Had a lad who plays for Peterborough as well. I am not a good player at all and neither are the team so no idea how it happened. That little weasel-y looking fella who looks like a smackhead? Marcus Maddison? Quote

Brad Inman, he looked class as well. Sammy showed glimpses of why he is a pro footballer but wasn't really putting 100% in. Quote

Yeah, mate gotta do one of those... but I think it'll take a pretty long time to figure all of the pros and cons. I'm lucky in that I've got a few months to make the decision and I don't have to do it right away. But it's fairly fucking complicated because either I'll be asking my girlfriend to move with me (and that's a big ask) or we'll end up breaking up - and that's a bit shit. I also like my job here and I like living here, it's like very fucking pleasant. But I also do miss being like... around family and friends I've known my whole life. Although if I'm living in London, I don't think I'd be seeing them that much anyways. I also don't like London that much. It's a pretty tough call and I don't really want to make it.... although it looks like I just rambled some pros and cons just there 6 hours ago, Stan said: didn't even know you weren't in England . Where are you living now? San Diego, CA - it's pretty fantastic in all honesty. Quote
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted June 13, 2017 Subscriber Posted June 13, 2017 Is it a take it or leave it opportunity? Like will you get another chance if you put it off another year? Quote

It's tough to say - I've been given a job offer (to a job I forgot I applied and interviewed to, months ago) and it's pretty decent. And I told them I'd need them time to think about it because I'd have to figure out a whole lot of shite, so they've given me about 3 months (90 days) - which I think indicates they want me. I don't know if in the future they'd want to give me the same offer I'd turned down. I'm very conflicted. As is my girlfriend, although she seems willing to move. But would she need a visa or any of that shite? Probably, right? That would be my assumption at least. Does that mean I'd have to propose sooner rather than later to get her a visa? I was planning on proposing sometime soon, but maybe now is the time to do it? There's also this thing I've found, which also has me not too happy about the idea of living in London: Consumer Prices in London are 8.22% higher than in San Diego, CA Consumer Prices Including Rent in London are 11.29% higher than in San Diego, CA Rent Prices in London are 15.44% higher than in San Diego, CA Restaurant Prices in London are 15.36% higher than in San Diego, CA Groceries Prices in London are 20.71% lower than in San Diego, CA Local Purchasing Power in London is 37.00% lower than in San Diego, CA https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/compare_cities.jsp?country1=United+States&country2=United+Kingdom&city1=San+Diego%2C+CA&city2=London&tracking=getDispatchComparison But for as much as I like San Diego... it would be nice to be significantly closer to home instead of the ridiculous distance I'm at right now. Lol I hope no IT people can check wtf I'm doing at work though posting about this. Although it would make my choice a lot easier if I lost my job here Quote

I've got a chipped tooth from when I was about 10 playing football with my brother. Went to tackle him and as he fell his boot/studs made contact with my mouth and one of my teeth took the brunt Right front tooth, top. Took 1/3 of it off, it happened years ago in a skating accident but the filling or whatever it was snapped off last night. Edited June 13, 2017 by Spike Quote
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted June 13, 2017 Subscriber Posted June 13, 2017 Just smashed cleaning the rest of my flat today ready to move out next month. Done a massive clear out too so I reckon half the work is done for moving out. Pretty satisfying feeling. Quote

True Blue Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Is it only me, or is the new member growth slowed down a bit? Quote
DeadLinesman Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 3 minutes ago, True Blue said: Is it only me, or is the new member growth slowed down a bit? Well everyone from TFF moved over now and the forum is still very much in its infancy. We continue to move slowly up the google search engine, but it's still learning who we are as a website. Quote
Storts Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 People don't join forums anymore. Too many members spoil them too imo as it becomes impersonal. I like it as it is Quote
Devil-Dick Willie Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 We do need traffic to pay for it though. Nothing is free. Quote

Like baldy said the forum is on diapers, any new members who have joined are more than likely acquaintances of people from here. The forum isn't going to attract new members on it's own till at the very least next year. Quote
Smiley Culture Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 No internet on the work computers (which limits the amount of work anyone can do to nothing) but we're still sat here. Quote

It's fine, but gone are the days of people actively searching out football forums imo. Quote
Berserker Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Yo @Cannabis how's the Mrs doing?, been kinda worried since she hasn't texted back in a while.. 2 Quote
