    Scally

    Just as with political assertions, you make no attempt to explain - just persist with attempted put-downs.:wagging: All that was asked was: "If you are tax expert, please enlighten us to the extent of Entrepreneur's Relief." (Which was in response to your unnecessary put-down of TG.) Thanks to...

    Scally

    "nothing to do with" sound a bit hostile (unnecessarily ? :rolleyes:) According to this definition of "entrepreneur".... "One who takes the initiative to create a product or establish a business for profit; generally, whoever undertakes on his own account an enterprise in which others are...

    Car insurance ng obviously

    Probably because your mate has "any driver" insurance. A brief read of car insurance in other countries can seem like it is the vehicle insured - but that is because that is compulsory (i.e. insuring the vehicle not the person). Reading on, it seems that most countries approach "risk" in a...

    Car insurance ng obviously

    Assuming you clicked through to Tesco via TCB, you must have created an Account. In a few weeks, if Cash Back has been recorded, you should get an email. Regardless, in about a month, login and check the Dashboard. If it has worked (and is has for me about 10 times) a balance should show. You...

    Car insurance ng obviously

    Try registering at Top Cash Back. Last week I got an email about £33 cash back from an Insurance I did. Over the years, I've had several. TCB have a comparison site. Usually results are close to or equal to one or more other comparison sites. Just don't go for a slightly higher quote and...

    Personally I think the second highlighted theme is the root of the problem (not sure our forwards have had many chances). Then, more like no-one was shooting enough (until recently). Periods of possession have been predominantly knocking the ball in an arc - either amongst defenders - or...

    Brad’s interview

    Team spirit was what kept Gills in the second tier for longer than expected. So we know that individual skill isn't everything in football. It isn't obvious that the current squad is totalling lacking - but at times some of them seem either to be coasting - or strangers. Analytics may help...

    Electioneering has started

    And what are Labour's "policies" on anything substantial ? Is Labour's claim to "positivity" .... "We can't be worse than the other lot" ?

    Retirement n/g

    Genuine "free market capitalists" believe in a level playing field... ...which we don't have. Too many large Corporates constantly seek to monopolise / reduce competition - and too many current "rules" let them do that.e.g. - exclusivity deals (that shaft farmers, football supporters), - sole...

    24/25 Season Tickets

    Is it also the case that, for every one seat between the rails, two people can stand ? The rails should make terrace "surges" such as at Hillsborough almost impossible.

    Points prediction for top 7? Ever the optimist

    My first run of guessing results puts 3 teams on 71 points, at 7th 8th and 9th. Crawley & Walsall - on GD, too close to call - then Gills... (...unless we suddenly get three 5-0 wins !) There are too many "what if" games to list them all. But other than Gills' games, Crawley v Barrow and...

    Joe Comper

    The best bosses trust their staff. They may ask to be kept informed, mostly after the event - leaving just a handful of big decisions for prior approval. Occasionally people make a sub-optimal decision - but that isn't the same as making a wrong decision. Removing fear from subordinates can be...

    Retirement n/g

    Have you looked at Investment Trusts ? They provide ready-made portfolio of shares. e.g. ones that track the FTSE reasonably well - or a market sector (e.g. Renewable Energy, Asia-Pacific) Most pay dividends - some better than interest rates. Like shares, prices can go down as well as up...

    New England shirt N/G

    Is the £125 one made of silk ? (Lovely and cool in warm weather) From another thread, I'm not the only one unwilling to pay anything like those amounts for sweaty polyester. How much do they cost to make ? £5 ???
