    [Music] Albums 2024

    It's also made me listen to my back catalogue of the Cure - much of it on vinyl, which I've not listened to for quite a few years; simply reminded me of how good they were/are. It's really great that this has felt like a proper old-fashioned 'event' - like album releases used to be.

    [Misc] Are you pro or anti AI?

    However - quite a few scam calls I get are clearly automated, it could be that Daisy the AI granny is busy talking to a different AI scammer. The whole thing going on with no human involvement whatsoever!

    Thanks. Really unusual to find Wastwater so still so late in the day - these screes are in shadow for most of the time, only getting lit up in the mid-late afternoon, by which time the surface of lakes is usually disturbed by air and people. It was pretty wonderful to be there. This was just...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    Not sure what they are upset about. They seem to be complaining about things like him being incompetent for the job, a person of moral turpitude, has been under investigation for various offences, sexual misconduct and other ethical breaches. But given they have just supported and elected a...

    [Football] How much did you pay for your first game?

    Pretty sure that was the same for me - but my older cousin paid. I know that in 1978 it was 50p - because I used to wash my grandad's car in the morning for 50p, which got me into the ground. 1986 or 1987 - £72 in the North.

    [Politics] Russia invades Ukraine (24/02/2022)

    ie: follow the same course of action as Biden. I'm really not sure Trump can 'hand over' Ukraine anyway. Under Biden, USA are already producing more oil than ever before. And it increased under Biden at pretty much the same rate as it did under Trump (after the post covid dip). So, again -...

    [Albion] What is the BEST, CRAPPEST and OLDEST pieces of Brighton & Hove Albion merchandise that you still have in your possession?

    Oldest I have is the scarf my cousin bought me / gave me at my first game in September 1977. Still wear it to games when I can get to them.

    [Brighton] Help identifying type of manhole cover

    Now then - I once held a pub quiz that contained three questions about local manhole covers, and quite a few non-dull men (and non men) got them right!

    At the other end of the day, I only do sunrises in the winter - far too early in the summer. We have had some cracking red skies just before the sun appears this week - this is the railway bridge leading to our promenade.

    I think the other posters may have mistakenly taken this for a taking the piss type witty imaginative post.... But probably correct.

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    You mean he's an immigrant?? I didn't know that. How does Trump square that with his desire to keep America for Americans?? That will explain why Musk has to use a puppet in the White House - he presumably can't be president himself?
