UPMC Nowlan Park. Buy a programme. €4 instead of the €3 it has been at the other league games (@Malarkey doesnt come cheap). Then get to my seat and the announcer spends about 5 minutes reading out the changes to the Kilkenny line out. I think about 8 changes in all. 6, 7 and 9 as listed on the programme aren’t in the match day panel at all and three fellas who aren’t listed in the match day panel and whose names I can’t catch (such is the din from the three year old behind me) get their numbers.
There’s no rule that you’ve to have the right team for the programme. It’s whatever is sent in on the Thursday morning to Croke Park. Panels for programmes are normally requested the Monday before. Only a couple of years ago you didn’t need to submit your panel until an hour before hand for a league game. However I don’t think that’s the case now. @Plastic_Paddy may be able to clarify
League is different to championship. You can put the teamsheet in for league 40 minutes before the match however you’d be asked to send in for programme on Wednesday/Thursday it means nothing. Championship you have to send in by 9am Thursday to Croke park and that 26 can’t change. You can change who starts.
Gas bill usually about 100 odd. Get bill in Jan for 700. Question it, am told previous bills based on estimates. This bill based on actual read so paying for shortfall of previous underestimates. Grudibgly accept.
Get bill in today for 840. What in the living fuck? Question. Oh, cos bill average adjusted based on last one and this new one now based on estimates, it’s 840.
Quarrel saying still doesn’t add up. He eventually concedes and said maybe it’s a leak
Rings network Ireland, finds leak.
So, original jump wasn’t based on under reads and averaging out but a leak that started 4 months ago. Tough titty basically, expected to wear bill of 800 on top of last bill of 700 which stung like a cunt…
