No, just they are offering a choice rather than having a standard set time. Standard enough practice...set a service level precedent and then make the customer realise that service of this nature has a price. That being said they are more often ahead of the delivery time predicted.

Audi A3 over the One Series every time...not my assessment but a rep who worked for L'Oreal and covered around 35k a year...she asked for her old (115kmls) Audi back after the first week, then again after three months and eventually managed to swap with another rep who had an older A3. Both were 2lt diesels. Specifically she disliked the seating position, the visibility (she is only 5ft tall in fairness) and felt that the handling was 'flakey' compared with the Audi...economy wasn't an issue as it was fully funded. She's quite an aggressive driver who has driven several hundred thousand miles....hope this helps.

A serious transfer window review thread...
dronskisaint replied to Unbelievable Jeff's topic in The Saints
Generally happy - I'm most pleased by the players we managed to keep. Signing Luke Shaw on a long contract was probably the best bit of business we did. The players we have brought in have got both pedigree and potential and are pretty much in the age range and contract length to allow the team to develop as a unit...one of the stated intentions. It speaks volumes for the foresight in L1 and the Championship that so many of our players from that era plus those coming through from the Academy are part of our PL squad. I'd like to think that similar judgement has been applied to take us on over the next three to four years...time will tell rather than instant judgements - this also applies to the players (all still pretty young) who were signed last year. Lovren has added instant class and stability, Wanyama has had two good games out of three and I really haven't seen enough of Osvaldo to comment....other than you don't tend to get to be Italy's centre-forward by being inept. We're in a good place and planning, shaping to get better - because I'm always aware that the best can always be bettered - B+ -
Capital One Cup: Bristol City Ticket Details Announced
dronskisaint replied to Saint-Armstrong's topic in The Saints
Have you looked at Arsenal season ticket prices!!? I'd want a limo to take me there too... £18 isn't out of the way for a Premier team with all the associated expenses and it's for a game against a relatively local team. I'd be happier if we could get a third more people in for a third less on the gate money (£12 for the mathematically challenged) but I'm not party to the prediction information that the club have...much as I hated the Norwich tickets not getting to general sale I understood the explanation. -
Transfer deadline day thread (Summer 2013)
dronskisaint replied to Ivan Katalinic's 'tache's topic in The Saints
Is that a question for the future? All skate trolls' sons will wear our shirts BS (blatant skate) could never be described as a supporter! -
It's obvious you weren't there troll, how was the Chesterfield game?
-
Big thank you for that - it's working out well! I'm a happy man - would hate to have missed out on this
-
Anyone got a spare ticket? Can meet at gate and pay + drinks ...dronskiuk@yahoo.com...would be very grateful! Thanks:)
-
Still looking ...rosamar not able to get ticket to Norwich and I'm up here...please nicely anyone?
-
You have mail!
-
You have a pm - Only just got to computer as I've been travelling all day but if there's a way to still arrange these I only need an hour's notice as I live near to Norwich. Desperate to see this one, I've not missed one for years and if two tickets or even one are available from anyone please pm me? My message phone number is 075211 119194....happy to contribute to drinks, fares, car repair funds!
-
I'm still looking...missed the lashmar one but hopefully now Gas is sorted there will be another? Thanks for any information...beers bought for any info leading to a ticket!
-
I would...they shouldn't even be around to compete in it! Would they put the receipts in a pot for the creditors they shafted? Would they ******
-
Can I insert another plea for anyone with either one or two tickets that they could sell me? Desperate to go and ideally take my lad who has never seen Saints lose...I live close to Norwich and would be happy to pay towards anyone's travelling costs or beer costs...Thanks for reading!

Thought he was lucky not to have got a card ...a bleeding snout might be getting off lightly. Nasty niggling fouls all through..

Has there been a better team to support over the last 5 years?
dronskisaint replied to lickierambert's topic in The Saints
No for me, obviously, but there's never been a better team to support over the 50+ years I've been doing it and it's a good question.. I, given the timespan above, have experienced the highs and lows. 1976 will always (I suspect) be a peak but I stood on the edge of the pitch at the Burnley game which confirmed our drop to L1 and was as miserable as I can remember in my footballing life...we were, of course also experiencing the financial implosion and most of me just wanted to just have a club to support but it seemed such a come down. I never expected to enjoy L1 and them down the road (hi skatechez) were stealing their way to a position that I'd never known in my lifetime..two leagues above us! And then it changed..ML, NC, Pards, Ricky, Fonte, Adam developing, JPT, promotions NA... and it's been a brilliant ride -I guess Swansea must feel something similar given their financial woes but apart from the Leighton James era they were never really an established top flight club in the same way as we were through most of the latter part of the last century and I can't really take the oligarch-owned, JCL-attracting teams mentioned as being similar. Newport's story is great but again, not having come from as high a falling position as us. I don't consider my supporting of Saints as an option...it's in my DNA, my blood and I see everything from that perspective and I'm just very grateful to have been part of this and even more so to those who have made it possible...a big thank you to Mr Liebherr for listening to Nicola Cortese and putting his money and faith behind the 'project' - Thanks for the ride, it continues to be barely believable for a fan of five decades! -
Don't listen to Talksport but Fivelive had John Hollins talking about Lukaka! :-)
