Well done to those who can and do!

So you've never been on a holiday???

Don't think so.

Yes ridiculous, but Roy’s was the first time I thought it truly was getting out of hand.

😂 It is mad what players earn really. I don’t actually think about it anymore. It really bothered me when Ravanelli signed for Boro and was getting £20k a week. I was like WTAF - £1m a year ? The Roy Keane contact always sticks out for me, think it was around £50k a week, I was absolutely gob smack...

Eddie the Eagle it would seem.

I treated myself to a PS5 the other day out of the overtime money I’ve earnt the last few months. Over a monkey to get the bugger. It came with Hogwarts Legacy, which seems decent enough from what I’ve played so far. Will look to get Gran Turismo 7 asap too. Its on sale in the PS store at the moment.

Going to grab myself the PS portal when they come back in stock, looks really good and not a bad price at £199.

Everton, hope they go down the Conts.

So could this be that our owners done as a favour by sticking to the rules?

We lost a cat around 8 years ago, which was a very hard time.

After about 16 months we got a Jack Russel from a local rescue centre. Wow, what a dog she is, she is like having a child and we love it.

I can't bear the thought of being without her, so massive condolence to you Old Fart.
