Hurrah!

Not being made redundant! Hurrah! But still going for interview for a pharm tech at the local mental health unit anyway. Ended up in Devon this weekend seeing the parents. And the other billions of relatives I seem to have amalgamated. Ra

Good news on the job front!

1) If football clubs are generally not financially viable, why do so many exist?

There are thousands of clubs in the UK and the majority are staffed by volunteers and part-time staff. The players play for free and they get a few hundred supporters per match.

Once you get into the league they have better grounds and start getting more people showing up so that can start to pay for better coaching staff and some of the clubs will be semi-pro. As you climb the league more clubs become pro until you get to the Premiere league with silly wages.

Many clubs are kept afloat by their fans - a fact many of the big clubs charging £45 per ticket per game seem to have forgotten.

Well chuffed with job - but looks liek there is still another round of redundancies to be made, but not before 6 months is up. Another anxious wait....
Farnborough Town is just so screwed, no money going into the club, infighting withing management and running as an insolvant business. What is going to happen next??

A doctor calls a plumber in to fix something. The plumber comes around and fixed the problem in half an hour. He then hands the doctor the bill.

The doctor exclaims in surprise "I'm a doctor, and I don't make this sort of money per hour" upon seeing the labour charge.

The plumber replies "Neither did I when I was a doctor."

You and Mr A have something in common - dreadful jokes!!!

I agree to a certain extent - there are a few managers who are in it for the money and not loyal to the club. There have been incidences of the plyers having to change clubs because they are signed by a management company and not the club itself - very strange ways of doing things but all above board. Saying that, I was screaming along with the wife of the Chairman of Farnborough Town at the Exeter match. She seems nice.

It keeps them off the streets.

2) Just found out a story about a young lady who was being sick (a bit drunk) and a group of guys approaching her to stick a part of their anatomy in her mouth and videophone it. Allegedly to be posted on the web somewhere. Is this a widespead practice?

Putting rape videos on the internet? I think there is a market for it unfortunatly.

3) Can Benecol give you a dodgy windy stomach?

Probably.

4) Does the Pope sound a little like Darth Vader at the moment or is that being blasphemous?

It's insulting to Darth Vader.

5) How rude was Fingersmith the other night?

I have no clue. 7
