I've always had serious anxiety issues and these would often lead to panic attacks. The worst part about it is that anything could trigger this for me, and I would live my life expecting something bad to happen. Have been in the same boat fella, and that 'on edge' feeling with no rhyme or reason is...

Thanks mate. Would love to pick your brains more on this. Never quite had the guts to take such entrepreneurial risks myself. Thinking I might need to at some point...

Great news Jim

At the time I was importing cans of EV olive oil and flogging them around restaurants/etc There's still money to be made shifting stuff backwards and forwards,especially if you cater for the respective ex pat communities. My mate married a someone from Greece. Her father owns an olive grove near Th...

I really like Lyons too.I used to travel UK - Borgo Val de Taro return every two weeks via the Frejus... That's far more interesting than battling the A12 every week. What was your trade/gig/job Tenners? Sounds like they were good times. Let's face it, France is the best country. Think I'm with you...

For the record, in 2007, under the Icelandic ownership of Gudmundsson and Magnusson - some three years before the arrival of GSB - WHUFC's Deloitte Rich List ranking was 19th (8th in England). In 2024, WHUFC's Deloitte ranking was 18th - and still 8th in England*. I was commenting on the methodolog...

Alas, there are more Catholic vibes at West Ham than Buddhist. No zen feeling here - just a creepy bloke at the top and a baffled flock.

But our average league placing in the premier league era is 13th. Does that imply we are less boom and bust than some clubs? Presumably we could just avoid relegation every year and move up the all time rankings if different teams around us yo yo. I think it is an interesting but misguided methodol...

Probably get laughed at for this but I'm not bothered about us getting in the CL at all. Oh I definitely get this view, but if we ever did get into the CL, I'd love it. 6000+ Hammers travelling to the likes of the Bernabeu? Magic. I was wetting myself when we beat Sevilla; if we ever got a shot at ...

Busting a gut. Love it.

I'm taking quotes on a single storey side extension. Always keen to give work to fellow Hammers, so DM me if interested.

Cheers.
