    [Politics] The Labour Government

    Unfreeze fuel duty. It's been a huge subsidy for gas guzzlers mainly owned by rich people, which oil companies and fuel retailers (including the big supermarkets) have used to maximise profits. It has been encouraging more driving thereby maintaining surface transport's share of carbon emissions.

    [Football] Everton away - things to do / avoid

    I'd definitely like to return (maybe Liverpool away) and take in the Maritime museum and other parts of the centre. I managed to get a full refund for the return from Brighton to Sheffield for late / cancelled trains. I was very lucky at 3 Bridges as there was a coach only stopping at Haywards...

    [Football] Everton away - things to do / avoid

    Thanks everyone for your tips. We had to stand all the way from Sheffield to Manchester due to a cancelled train leading to overcrowding, which was a pain. The views out the window were magnificent though. I was surprised at how many Irish megapubs there are in Liverpool city centre. We walked...

    [Misc] Car Insurance and Parking Madness

    I dunno about this. Until residents complain about on street parking the Council may not do anything. The domino effect pushing cheapskate cars, vans and commercial vehicles further out seems to have reached the suburbs where this can be absorbed, apart from Surrenden (whose residents rejected...

    Easy. Putney. Hammersmith is nice as well, especially as it's pedestrians only at the moment.

    [Albion] Fulham Away

    Yes. I've sacrificed my chance to go there this season as it would be Fulham 4 weekends in a row and I want to save some of the 'away day marriage bank credits' to meet my daughter north of the M25.

    [Football] Everton away - things to do / avoid

    Thanks. KO is 1730, so I'm assuming final whistle around 1930 and looking at the 2019 back to Sheffield (MsBC is at University there). Do you reckon 50 minutes is enough to get back to Lime St?

    [Football] Everton away - things to do / avoid

    I'm going with MsBC to see Fulham hopefully make it 4 away wins in a row (after having previously never beaten them at Goodison Park) on Saturday. It's a 5.30 ko (boo) although that gives us a few hours in downtown Liverpool to sightsee and drink a bit. Thinking of Baltic Quarter, Albert Dock...
