    [Albion] Do people still hitch hike ?

    I didn't pass my driving test until my late 20's, so did a load of hitching before that. I think I probably did over 100 000 miles in a period of 13-14 years, mainly in GB and Ireland. For most of this time I lived in Mid-Wales so Gwylan is right when he says it was pretty much treated as public...

    [Albion] Tottenham Game True Story

    My first ever game, aged seven v Rotherham 70/71 season. We left assuming a 0-1 defeat, not knowing we'd scored in the first five minutes. No screens the size of Belgium to help us then though.

    [Misc] Beware of telephone scam - 'BT Openreach'

    I always play dumb when I get any of these "out of the blue" calls. When they ask me to use the mouse, I tell them I don't have any pets. They usually hang up after this.

    [Misc] Churchill

    I couldn't disagree that he was a great war leader. However, as a domestic politician he was wrong in the majority of cases. He lost the 1945 election by a landslide because he expected the returning forces to carry on as before, whereas Labour promised full employment and the introduction of...

    [Football] Giggs new Wales manager

    I would have preferred Mark Hughes and was hoping that Stoke had sacked him a few weeks earlier than they did. That said, like Giggs, he did not have any managerial experience prior to being appointed, and he didn't do a bad job, getting us to a world cup play-off.

    Wasn't always this way. I remember being taken by my dad to the Theatre Royal to see Goldilocks and the Three Bears which featured Larry Grayson before he had his tv break. I remember him walking to the front of the stage dressed in a red jacket, top hat and carrying a whip. Years later, and...

    Wales v Rep of Ireland

    I notice that England are 25/1 to win the World Cup. For those of you that don't understand betting, that means if you put £10 on you will lose £10.

    Guess we'll have to agree to disagree on this one.

    The ticket priority system is not quite fair

    As someone also living a fair way from Brighton (Cardiff) I can sympathise with your plight. I am gutted but not surprised that the Swansea game has sold out and will mean that I'll have to go in the home end but, having experienced this at the Hereford game, and occasionally at Ninian Park, I'm...

    Isn't it time Corbyn & his Henchmen were called to account ?

    You may be a football genius but you're certainly not a political one. How do we give the elite/establishment a kick. I know, lets employ half of Goldman Sachs.

    Middle Farm Cider/Perry barn.

    Den Gwatkin is a mate of mine. He's been Champion Cider Maker of Britain twice, suggest you try his Yarlington Mill cider which is the variety that won it for him both times. His Blakeney red is a good medium-sweet perry, for something a little drier, the Thorn perry is worth a try

    Middle Farm Cider/Perry barn.

    I've been there a couple of times, good range but bloody expensive. The average strength for a real cider is about 7.5% ABV. Apparently it's known by many locals as Middle Class Farm.

    [Albion] Things which are not currently criminal offences but which absolutely should be

    People who use management speak. Lets run it up the flagpole and see if it salutes. Only if I can punch you in the face and see if it bleeds.
