    [Travel] Supermarket fuel.

    I use the Esso station on the Lewes to Uckfield road. Always cheap and get 36 mpg in my car. Applegreen in Uckfield state 'Low fuel prices, always' but are more expensive and I would get less mpg from their fuel. Whilst in Eastbourne last week I found a garage next to the NCP Trinity Place...

    [NSC] NSC - The Podcast

    All of this just scares me. But on the good side, will it replace Jeremy Vine, or was he replaced years ago, we just didn't notice?

    [Albion] Taking a motorcycle to the Amex on Sunday: Where do I leave a helmet?

    There was a very long queue to collect bags Saturday. Yes, it is easier to go by bike but I'd chain your helmet to the bike. What's the chances of a thief with bolt cutters coming along? Mmm, maybe put your helmet in the bag drop.

    [Football] New format Champions League today

    We hate the Champions League. It's only for those big clubs to make more money. Too many games, players will get tired. "And there we have it, victory at Spurs place Brighton & Hove Albion 4th in the league" "We're all going on a European tour"

    [Sussex] Name a famous Sussex person.

    The Bachelors. Who?, I hear you ask Dec Cluskey, John Stokes and the late Con Cluskey. I was support disco at a wedding in Rodmell back around 2002. Initial thoughts were 'oh my god' but they put on a show that had the entire floor full. Great guys and really friendly. They done the wedding as a...

    [Misc] Prostate Cancer

    Just thought I'd jump in here. Last Tuesday, 10th Sept, I went in for my anual check up. Doctor recommended a prostate blood test. I'm 68 yo. Bang, results were back within a day and it's looking bad. PSA 24.84. It should be 0 to 4. Within one week I'd had a scan and this morning those results...

    [Albion] Sussex By The Sea Poll

    But surely if GOSBTS is playing right up to KO, if timed perfectly, the fans carry on singing the song well past KO, followed by ALBION as usual. It beats silence.

    [Albion] Sussex By The Sea Poll

    Think I mentioned this elsewhere, but I take full responsibility for the removal of Hey Jude. At a fan meeting in the summer with PBOBE I asked the stupidest question of the night, "Why do we continue playing Hey Jude before KO when we are the only club who don't sing it but all the away fans...

    [Albion] Catering

    East Upper, south kiosk. Arrived at 2:22 to see of the 8 tills only 5 open. Queues as usual from the kiosk to the back wall, blocking the pathway for people getting through. Got to the front and they had hardly anything left. Asked for a new burger and the lad said they were just preping some...

    [Albion] Sussex By The Sea Poll

    Us oldies remember when Mike Bamber returned from a trip to the USA and dropped GOSBTS for Rocky. Lasted one game I think.

    [Albion] Sussex By The Sea Poll

    I guess the club are trying to please everyone. Hey Jude during the 'fan zone', when 3000 Ipswich fans gave it loud and 2 home fans hummed the tune proved that song had to go. Most clubs, go to Liverpool, Forest etc, play their big theme in the seconds before KO so why not GOSBTS? Give it a few...

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Ipswich Town *** Official Match Thread ***

    Is this the first time I've gone Who? to the ref, assistants, 4th official, and assistant VAR? Probably seen them before but don't remember them.

    [Politics] Would YOU be happy to pay more income tax so OAPs could keep their fuel payments?

    I'm 68 but in all honesty don't need the WFA. I still pay tax and I'm very miffed that I pay tax on my pension. But on the other hand, my Mum is 90 and could really do with the WFA. But she gets pension credit and so gets the extra as well. If you think it's bad now, wait until the Autumn Budget.

    My bad. Amex is only a few minutes further away than the station. No major roads, just cut through Halland Road.

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Ipswich Town *** Official Match Thread ***

    Never knew you could park there. 30 minute walk to the ground, presume you know the train doesn't stop at Moulscoomb Station. Anyway, also my first EPL game of the season. Seen more friendly and cup games (3) than league games. Bad fan.

    [Albion] Fulham away to be moved

    Oooh. I'm still watching for the 7th & 14th games in readyness to book my Xmas trip to Cologne. Hopfully a match on the 4th wont affect any game on the 7th.

    [Music] What's the best song you have heard today? Share it here.

    Don't just skip this, read it first. Lucy the Pianist won a competion a couple of years ago. She was 13 and blind. Fast forward and recently Debbie Wiseman was on Jeremy Vine and knocked up a few bars of music on a piano. Later that tune was finished and has been recorded by now 15 yo Lucy. She...
