    Alan Peacock RIP

    RIP. An absolute gentleman who I met a few times away from football. He never mentioned he was an ex-footballer at any time while chatting to him. As mentioned on this thread, he always looked fit regardless of his age.

    Private Health Insurance

    He was a Sales person and had private health via the company with Aviva. They offered a price for people leaving the company private health scheme and either retiring or moving to another company. He thought about it but said it was too much then ended up paying 12K for the back operation.

    Private Health Insurance

    RIP Frankie Beverly

    Such sad news. RIP Frankie. I also saw Maze at the Hammersmith Odeon in the mid 80's. An absolute legend on the soul scene and part of my life since his Northern Soul days. Maze Live in New Orleans is still my favourite album ever.

    Cordless Lawn mowers

    Anybody got one? Are they any good? I have a medium sized garden and have used an old odd job man to cut my grass as I work away a lot. He has now decided to pack up and I am thinking that I should have a go at this, and even Mrs Ayresome could give it a go. Should I go with a cordless mower...

    Ticket Prices

    £192K per week. It does seem rather high. I am not condoning the price of the tickets, but rather providing the information he gave at the meeting. The only other thing I can think of is if he also included the Academy (4M) so if anybody was there can they confirm this please? The point of...

    Kitchens (again)

    Hello All, Thanks for all of the advice you gave me regarding kitchens. I was nearly decided until Mrs Ayresome got a tip off a friend of a friend, to try the Kitchen Surgeon (Stockton) who can fully install a new kitchen and design it if required. She wants to get a quote off them so I was...
