First united match met John Gidman . Had pints with him. I had 7 pints . One for every year of my life.
Actually did meet Gordon hill as I clutched on to my uncle . No idea what he was saying though and may not have been him either . Feck it this could have been a dream, scratch.
Gerry Daly now there was a nice man. (If that was his real name ) .Last edited by Solksjaer!; 13-09-17, 07:49.

So we've both independently come to the same conclusion. Wonder what the line is between normal toddler crazy running and clearly abnormal running? Can't really describe it well but its like he only runs on his tip-toes and seems to bound all over the place. He's been at this for about half a year, so its not like its some phase he's going through.
As long as 'if she had of had her wits about her' is used in any way, sexual assault will always carry a caveat of victim blaming.
It's a dog whistle saying men cannot control themselves and she should be on her guard, sure she went back to his house she should have expected it. No, we are not all rapists. The guys doing the raping are the problem not the helpless person being raped.
George has tried to be clever and spark debate but his starting point is so off it shows him up for the crass out of touch dinosaur he is. That he has done something equally moronic with the HPV vaccine is.further proof of his idiocyPeople say I should be more humble I hope they understand, they don't listen when you mumble

I was also one of the top runners in my school, so running like that obviously never affected my sporting ability as I competed in all sorts and did well!

It was pretty cool but is probably not something I would pay myself for. That said I would pay for the lounge if I flew regularly. I know they can vary quite a bit but the lounge is worth it for a regular user I think.

Aer lingus rewards program is separate but if you log into Avios you can transfer your aer lingus avios to your BA account and vice versa.

I flew BA business class to Vegas last year for €1500 and got enough Avios for a one way trip to NY with Aer Lingus...Seems decent!

I've loads of useless bits and pieces of airmiles with different airlines. Other than using them to negotiate lounge access all I ever got was a couple of upgrades and one London flight.
They really only work if you pick an airline and stock to it... That I guess is why they are called loyalty programs!Turning millions into thousands

Better off with an American Express platinum, that gets you lounge access pretty much everywhere and all your spending generates points which can be transferred to most airlines rewards programme.Low fee Euro/UK money transfer, 1st transfer free through my referral

I've had it for a year, and just booked two flights to Bali with the points.
I was actually against CC for a long time as the idea of using credit all the time seemed dumb.

As for me, the usual mad scramble has my current tally at 4 out of 6 required tickets. It's a cliche but it genuinely gets more difficult each year.

Just wondering if it's the "done" thing seems there maybe a lot of people in bitcoin who are unfamiliar with their tax obligations.
