    [Albion] What time did you get home from Wembley yesterday ?

    Back home in South Yorkshire by midnight. Biggest delay being the wait to get into Wembley Park underground. Once there train full of celebrating southern Mancs to cope with. Finally back to the car and Sally Satnav guided me through back streets to M 25 and ,M1 .

    [Misc] Own Teeth? . . . Dentures? . . . Implants?

    I used the dear old internet. My search criteria was, 'cheap implants abroad. I then sorted by price and reviews. Finally, I checked out travel costs and accommodation. This led me to Turkey and India. The shock was how advanced they were. Made dentists here look third world. I would look into...

    [Misc] Own Teeth? . . . Dentures? . . . Implants?

    I can only tell you my experience when aged 65 I had lost various teeth over the years and the rest had fillings of some sort. I was driven to do something as I could not chew my food. So as I was quoted £30,000 here to fix the lot I had to look abroad. I found a decent price in India. I had...

    [Misc] Interesting or Famous Ancestors

    Have recently looked into the ancestry of both myself and the misses. Which has led my son to be a descendant of William 1st Battle of Hastings and all that before leading on to Simon De Montfort Battle of Lewes on both sides. Then straying from Sussex on the wife's side with her part of the...

    [Albion] Introduction of charges for season ticket cards

    Now getting on the bus is a fair comparison. I have a bus pass that is the same as my season ticket card. They both work the same. Touch and go. Fast modern and smart. No problem. Cards rule phones hmmmm!

    [Politics] Chinese Agent in Parliament

    My niece works in the houses of Parliament lobbying on behalf of German company DHL . Loads going on so trying to influence British politics is likely widespread not just limited to China.

    [Albion] Forest Green (a)

    Like others who were there, I felt it was an enjoyable evening of footie. Love watching all things Albion. Had to sit in the disabled section (took wife) in the home end/side (no disabled section in away end) and next to the Forest Green manager who was quite vocal with his instructions though...

    Setting off soon from Donny to watch the lads tonight. Hope it does not get called off this time. Stuck in the home end as taking the wife is in a wheelchair and they don't cater for that in the away end.

    [Finance] Are IFA’s a waste of money for most people ?

    I tested the use of a financial advisor v myself (amateur) when winning a substantial amount in a court case. I set the challenge over five years. Splitting the money evenly between both. Result amateur more than doubled the money . Financial advisor increased the amount by 70 percent. Having...

    [Finance] I'm never going to buy my own house am I?

    I live up north and I have to say you should not dismiss it as an option. Plenty of Seagull supporters too. Life, if you have a job, is really very good baring lockdown. Property ranges from £50,000 for a terrace house to millions if you are lucky enough to have the money.

    [Help] Wood Burners - price and installation advice

    As someone who nearly died from that old thing called flu. I remain vulnerable because of that and age. Let me be clear log burners in my area are plentiful and it can be difficult to breathe particularly during the winter. This is not just some fancy notion. It is a real and present danger...

    [News] Margaret Thatcher Statue

    Actually, her actions killed my Brighton and Hove Albion loving mother. Due to NHS cuts at the time by her and her cronies my mother had to wait for urgent surgery for two years. Two years of suffering that is etched into my very soul. I will never forget or forgive. Many more suffered and so I...

    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    There are a number of us in Doncaster. Never forget the F.A cup train back north last year. Loads of seagull fans outnumbering the Man City lot. We got off at Doncaster amongst 40-50 others. A Man City fan come up to me mouth wide open in the disbelief there were so many of us oop north. The...

    [Albion] Possible return of fans to the Amex (incorporating the Q and A forum on 17th August)

    Taking into account how difficult all this is. Worried by 'Fans will automatically be entered into EVERY match ballot, and each match will be subject to a fresh ballot (eg – if you are successful in one, you are NOT ruled out of the next).' So one person who is lucky in the ballot could go to...

    [Technology] Hearing Aids

    Stick with NHS ones . They are no doubt digital. Private ones tend to be in the ear rather than behind the ear creating many issues with functionality , wax etc. My son is profoundly deaf so has a cochlear implant and that comes with all the extas if you are that keen. But not sure you would...

    [Politics] Scotland / England Border

    As I live in Doncaster I am wondering whether I get a vote in any Scottish independence referendum? Doncaster is still, in accordance with the Treaty of Durham, part of Scotland.

    [Politics] How is Boris doing?

    I am not a fan of Corbyn I just agree with him on a number of issues even I sometimes can disagree but it is most certainly not lazy to take the trouble to observe the media across the nation and indeed the globe in order to get a more balanced view rather rely on our unbalanced media.
