How long has this been going on?

How about Ticketmaster’s dynamic pricing?

Bobby King and Terry Evans did a great version on their Live and Let Live album.

Porto is steeper than both.

That knowledge will also ease the pain when we lose the Play-Off final on penalties, following an outrageous decision to disallow a perfectly good goal in extra-time.

I simultaneously am really keen for my team (Cov) to be promoted, knowing that we would be relegated after one humbling season and that the football will be far less entertaining than the Championship. This mental confusion is called cognitive polypahsia.

I’m ready with my response to a bill of 19.66: “shopping’s going home.”

I’ve had hayfever for years. I take non-prescription tablets Allevia during the pollen season. Really effective and no tiredness side-effects.

I just can’t take the series seriously now.

Please can you provide a link to the Pension Service contact form for use if I can’t get through on the phone? Many thanks for your excellent advice.

I’m disappointed that no-one pointed out that the Leicester defence could not “squirrel” the ball away because they are absolute Foxes.

Fair enough. That’s an important point. Have you read Dave Pegg’s autobiography? The printed version is a rollicking good read but somewhat lacking in refinement. My friend did a proofreading and editing job to produce the electronic version which, he tells me, is selling “steadily.”

If you want to check any facts, another friend has excellent links with Dave Pegg, in particular.

I’ve met all the current band. Genuinely good people.

A good friend of mine is helping to produce the festival. There was some “angst” about using the phrase “Looney Tunes.”

I deeply appreciate the huge commitment in your work. I hope the Fairport Convention story will be less traumatic to write and record.
