Sounds like you don`t concentrate a lot !!

I presume you meant you "sold" it for £500 as if you bought it he could hardly have sold it !

As John says - what we do with something we`ve bought is our affair - viz Antiques Roadshow " I got it for 50p at a car boot sale" when the valuer says £25000 as thet did recently with a Rene Lalique vase !!!

I remember the time - many years ago - I was woken with a scream from the kitchen on the lines of " come and see this". I rushed downstairs with my usual lack of night attire ( ??? ) to witness a sparrowhawk standing on a pigeon about 12 feet from the kitchen window and methodically tearing feathers off.I grabbed my tripod and ESII , focussed quickly , pressed the shutter and got 1 shot before the film ran out....................grabbed the ES and repeated the actions - one shot left in that one as well !!!!! I still have the two rather dodgy shots somewhere to this day - the bird finished its preparations,grabbed the snack and flew down the garden at about 18" above the lawn,never to be seen again - maybe put off by my fleshy appearance !

Sorry John - I thougt football and respect for the dead were above politics.

Poppies have absolutely nothing to do with football - however to be TOLD in no uncertain terms that individuals CANNOT show respect and support on such a sensitive occasion by some pompous inflated and allegedly corrupt leader of an overblown and self important organisation beggars belief and as proven has pricked the conscience of the majority of the country.
I`m saddened that you can equate Poppies with Red Noses ( an admirable venture however ).Since the football kit of an English player is his working uniform it should be treated no differently than that of a police officer,a politician or any other person who wishes to show respect.
Shame the FA are as spineless as the rest of our so called leaders and bend the knee at the first sign of a conflict - may we give thanks that they were not at Passchendale or Ypres or running the War Office in 1914.

Joclick/Florence Nightingale plays Matt Monroe cds every opportunity she gets - probably the most underrated singer we ever had ( even Frank Sinatra rated him )
