Wanderer Mansion

You are perfectly right there Cate. Some years ago I met a goalkeeper from a fairly lowly Enghlish Soccer team in a social situation. At the time he was about 30 and therefore getting towards the end of his career and never likely to play for a big club but he was still paid twice as much in a week as I was in a month! He talked about going to work when he didn't really know what work was. For him it was 2 maybe 3 hours training a day plus possibly 2 matches a week lasting 90 minutes each time. I don't mind that as long as he realises that it is the fans that pay his wages through the extortionate ticket prices, but he just thought anybody who paid to watch his team were nuts. As for loving his sport - no he didn't anymore it was a just a job. I think that is so sad.
You know Wanderer, we could get all down about this, but there will always be people like your friend Seb Coe ~ they are the people that will keep the spirit alive.


I must go now. Thank you for the nice chat, good luck with getting your work done.

:kiss:

You are right of course but even Seb Coe made a lot of money from his sport and even became a Lord as a result of it!

Take a care Cate, have a good day. :kiss:
 
Thank you Jones - no harm done. Please ask Cook not do anything hasty with the maids.

Of course not Madam, perhaps I could help you. Would you like a cup of tea?


Only if you have one with me
I would love a cup of tea Jones;)

You work yourself too hard, and I'm sure Sir Wanderer wouldn't mind.

Hi Sapphy I don't think Jones should do that actually.

That's all right Sapphy, it is his job to look after people and he does it very well.

Good to see you again :kiss:

Hi lovely. I'm fine thanks. I'm gradually getting there and am almost prepared for going to London tomorrow. I keep getting distracted by the Olympics though. The good old BBC showed highlights of the womens beach volleyball this morning. I think something like that should only be shown late at night!:kiss:

LOL I watched that last night - what a great partnership those two have. I think that the men's beach volleyball should have the same TV time and less clothing - why do THEY were shirts?????:kiss:

Glad to hear you find the men's volleyball as "interesting" as I find the womens. You question about shirts, I wonder the same about the women!:)
