Monday 7th August AM, Heathrow T3 arrivals, what I assume was a Dad wearing his ITFC shirt, meeting his son with a big emotional hug. Gave me a lump in the throat!
And then, the other day, a chap cutting his hedge in Bermuda. I was a bit disappointed by this one as I thought I was the only Blue in the village!

In Feb’14 I did literally bump into Clooney, Murray, Damon, Goodman and Bonnevile as they left a NYC hotel backdoor after a Monuments Men promo. I apologised to all 5 at once but figured that was cheating.
Agree with all the above. Difficult to separate Downes or Wolffenden for MoM. Sears looked a few lbs of the pace but despite plenty of endeavour not a lot of end product. Harrison has pace to burn and works hard. Very exciting.
Consider Korean Air. One of the shorter/faster routes, good value, great service, adequate seat pitch in economy (I’m 6’5” and it was fine) and a stopover in the amazing city of Seoul. Of the 4x I’ve travelled to Brisbane, Korean was the best. Their 777-300 in economy is a 3-3-3 config rather than 3-4-3 in pretty much every other carrier. Makes a big difference.
This is disgraceful. Looking at the sentencing guidelines ( https://www.sentencingcouncil.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/Fraud_bribery_and_money_ ) I cannot for the life of me figure out how they got to 13 weeks for the 'fraud'. Nothing was premeditated, I'm struggling to see who even suffered a loss (the actual runner had stopped running and didn't make it to the finish), it was a spur of the moment decision. At worst it should have been a community order. Very harsh.
The primary goal of IF shouldn't be weight loss. There are a lot of additional benefits, of which losing weight will be a by-product. When possible I try to eat between 12:00 and 18:00. After an extended period, I noticed that my reliance on food diminished significantly and I could do a 24 hour fast with ease. This article looks at role of autophagy in IF.
I'd never seen a minute of it until last night. All I knew is that it had won a BAFTA for best reality series and everyone was wittering on about it last year.
It was pretty much as expected, attractive 20 somethings being gorgeous and vacuous in the sun while claiming they had made a connection with whomever they had 'coupled up' with 10 minutes before.
The thing that disturbed me ever so slightly was the format, whereby there was one more guy than the girls and after everyone had partnered off he got to choose which girl he was going to partner with, a process in which the girl had no say whatsoever and the poor chap who got the elbow would have to look on like some emasculated cuckold. Given they have to sleep in the same bed it was all very odd given that she might not like this chap at all!
Dr Forman, a bioscience specialist, said: "Its jaw line suggests it is like a cetacean whale or a dolphin." - err that tail don't look like a dolphin or a whale!
So they are trying discipline your friend for Gross Misconduct for flirting! Unless there was more to it than that (such as he exposed himself) or some other misdemeanour then highly unlikely that it constitutes gross misconduct. Has there been an investigation, statements taken, procedures followed? If not then it doesn't bode well for the employer (and they probably know it).
Claims for damages in discrimination cases are unlimited. Whilst a SAR might help him now, after Friday it would have more teeth as a breach would be entirely more costly for them under GDPR so they may be more diligent and provide more information. He could also potentially widen the scope of the search to include emails etc. In any event, if he takes them to a tribunal the requirement for them to disclosure documents will likely be more far-reaching but could be useful to combine with a SAR to spot any gaps in correspondence etc (i.e. documentation they have sought to withhold). If made any specific requests to HR or management in relation to his transition then those email threads would be very interesting.
In 15/16 average tribunal award for sexual orientation, claims were £20k and £85k for sexual discrimination, well above his £9k. Or, go for the quiet life and take a holiday as others have suggested. It all depends how likely he will be to get another job too? It's an important consideration.
I'm pretty sure he had more money than he would ever need after his 500th game. It never stopped him from giving everything in the next 500. Do you really believe the likes of Lampard are motivated by money at this stage of their careers?
You choose to ignore that I said there are plenty of ex-players who have made a hash of it. What I did say is that a lack of experience does not necessarily mean a lack of managerial ability and provided some examples to back this up, which was the only point I was attempting to make.
As for your examples, Shearer had 8 games in charge of Newcastle and publically expressed he wouldn't have done it for any other club. I'm pretty sure there were plenty courting Ince after his first spell at MK Dons. As for Neville, I reckon with the benefit of hindsight he would accept that the Valencia job was a poor choice as a first managerial posting. I also think spending your whole career under one manager (especially one like Fergie) is a disadvantage when moving into management.
Sorry to startle you with facts but Lampard has his UEFA A badge and is studying for his Pro. As asked above, does lack of experience automatically equal lack of ability or lack of success? The examples above would suggest not.
