    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Wolverhampton Wanderers *** Official Match Thread ***

    The whole defensive unit given a rest, Ferdi getting minutes. Ferguson had a very good first half which is enormously encouraging and unfortunate not to get a goal. Baleba and Adingra both looking superb. As much as the second half was pretty poor, Wolves were gash and we gifted them both the...

    [Music] Iconic 80’s anthems. Best openings.

    One that doesn't give any inkling about what's coming next, but when you know it, you'll always know it.

    [Food] How fussy are you with food ?

    Was so fussy as a kid, but kinda grew out of it in my teens, got to loving Italian food, which in the late 80s was a big change in diet round my way. I'd give most things a go these days, only two things I've been unable to eat and both of those were in China. A "thousand year old" egg...

    [Travel] No Clapham junction-Brighton direct trains anymore ....

    Yeah I tried to do it last year and was stunned that there wasn't a direct service. Supposedly to enhance the reliability of the rest of the railway? I'm a railway man and don't get it.

    [Misc] Retirement

    I enjoy reading this thread. I've got about 7 or 8 years to go before I retire (all things being equal I'll be 56) and am already looking forward to it! 😁

    [News] James Earl Jones RIP

    Loved his cameo in The Big Bang Theory with Sheldon, looked like he had so much fun with it 😁

    [Misc] Plantar Fasciitis...

    Daily leg stretches, the spiky ball rolling, calf rolling, all help sort it out, but it's not going to be a quick thing. I'm three weeks into dealing with acute Achilles tendonopathy and the reckon it'll be another three before it's back to normal. Honestly, visit a physio if you can afford it...

    [Football] Ireland v England official match thread

    But it was job done no? The Irish were never coming back into that game, they were pretty woeful. Another game in three days time, beginning of the season in a game already won, why risk an injury? As Pavilionaire said, I don't begrudge them it.

    [Misc] What is your favourite aircraft

    The Mosquito is a stunning aircraft in look and design. I like the Hawker Typhoon for its gutteral fierceness, the Lockheed Constellation is just beautiful. I think modern day-wide the A350K is utterly stunning, every time I'm down at Heathrow I'll always take a picture of it, even if I've seen...

    Tallinn , Estonia

    I use to love going to Grandma's Place in the cellars near to the Parliament area. Having to knock on the door with the frying pan to gain entry, good wholesome Estonian food, cheap and chips, good atmosphere, good times! Damn, just seen it's permanently closed. That's sad ☹️

    [Humour] Jason Manford at The Forge

    He usually does a week at the Leicester Square Theatre every November and always go and see him, thinks he's superb, very intelligent comedian. I think he's actually lived in Kent for the past 20-30 years now. Saw Milton Jones last night for the first time. Be meaning to see him for ages, but...

    [TV] The X-Files

    The Tooms episode scared the crap out of me when I first saw it, but like others I can't remember individual episodes and faded from watching it when it got too much on the alien side of things. Like Supernatural, I just enjoyed the spooky stories rather than the underlying themes. Weirdly had...

    [Humour] Jason Manford at The Forge

    'Work in progress' nights are a great way of seeing comedians you'd normally be paying megabucks to see. Funnily enough Manford is one I've yet to see.

    [Misc] Books you gave up on

    Can't get on with any Dickens or Thomas Hardy, so so dull. Actually really enjoyed War and Peace once I got my head around all the names and LotR is an all time favourite 😊 Stopped reading the Dune books after book 3 I think and also the Enders Game series after book 4. Jonathan Strange and...

    [Misc] Books you gave up on

    I bloody love fantasy/sci-fi and currently on book 7 of the Malazan World books, but like you, got to book 7 of WoT and just got bored of it.

    [Albion] Arsenal fans

    It would be superb if they choked against Spurs, just to be able to wind them up some more, but Spurs will inevitably be very Spursy and lose through some comedy gaffe I expect.

    Got a gooner mate who still won't let it go, even texted this morning about it. Naturally he just got a Maupay crying gif in reply 😁

    [Misc] The Most You've Paid For An Event

    Paid about £350 each for a five course meal at a Michelin star restaurant in Knightsbridge, included all the pre meal cocktails and wine pairings, port afterwards. Even got to go back and meet the Chef and see the kitchen. Was a brilliant night out, we were both suited and booted, felt fantastic.

    [Misc] Official NSC Dog Bore Thread

    Sums it up really well. Before I had a dog you'd go round people's houses and see photos all over the place and it didn't really register. Now that I've had Rosie I truly understand why people prefer a picture/portrait of them on the wall that other family 😂
