    Gunners

    Even that isn't quite all it seems - they have made serious money from selling the Highbury flats. Property deals, coupled with the Emirates income, has been what has really made the difference. Arsenal also have the highest priced season ticket, and when VAT went to 20% they had some match...

    Gunners

    Good ole Arsene is possibly even more stubborn than the purple-nosed shop steward turned capitalist at Man U. It's the same every season, yet he refuses to go into the transfer market.

    Driving License Renewal - Reminder D798

    Does anyone know when I can expect to receive this? My photocard license expires in December this year. However, as I live in the states, it takes a while for the redirection to get to me. I was wondering how much notice I'll get on this one? The DVLA website isn't exactly clear on this...

    champions league

    I reckon spurs will nick it 1-0. Crouch will score late in the game. Gattuso will go crazy. I'm so sure of that you should put money on it!

    Use By Date?

    I really can't think of a good reason why it should. It will evaporate, giving you some vapours, which will lead to some minisculely higher additive concentrations. I'm assuming you've kept a cap on it, so the vapour-liquid equilibrium will have been reached pretty quickly, and that will have...

    Car dealer query.

    I reckon there are some real cons out there in the nearly new market. A new car has VAT, a used one doesn't. You can break a new car price down to Total price = price *1.2. If you do the sums on the advertised nearly new and the advertised new prices, you can see that they are often trying to...

    New owner advise TT 3.2 DSG

    Launch control! From standing still, put in sport mode & turn off traction control. Swap your feet over so that you are using your left foot for the brake. With the brake on, floor it. The system will set you up for a perfect start. With right foot still planted, lift you left foot. Wait...
