Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement.
Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph
Because this does NOT add up!
No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies…

You chose the right game to miss. Dull as dishwater first half, not going to be much for the highlight package there, but last 25 was much better.

Ness has got to be ahead of Aljofree now, surely?

Don't know about that. I wondered if it was coined by an English speaker but turns out it was a Belgian.
It's kind of equivalent to 'nouvelle cuisine', though, so I think 'art nouveau' is technically incorrect.

You were right first time! Nouveau(x) is a BAGS adjective - beauty, age, goodness, size - so comes before the noun.

Wife got the alert about 30 seconds before I did, but at least we both got it this time. Time difference is probably because our phones may have been connected to different local masts.
The alert was supposed to be 'around 3pm' with some people getting it a minute or so before, and some after.

The other half of the Market Place display. I like the aurora picture and the scouts used their own pets' hair to make the animal (owl/bear?) in their woodland scene.

This is the left half of the Market Place scene. The theme is Natural Wonders this year. Can't remember seeing an active volcano in the village but I can be a bit forgetful at times.

Crich village fête this weekend so the Well Dressings are out so we went for a little walk round to have a look at them all.

Yes but being a free agent doesn't mean they're no good. Players run down their contracts all the time, e.g. Ruben at Notts, and Trent at Liverpool, two quick examples that sprang to my mind.

Registrations and contracts usually end on 30 June, so lots of players will be free agents as of today. Hopefully Notts have got a couple agreed and ready to announce this week.

Yes Chesterfield away on Boxing Day will probably be a bun fight to get tickets anyway
