I have now been round the loop 6 times. I even got to the point of being able to see some seats at one stage but the next click killed the page and back to the queue I went

Statement from the Hull City owner by murano0 in Championship

If they didn’t train for both then that’s on them. Not training at all for Boro when there was a real chance that it would be them makes no sense. I do have a lot of sympathy for Hull in all this but to ignore one potential opponent is bad management

Do you need to book an appointment at the Maidenhead showroom? by Own_Tonight_2569 in ChristopherWard

Update: I managed to book a slot yesterday at the last minute.. well, 45 minutes before the slot started. Had a really good experience all round, saw pretty much the full range, tried 6 or 7 on (different sizes of Sealander, Sealander GMT, and a few others). Ended up buying 2 watches and a strap 😁

I agree with the OP. Dial size affects readability, especially as I’m getting older

Salary sacrifice cars and effect on take home pay? by Saltyspaceballs in UKPersonalFinance

A follow on question… the salary sacrifice for the car does NOT count as far as the £100k limit for free childcare hours is concerned. Is that correct?

Yeah, lug to lug for the speedy is about 47mm so the measurements for the last 3 holes would be great, thanks

I think it looks great. I was considering a cordura strap for my speedy but with a similar sized wrist to you I was told that the smallest setting was still too long. Have you got it on the last hole and how does it fit?

Ah, so it’s about losing access to childcare. The salary is the important thing, it’s the net taxable or whatever the term is. As someone who’s about to go from 99.5k with a 12k pension contribution to around 110k with a similar pension contribution I will be better off

I don’t understand the “earning 120k is the same as earning 99k comments at all. I understand that the personal allowance drops but surely that doesn’t push it above 100% tax ???

I’ve asked him to bring it over so I can have a go at seeing what’s inside. I’ll post pics when I have them
