    [Misc] People and this funny business

    Another thing to add, the Science Dept at Mrs B's school was wiped out before Xmas due to one inept Teacher and the NHS Covid App, which Education Bods were against Teachers using, for the following reason which happened: Teacher was experiencing symptoms but still came to work because he...

    [Misc] People and this funny business

    Mrs B is classed as a Key Worker as she looks after the Laboratories in a School and sets up practical experiments. As she is a Key Worker she has been advised that her and other Support Staff have to attend the school premises (and mix!) and "work" their core hours even though they have diddly...

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Arsenal *** Official Match Thread ***

    Wasn't there the same outcry and pant pissing with a similar team selection away at Spuds - we didn't do too bad in that match?

    [Albion] West Ham United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Couple of observations: Two of the biggest pet hates on NSC: Maupay is rubbish and why persist with two players at a corner = our two goals!! An analogy: If Brighton were the best looking woman in a nightclub, awesome to look at and watch but get her back home and she'd disappoint you...

    [Technology] How BIG is yours?

    Just went through this and we have a small room and we had a 50in Plasma and sat about 2.5m away from it. We've changed the room config and have now got a 75inch on one of the walls and bought a corner sofa (oohh I appear to be a Chav!!) to free up space with a viewing distance of 4m. It all...

    [Football] Amazon Prime football coverage

    Probably need to add (and forgive me as it's not the intent to "willy wave") but if you are watching an Amazon live stream on a phone, laptop or a smaller older TV, then the quality won't be so obvious. However on a new 75inch UHD HDR TV it becomes much more obvious compared to Sky coverage...

    [Football] Amazon Prime football coverage

    I'm new to this Amazon stuff but as I posted above there appears to be an issue with Live Streaming. If you go on AVForums which is full of nerds, they are confirming same and suggest it's the frame rate that is the major issue and one that I would concur. If you pause then it's a decent...

    [Football] Amazon Prime football coverage

    I've been using the Amazon TV app and now can use the Sky Q App both Live and catching up on the recordings - quality on both I'd say was "ok" but not near the quality UHD of Sky's own channels. However if I watch something that isn't a live stream on Amazon (and Netflix) both the picture and...

    [Albion] Simplistically, what do you think is our biggest problem?

    Played Golf with a Leeds fan this morning (not an arrogant one) and his first question when I owned up to being a Brighton fan was "can we sign Ben White" please. Discussed Ben at some length and his view was that Bielsa realised that the holding midfield role just wasn't for him. I find it...

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Liverpool *** Official Match Thread ***

    sorry that's the point, VAR can't review the White incident but can the penalty - there can be no complaints about it being a pen, if the laws are consistent within the game :)

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Liverpool *** Official Match Thread ***

    Our Penalty: Ben White Yellow Card in open play: White gets ball, kicks Liverpool player = free kick and yellow Danny Welbeck in penalty area: Welbeck gets ball, gets kicked by Liverpool player = penalty Whether you agree or not as to whether it was a pen - the laws have to be applied...

    [TV] Who knows about tellyboxes ?

    Bought a new TV a couple of months ago - our viewing distance is 4.1m and we decided to just go big and got a 75inch - its awesome! Another vote for Richer Sounds and don't forget that the picture on the TV will be dependent on the quality of the "Signal" pumped into it. An SD channel and it...

    [Music] Online Bass Guitar Lessons for an absolute beginner

    Mrs B's Mum died last year and we found a violin in her loft - the seed to learn a musical instrument was sown from there. Alas the Violin was crap! Fast Forward, since Covid our Saturday nights revolve around bottles of wine and Youtube listening to music (big telly and 5.1 AV setup) and we've...

    [Music] Online Bass Guitar Lessons for an absolute beginner

    Mrs B is an absolute beginner like me! We've mucked about on Youtube but have found you do the absolute beginner lesson and then you seen to run before you can walk - obviously there are structured websites it looks like the free stuff is lesson one, then ten, then 20 but you have to pay for...

    [Music] Online Bass Guitar Lessons for an absolute beginner

    Long story short, last Saturday night when drunk, my Mrs and I bought a Bass Guitar for me and an Acoustic Guitar for her (lockdown project, do something different to challenge yourself blah blah, I'm 52 FFS!) Anyway I can't do any person to person lessons due to Covid and the Interweb appears...

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs West Bromwich Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    I get the Ben White experiment away or against a top 6 side but playing 4 CB's leaves us devoid of pace and creativity. Why did we go to a back 4 of Veltman, Webster, Burn & White to leave a midfield of Lamptey, Gross and Bissouma - totally lost our shape and all confidence. Playing 3 centre...

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Manchester City *** Official Match Thread ***

    Bit of perspective - in their last 4 games they've put 4 past Liverpool and 5 past Newcastle and ourselves. We bring on Stephens for Propper and Burn for Gross etc. they bring on Silva for De Bruyne and Fernandinho for Rodri and I could go on. Yeah we were a bit toothless, but they were...
