    [TV] The Traitors - BBC

    I can't see Jaz or Zack being up for banishment - they seem a bit clued up. It was Paul who was highlighting Jaz and I think that will act in Jaz's favour. Murder, yes; banishment, no. I think Ross has a target on his back though.

    [TV] The Traitors - BBC

    But is it in their best interest? Once it's down to about 10 contestants, if the traitors all agree on one person to banish, they can pretty much ensure that they have it won. Of course, they'd have to share the pot but if I were in their position, I'd happily accept £35k or £55k rather than...

    [Football] Should NSC start its own football club?

    We need a bridge club too. We can go round the table as north stand, east stand etc

    [Albion] Our lord Pascal gross

    I keep trying to do something with Bach's Grosser Herr, o starker Konig. I thought of Herrlich Gross, o starker Konig (Wonderful Gross, o powerful king) but can't think of the next line.

    [Other Sport] JPR Williams - RIP

    Really shocked to see this. He seemed indestructible - he was still playing club rugby in his 50s. What a player - absolute flair. He made modern full-back play, turning it into a glamour position. I shook his hand once, in the bogs at the Millennium Stadium - there was a crowd around him...

    [Politics] Corbyn Party?

    I'm not sure that this matters. In 1979, Callaghan's personal ratings were well above Thatcher but that didn't make any difference to the result of the election.

    [Albion] Pascal Groß just getting the train home

    I didn't know German for stag do; I looked it up. It's Junggessellenabschied. Imagine saying that after a few sherbets

    [Politics] Corbyn Party?

    There's also the Socialist Party, formerly Militant, formed when they were kicked out of Labour. They still stand in elections under the name of TUSC.

    [Albion] Sorry Lawro your time is up…..

    I've still never seen anyone surpass Lawro. The youngsters may know him as a rather dour pundit but he was absolute class as a player. I also wonder if we have a player who may be better but I think it will be Buonanotte - a young kid, with plenty of time to mature. It's early days of course...

    [Food] Favourite/ least favourite tv/celeb Chef ?

    'Nduja is not difficult to find. all the big supermarkets stock it. I'm a vegetarian so I don't use it myself but it's not that obscure. I don't find many TV chefs are that veggie friendly so I rarely watch cookery programmes. But it's interesting reading about Keith Floyd: I thought his...

    [TV] Carol Vorderman.

    Cheers. I was a bit wary of putting gay weatherman in Google, I wasn't sure what would come up

    [TV] Carol Vorderman.

    I was a bit indifferent to Carol Vorderman until I saw her on Iaith ar Daith, partnered with that camp weatherman who plays the drums. They were a great double act and she came across as someone really engaging. And that was before her second career as an anti-Tory agitator: she's been great...

    [News] Glynis Johns - RIP

    Yes, watching Scrooge at Christmas and seeing Mervyn Johns with Hermione Baddeley as the Cratchits prompted a great potential quiz question about another well-known film. 😀 She had a fantastic voice, instantly recognisable ... and 100 is a great innings.

    [Politics] Sir Keir Starmer’s route to Number 10

    This is absolute bollocks. I was at Bradford in 1980 and there were no weirdo student politicians in the late 70s/early 80s. Conservatives occasionally were elected (in fact, one year, the FCS swept the board and won every single position). And although most politicians were of the left, they...

    [Albion] What’s the worst away day in the 92?

    People keep mentioning Oldham, I've been there twice and not noticed it being especially cold. Now, Fellows Park was cold; I've never been so frozen as watching Walsall fluke a 1-0 win there about 30 years ago

    [Albion] What’s the worst away day in the 92?

    Mrs Gwylan used to work near Hackney Wick and says the same thing. It's an unbelievable change in twenty odd years.

    [Albion] What’s the worst away day in the 92?

    Spot on. The old West Ham ground was probably my favourite away ground. You were really close to the pitch and there was a terrific atmosphere. There was a cracking Indian snack place a short walk away too. Too few grounds like that these days

    [Albion] What’s the worst away day in the 92?

    I actually think that Everton is one of the better away games. A proper stadium and one not in the middle of nowhere. Agree about Palace, wouldn't go again, even if I had a free ticket. Reading is the most miserable ground that I've been to; no atmosphere and an absolute ball-ache to get to

    [Albion] West Ham United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    I thought the opposite re pubs. I was in a couple about 15 minutes walk away that were pretty decent ( and there were a couple more that looked OK too). I thought it was one of the better away grounds in that respect. I agree about the food though; who on earth pays those sorts of prices?
