all a bit bizarre Really only makes sense if we have a serious bite on selling one of our other strikers/wingers. Just wonder is there is any serious interest in Kone for example?
Implied belief that the seasons course and overall outcome has been largely decided by first game of the season.
Bizarre unexpected injury to one of our players (probably involving seagull insertion or something similar)
Early identification of candidate for seasons "boo boy" candidate for whom every game will be an unending litany of disaster according to a very small but vociferous group of posters.
Just looking at us at 50-1 with Paddy Power.... Given pre-season we have had, improved conditioning and relative weakness of the league this year, that looks a very generous price. Whisper it, but I think we might be quite useful this season.
Appreciate he has previously been quite prolific and has a bit about him. However, 28 year old striker with poor injury record and barely played last season. Not sure that really fits the model.
Given the source is not exactly a good one (and ignores the other strikers we currently have on the books) I think best to mark this one as speculative at best. Looks more like an agent pushing something to get his now unemployed client a new contract.
I remember the agony that I had before I have my gall bladder removed over 10 years ago. Never felt anything like before or since. Turned out to be 2.5cm gall stone and infected gall bladder that was contracting on it constantly.
I'll be honest and say it was only time I had bad experience with the NHS as I was referred to a consultant who didn't feel to be taking it seriously and was initially quite dismissive. I was lucky that I spoke to a member of nursing staff whilst having bloods done, she immediately said that her hubby had what sounded like identical symptoms and it was gall stones. Consultant decided that whatever I had, it probably wasnt gallstones and not serious, reluctantly he send me for a scan at my insistence. That showed the gallstone, but they weren't in a rush to see me to do anything about it. I decided enough was enough and used my BUPA for first time ever in 30 odd years (very much a backup), saw a consultant two days later, rescanned and consultant wanted to operate pretty much immediately when he saw the results as it was likely to go bad very quickly at this point.
Long story short all done within the week, key hole surgery gall bladder ad stone removed (gall bladder was septic, but fortunately not cancerous). Sore and tired for a week or so, but few small stiches healed up quickly and, touch wood, no real problems since. I do now watch my diet far more than I did, avoiding tomatoes, really spicey food and fatty/deep fried stuff as I know it will feel uncomfortable and keep away from sugary carbonated drinks, tend to find that a bit acidy. None of those things have been particularly difficult, so feel I have been very lucky. But my takeaway is that if you dont feel well and your not happy with what you are being told, do question it.
I am pleased for Palace, if nothing else for showing up the blue scum who spent many multiples of what Palace did, went through more managers and won feck all without qualifying for Europe.
Also think they did us a fair deal on the Eze transfer and developed him well. So nod to them for that too.
Otherwise hate them on principle as used to live near the ground in the 1980's and was a crap place
Potentially a touch of the Madsens perhaps. Finally getting permanent move to us this year, picked up an injury not trying to get back into team after previously being more favoured. Perhaps being asked to do a different role to what he was previously doing and still trying to adapt to get it right.
Basically don't right him off yet, he is a very good player and was previously in the Japan squad and we know is well liked. I think would also do better playing with Burrel and Kone which is probably what he was originally brought in to do.
I like him, there is a good player in there (we know others were after him when we got him) and he brings something different. I wonder though if the emergence of Smyth (who was apparently also shit less than 6 months ago lest we forget!) and soon to be returning Chair may mean he is no longer required.
Moved into new build over 12 years that has no gas on the development at all. We all have air source electric heat pumps either Mitsubishi or Daikin. Honestly its been fine. As good as any Gas Central Heating system0I have had. In and of itself is has been relatively efficient overall and pretty damn reliable after first year or two of tweaks - mainly from quality of original install rather than the actual system.
What has made the difference though is having solar and a 10 KW battery fitted just over 2 years ago. It is the package of all three that massively reduces expenditure and improves efficiency. Last year more than 40% of my total electrical use came from Solar and Battery and within that 60% of grid use, it includes topping up the battery every evening when rate is about 8.5p per KWH. Has more than halved my electricity bill in real terms before I sell any excess back to the grid (which will just about cover the daily standing charge through the summer. I added an electric car to the mix as well and that I charge about every 7 days at home on the overnight cheap rate - basically equivalent to filling up to a full tank for less than £4 each time.
So my experience is that each element in isolation will be useful, but it is the combination of heat pump, solar and battery (with car charger if that is an option) that makes the difference.
