    [Help] Warm coat recommendations

    I brought a Bosch heated jacket from a local electrical wholesaler. Watrproof, warm without the heating elements on and fantastic with them on. Three heat settings, with elemnts in the back and arms, runs off a Bosch power tool battery . I got it trade but had to buy a charger and the battery to...

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Crystal Palace *** Official Match Thread ***

    I do believe that the skies over Croydon are red tonight with the ceremonial burning of caravans and anything else handy. Well, they were always bad losers...

    [Football] Liverpool Home Game

    That's ridiculous. He's a fan of a different club living in a different country. By all means contribute if you wish, but the idea of a collection at Albion home games leaves me cold. Where do you stop? There are so many deserving causes you could have a collection every week. and still not help...

    [Albion] Hughton owned by Puel

    It’s easy to criticise the manager, but yesterday was a dismal display in the second half. Yeah, Peel out thought CH but why oh why didn’t he make his substitutions earlier? And why make Murray play on when obviously in some discomfort? That isn’t really the issue though. Newcastle showed CH...

    [Football] Stockdale to Sarfend .. (how the mighty fall)..

    Maybe he'll feel more comfortable at Wycombe knowing that Adam El Abd has finally washed up there, doing a pretty decent job as captain and coming up to his 500th senior game.

    [Travel] Speed camera switch on

    Maybe I'm wrong, but I simply regard the whole thing as a nonsense. The so-called 'Safety Partnerships' are unelected and responsible to no-one. The worst organisation of all is something called Brake, which has charitable status and sticks its oar whenever possible. It's worth remembering that...

    [Misc] Pest Control - looking for advice/recommendations

    Amazon have a battery powered trap that, baited with peanut butter, lures rodents inside. In reaching towards the bait they step onto two metal plates delivering an electric shock that kills 'em. There's a river behind my pub which attracts them (and the streets of High Wycombe are full of...

    [Albion] Jose Mourinho planning SHOCK move for Lewis Dunk...

    Oh for goodness sake. He's just signed a five year contract, he's got a splendid house out at Hurstpierpoint and a young family. Why on earth would he want to uproot the family to go and play for manure's reserves? That's how it would end up. He doesn't strike me as the type to move for cash...

    [Albion] Boxing Day v Arsenal, trains.

    That's money we gave them in the first place. And their charges aren't cheap.

    Memories of the Goldstone

    Arriving for an evening game. My mum lived in Avondale Road so plenty of easy parking, then a walk down to the Goldstone with the lights shining out over Old Shoreham Road. Yeah the Amex is amazing but somehow I've never recaptured the 'buzz' I got walking down to the old ground.

    [Albion] Club "investigating" dedicated train service to Manchester

    Yeah, but from memory it was an ordinary service simply full of Albion fans. As I remember it, we drank the bar completely dry en route to London.

    [Brighton] Petition to help disabled people have access to the beach

    I think that there are two issues here that no-one has mentioned. Firstly its my experience of disabled people that they don't want their difficulties highlighted, so any engineering solution - eg ramps on the beach etc - would need to be of a kind that anyone could use. And secondly, given the...

    [Help] Unfair dismissal in first week

    So would I. In my years running a big pub with I'd thought that I'd heard almost every excuse going. Without wishing to add insult to injury if I'd received that e-mail I too would have been furious that someone having just started work with me was now having a day off for his sister in law's...

    [Albion] Flasks banned from the Amex

    Because my pub attracts many ‘away’ fans en route to Wycombe Wanderers we lost more glasses than we could afford, (they cost around £1.28 + VAT) so instead of single use ‘glasses’ I brought 1,000 polycarbonate ones. A year on, I have none of these left. I don’t think a deposit (say £1) would...

    [Albion] ** BHA v Manchester Utd ** - Premier League SCORE PREDICTOR - Now in its 8th SEASON !!

    2-2... and even that only if CH has spent a miserable Sunday watching a DVD of yesterday. Nothing seemed to be right or go right. I doubt that TB will be happy with spending all that money to see the new players sitting on the bench whilst the team underperformed.

    [Albion] Thank God for that

    He's done exactly that before. I've never been convinced that there's a 'plan B'.....

    [NSC] Photoshopped / Digitally altered PCN to fraudulently obtain funds by A Borough of London

    Maybe I've misunderstood, but you've got the fine cancelled, so why waste your time pursuing it? Life's too short to worry about issues like this when (to my way of thinking at least) someone has clearly made a mistake or tried to cover one up. Move on...
