    Evening all planned out now !

    I'm just about to go out and water everything in the orchard. When that's done I'll cook a nice piece of Aussie striploin rare, then fry mushrooms in the juice and butter. All washed down with "Soft and Smooth" Aussie Cabernet Merlot 14% and 346 baht from Lotus's...

    Then it is gonna be a night of drinking and watching the footie coz I bought 3 bottles!!

    @Stillearly must be praying for me to drink at least one bottle before Fantasy Deadline time !!!

    I've got back home , been working on my Dads garden ... removing all the rotten and storm damaged fencing and tackling the brambles and overgrown lawn ...😅

    first decent dry , non windy days we've had , since I got home ...

    I haven't had time to tinker ...👍

    FA Cup Saturday was brilliant as a kid, would start about 8.00 and continue until the 3.00 kick off and a few hours after.

    Now it’s meaningless to a lot of clubs.

    They would string it out though .. FA cup Question of Sport , FA cup pot black , etc etc ... but the build up was great ... it changed when they moved to a 17:30 KO ...

    For the smaller teams getting a draw away at a big club then having a money spinning replay was always part of the glamour of the cup.

    The away draw would always earn them a lot more , I believe gate receipts are split 50/50 .. 🤷‍♂️

  4. KYC , know your client , making sure you're not a politically exposed person , most companies do this at the account set up stage  ...

    although I don't remember similar questions at Wise .. 🤷‍♂️

    I take it your wife hasn't received the funds yet if they are talking about cancelling the contract ... just answer the questions and it will probably go through okay

    I know it was only a hotel through Booking.com that you got money back from but it gives me more confidence to use then for flights if the price is right.

    The flights were through a local travel agent , they gave us three options

    1 keep the flights

    2 book a new destination ( no charges )

    3 full refund 

    very happy with the service, I have used them many times in the past , because they provide direct flights , so no need to go via U.K.

  6. Just received an email regarding my trip to Croatia in June , they have had to change Airports ... from Split to Zadar ... a quick google tells me the costs for taxi will go from €35 to €140 ish each way...plus obviously sat in the car a lot longer ....so I have taken the option for a full refund for the flights and have cancelled the hotel ( Booking.com )  ... no loss of £ , but disappointed ☹️

    I keep them for the work head to head KO rounds, where there's cash as well as bragging!

    I'm 4th in that so far, no way i'm not making the KO rounds.

    I'm currently 85 points ahead in my money league , no knockout in that , top three get cash ,  £110 for winner , £60 and £50 for 2nd and 3rd  ..
