As good as the first one, or not.

There's some making the money then. Are these the ones that can only play for a short time before having to time out.
When you see it in print it makes you wonder, who's worth that much. Whatever the sport.

And what's wrong with the "Yorkshire version"?

Dry, and sunny here. For now!

Yorkshire ? nothin, Aldi was nearer..
I forgot supermarket ten mins walk away was the cheapest lately :laugh:

6mm of early since dawn rain but sunnier now..

Housework got done (some),
I smell of Eau de Harpic......

40 mill biggest contract, 9 years and I suppose opt outs in there..
360 million guaranteed..
they give out deals like this knowing the last few years might be poor production..
but this lot make some amount of moolah, half a billion dollars income.....
worth ? 7.1 billion...
bought for 8.8 MILLION in 1973..
some deal, eh?
they'll more likely be more and they'll use their own version of ahem....Hollywood accounting....

Goes without saying you'll walk to an Aldi before you walk to Yorkshire.
From up there at least!

No rain for two days now. Get to five days and there'll be talks abaht hosepipe bans, water shortages...

Clean round the bend?

Just think what you could buy on one weeks earnings. Yer own McD's for a year for starters. Dessert would have to wait a month though.

Do they leave the field of play as fallen gladiators or as a footballer who's stubbed his toe?
Fair amount to spend on one person back then. Wonder who they had helping them invest(spending) it.
Creative accounting. For mere mortals like us, it'd be illegal.

Someone in this house could spend it in six months......
I'd stick the heating up by 2c :laugh:
The buying price was a syndicate but one started buying the rest out so worked out well for his family
Betty be back!

Think we're ahead of you on rainfall for the day, in the last hour alone.

6.1 mm for the day....

Mentioning no names I notice. Wonder why that might be...
You'd be sweating in no time. Or will you leave the windows open.
And his bank balance!

Easily beat that in that half hour. My cup, four inches tall and just under two inches in diameter, was filled within five minutes.

I'm sure you'd manage if you were to try. With two of you, you'd only have half to spend.

Much the same here.
My cup doth not runneth over.
Empty in fact.

Surely a bit of give and take is all that's required.
I'd like a pint glass that would runneth over with a choice of 'fillings' :cuppa:
Owdo
Healthy?
Never understood how going to bed earlier could affect any of those three.

Healthy? I wish..
I'm due a letter for my yearly 'MOT'...
that'll be mornings work for someone..

Yer'd be spilling yer drink, that'd be wasteful. Why not get a second glass that would never be empty?

Best o'luck on the MOT front.
Spare parts are harder come by for us.
