More quotes by Geoff Capes
I've coached people who were ranked number one in the country but didn't get any support while other areas of sport got medium to full funding, even though the individuals had no hope of getting on to the rostrum.
Geoff Capes
I prefer to give money to the person who's provided the good service. But I never tip at hotels, I think they overcharge anyway. But anything which is value for money will get my vote.
Geoff Capes
I don't spend and save whenever I have spare cash. I dislike people who boast about money.
Geoff Capes

Geoff Capes
I like paper statements rather than relying on computers. I feel more in control if my account details and transactions are broken down on paper.
Geoff Capes
