    TV Licensing intend prosecuting me for just owning TV sets

    Indeed, they have been in use and are also intended for use, but in both cases under a licence. One is destined for my mother's house when hers packs in (she doesn't have the storage). I have a car on my drive under SORN; I also intend using that in the future, but I don't see why I should have...

    I just qued up for 3 hours at ticket office

    I've just ploughed through the 50 posts that followed yours and I am quite astonished that not one of them has asked the glaringly obvious question, namely, how can you tell the length of the queue when the pic doesn't show its end?

    TV Licensing intend prosecuting me for just owning TV sets

    They are all CRT sets, which in my opinion give a higher definition than any flat screen set I have seen in a shop. Those just blur things like grass when the camera pans quickly because the processor just can't handle the increased calculations required. PCs can only receive signals directly...

    Hmmm......the contractor wasn't Buckingham Group by any chance, was it?

    TV Licensing intend prosecuting me for just owning TV sets

    You have underlined 'who intends to' but then go on to categorically state that I need a licence. Yes, I intend to use them in the future, perhaps if the Albion start appearing regularly on BBC/ITV. But in that case I would be getting a licence and therefore not be in contravention. I studied...

    Keeping it special : waiting for the Donny game

    And Withdean was all those years of self-abuse that preceeded the first fumble :)

    TV Licensing intend prosecuting me for just owning TV sets

    A couple of years ago I was spending so much time on the internet and watching TV that I really had to choose between the two. I chose the internet, and was quite surprised how little I missed TV after a while. Anyway, I was soon plagued with letters from TV Licensing which provided no prepaid...

    Keeping it special : waiting for the Donny game

    Shit, that's the trouble with these new stadia, they're never finished in time!

    Keeping it special : waiting for the Donny game

    I like that analogy, but I'll have to consult the Urban Dictionary: doxy to discover exactly what a 'doxy' is! I think I would have agreed with you had I not attended the first two games at Withdean. I found the atmosphere and occasion of the Forest opener as memorable as the 6-0 thrashing of...

    How do you pronounce Amex?

    Blimey, I didn't realise he was still alive. Must remember to put him on my celebrity death list.

    Body decomposes at deep end of pool while people swim above. For two days.

    What would increase its buoyancy? If the lungs are filled with water then surely that makes the body denser than water.

    BHA bid £3.5 million for Owen

    It would appear from this post that you are in no position to criticize people over capitalizations.

    Donny fan here

    I took a local girlfriend down there for the oft-postponed FA Cup replay with Peterborough in the 80s. We ordered the drinks then noticed a red telephone, illuminated batphone style, with a 'BRIGHTON GAY SWITCHBOARD' dymo label stuck on it!

    When did Grounds become Stadiums

    Any 'stadium' with separate stands is still a ground IMHO. So, Stoke's should be renamed The Britannia Ground.

    ***** VERY IMPORTANT WARNING: Adult content on NSC

    If somebody hijacked my clean thread in such a way I would expect those posts to be moved (i.e.deleted), and not my thread. We can't afford leniency in this respect; anybody jeopardising NSC's main revenue stream in this way deserves a lengthy ban for a first offence.
