries and don't offer to pay with croatian kuna in montenegro or euros in croatia

I've stayed here http://www.intercontinentalmarkhopkins.com/ just up the road from Union Square, there is a bar on the top floor well worth a visit for the views. We bought a 3 day transport pass that covered unlimited travel on buses and cable cars, used it to go out to The Golden Gate but that was a bit of a drag of a journey. No need for a car in downtown SFO as you`d spend a fortune parking it

Booked an apartment in Killarney and will use that as a base. Paid £101 each for return flights Stansted to Kerry, including parking & car hire.

For anybody driving down this evening and coming off the M1 to go round the M25 toward Heathrow/ Hertfordshire/ Surrey - last night they had roadworks round the stretch between junction 19 and 17 which meant they reduced 4 lanes into 1 lane from 10pm onwards - took me an hour to do 3 miles

You can also jump off the Jubilee line at Finchley Road - walk across the platform and take any Metropolitan Line train, next stop Wembley Park - saves you stopping at 5 stations on the Jubilee Line

Aviva Community Fund
arbroath55 posted a topic in Anything Goes - Other topics not covered elsewhere
As well as being a friendly pub landlord I am also Chair of 1st Bushey Heath Scout Group. Could I ask you to look at our entry into the Aviva Community Fund project and vote for us. Voting may involve spending a few minutes registering but will not involve you spending money... you are entitled to 10 votes so if there are more local causes then use your votes for those but perhaps spare us one. For afficiandos of 1980`s pop music a local lad, Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou used to be one of our Cubs. Thank you Michael https://www.avivacommunityfund.co.uk/voting/project/view/16-2098 -
Looking for 3 tickets - all for pals who have just never signed up for SSC but have travelled with our group to Malta, Gibralter, Germany, Warsaw ( twice ) and Nigeria over the last couple of seasons.

Zander - you got the number for the company you got the minibus through ? -
There`s two of us and I guess if a few more pop their heads up we can look for some sort of shared ride

In true Arsene style I never saw the incident but here`s how the Telegraph reported it Albani, a 19-year-old student, was sent on as a substitute while Scotland waited to take a corner in injury time and made straight for Hendry, grabbing the Scot's jersey as soon as he came within reach. As Hendry kept his eye on the ball, Albani hung on, almost dragging his jersey off in the process. Hendry tried twice to dislodge Albani with his right elbow and the youngster can be seen to punch the Scotland captain in the ribs with his free hand.

I have a pub and spend about £980 a month on electricity and have been with npower for 13 years. Despite my loyalty every year at renewal time they send me a letter with proposed rates which are about 30% more than I'm paying now. We then go through this routine of me threatening to leave - they come up with a better deal - I then find a better deal from another supplier - they come up with a better deal........you can see where this is going Just wondered if the onus is always on the customer to come up with a better quote from a competitor ? or how does the whole thing work, are there any other concessions that could be asked for eg loyalty bonuses

You youngsters are spoilt with your all seater stadiums and stalls selling organic goats milk yoghurt pies and skinny Bovrils. Back in the day we used to get squeezed onto terraces and spent most of the game standing on tiptoe, 4 to a square foot. At the old Wembley a pish was a good 20 minute round journey.

It's good to know you guys up north are thinking about us, it's tough down here but we're trying to make do. The baker has just managed to get here but sadly his croissants were a bit cold and limp so we had to do without, one of our bins has blown over and the council can't get here till 2pm -
I second that emotion
