And get paid obscene amounts of money too.

It's not a constant hour and a half is it, they get a rest and a drink half way.

money aside, if that happened in any other job I'd expect the management to give them a serious talking to..
Glad Hodgson has spilled the beans .. maybe the fans can wise up to the fact that their hard earned cash gets spent on these prima donnas!

These prima donnas need to see how real sportsmen (and women) earn their keep

±1 on insurance companies. Tried to get a quote for an area I'm thinking of moving to, no sorry you'll have to ring us back when you move there. Hmm.Ok can I have a figure for how much I'd get back/owe if I cancel today? No we can't do that either. Screw you 1st central insurance.

Dust or more specifically dust up my nose.

Spring clean or deep clean of the bedroom has left me with an ichy nose & sneezing

Hospital departments that give us two days notice of a consultation appointment for our daughter, who now has to be retrieved from a school field trip in North Wales. My wife has to take tomorrow off with no notice, drive to Wales via the kennels to drop off the dog as I'm away with work, pick up said munchkin, drive all the way back, take Thursday off, and drive to Stoke Mandeville for an 11 o'clock appointment. On top of that the surgeon is on call for emergencies and her op date in two weeks has a 50:50 chance of being postponed.
