If so he knows which side his bread is buttered. Poole-Wilson had nothing to answer because the accusations had nothing to do with her. It was August-Hanson who was involved. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizo Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Covenants mean fuck all. It's a ruse so lawyers can spend endless days in court pontificating about law and other utter legal nonsense whereby the layman will always lose in legal parlance and lose in the pocket. I know.

It's a ruse so lawyers can spend endless days in court pontificating about law and other utter legal nonsense whereby the layman will always lose in legal parlance and lose in the pocket. I know. Covenants mean a lot. They’re fairly straightforward, most of the time. Problem is they tend to be used in neighbour disputes. Every advocate dreads a neighbour dispute. Their quoted rate doubles, they try and dissuade, client knows best, matter of principle, ignores advice ( which is inevitably to settle as it’ll cost a fortune and even if you win the result won’t get what you want ) and ploughs on, and on. The lawyers only end up in court because the clients, on both sides want their day(s) in court. They want to tell the judge in the greatest detail about the hell their neighbour has made of their lives, with the 3cm gutter overhang, the noise, the overhanging tree branch, the misplaced wall, drain - you name it.

This case has no relevance to the brewery covenants. 2. However, the brewery anti competition restrictive covenants have been cancelled by Act of Tynwald. Keep up at the back. Have the existing covenants been revoked? or are they just no longer to impose such covenants on future sales? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barlow Posted April 3 Author Share Posted April 3 Double-barrelled names were favoured by the so-called upper classes to display the breeding of respective families and to preserve a family name. It became even more pretentious when middle-class families found there was no reason not to adopt the convention of their supposed superiors. These days amongst some communities where marriage is rare but childbirth high a stab is taken at the name of the assumed father and joined in with the mother's moniker. It gives a superficial air of selected and thoughtful breeding where in fact it is much the opposite. But it works. Ian Duncan Smith wouldn't be nuthin' if he was plain Ian Smith. Ditto Andrew Lloyd Webber The allusion can be easily destroyed by putting the word 'bleedin' or 'fuckin' between the two names. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
