My football career was wrecked (at the age of 28) by a combination of Chondromalacia Patellae (arthritis underneath the kneecap) and short sightedness

Does anyone (an insider?) know if the ‘rumour’ is true, that when we get promoted to the PL the players wages ‘contractually’ double and when we get relegated from the PL the players wages are ‘contractually’ halved?

What is the series of events (to be done by the phoneless person) if your smartphone is lost or stolen?

1. Contact police (using someone else’s phone)
2. Contact your network provider (using someone else’s phone)
3. Contact your bank (using someone else’s phone)
4. Anything else?

5. Then what?

Does anyone else keep a spare smartphone (mine is an ‘old’ iPhone) at home? I keep (and use) my online banking app on it. I have to update it (from iCloud) every 2-3 weeks which isn’t a problem. I don’t keep my banking app on my ‘main’ phone because of the hassle involved if I lose it. Does anyone k...

To win the fifth set in normal tennis, you need 24 points. Plus a few points in the games you lose, of course - say 32 points. You're only saving about a third of the set, and you're likely to lose a lot of the excitement. Remember table tennis reduced their games from 21 points to 11 because they ...

Some very close and exciting matches so far, well worth watching.
I still feel that 2 sets are too few and 5 sets are too many - why not a minimum of 3 sets and a maximum of 4 sets. If it’s 2 sets all then (instead of a fifth set) play first to 20 points tiebreak.

It was/is a very flat area of town being the flood plane for the river Calder which made it perfect for a horse racing track, an athletics track (Athletic street), a cricket ground and ultimately a football ground/stadium. ...

Thanks all .... very helpful. Sounds as though the Church Lane route might be a bit iffy .Where are they sending the Todmorden to Hebden traffic ? I'll give it plenty of time ..just in case .

Tod to Hebden is via Littleborough than back via the A58 then the B road to Mytholmroyd (I think)

I’ve sent an email to Burnley MP Oliver Ryan asking him to visit this run down area of Burnley. Let’s hope he can ‘bang a few heads together’ at local and county council level and make this area much more pleasant for visitors to the town.

The under 12’s football team 1967 - unbeaten all season. What a wonderful year that was!

Mala591

Enjoy playing there about 4 times a year but it seems to be getting quieter each time. Admittedly the course is a little bit ‘rough around the edges’ which adds to the challenge (a bit of an understatement) and the third green is in a real mess and imo needs completely replacing. It just feels that ...

Straight out of the pit, down to the miners for a pre-match 'bene-n-hot', then over to the Turf to fire the Clarets to a Division One title 1959-60.

Pie and peas for tea, Sunday day of rest and back at it on Monday - the Burnley way.

Don’t forget a couple of fags at half time!

Surely the coal mine thing was a bit of hyperbole and not to be taken seriously.

They came out of the Bee Hole pit head straight onto the pitch. It must have saved loads of money in transport costs!

It's not long ago that Toyota unveiled an internal combustion engine that ran on water - separated the hydrogen and oxygen. What happened to that?

It took more energy to split the hydrogen and oxygen atoms apart than the energy produced by burning the hydrogen for fuel (I think).

Can anyone recommend a conveyancing solicitor in the Burnley area who is very experienced, very intelligent, likes talking to her/his clients and will answer the telephone when the problem is described as ‘very urgent’.

What kerfuffle (in setting up a new smartphone) has to gone through when your smartphone is lost or stolen?

I predict that Todmorden will evolve into ‘The new Hebden Bridge’ over the next 10 years. Great train links to Leeds and Manchester, a pleasant town centre with an increasing number of interesting private shops/businesses, a very good Wetherspoons pub, a great canal walk (Rochdale canal) to Hebden B...

Chase is by far the best bank I have been with.

What is the current interest rate for a ‘standard/normal/everyday’ Chase savings account?

Thanks

Mala591

Yes, I do have an online current account (via a smartphone app) and it’s VERY convenient to use but there are so many horror stories about accounts being hacked that I’m seriously considering going back to a non-online account however inconvenient it might be.

After doing (a significant amount of) further research I think I need a cavity tray retro-fitting to my very wet west facing wall.
