Everything Tempur is glorious, even their sleep masks. Pricey though.

Not sure about this year but certainly last year it went to Albion+ Members as my neighbour got a ticket and he's a member. Most away games outside London and Bournemouth go to Members.

It was quiet at the game, yes. When a chant did arise it was quite dispersed as though the committed singers were all over the place and couldn’t crank up the momentum to draw in the occasional singers. Other possible explanations — with the train problems perhaps an unusually high proportion...

I’ve not tried any no- or low-alcohol beers and don’t feel any desire to do so. If you’ve managed to get rid of the enthusiasm for beer it seems risky to drink anything that resembles its taste. Mind you, the selection of non-alcoholic drinks in pubs and restaurants is absolutely shocking. So...

I did Dry January this year and have just kept going. It’s now 91 days without booze and the way I’m feeling, could quite happily not bother with it ever again. To put this in context, I was drinking far too much, and had been for years. I was drinking the recommended weekly units every day...

I was usually less productive at home (now retired). The exception was when I had a strict deadline to meet for written work. Then I’d be up early to get going and work through to mid, sometimes late, evening. But if I was in a 'ticking over' phase I’d kid myself, and my colleagues, I was...

Wordle 1,014 4/6* 🟩🟨⬜⬜🟨 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Annoying. I was certain on 2 and 3 that I’d got it.

The Yes, but it was originally it's. Now corrected with an edit — which is fair play to the OP.

And its rather than it's in the first sentence. Sorry, but with that thread title it was irresistible.

What would football fans do without these questions prefaced by a long string of IFs? Reminds me of my programming days and constructing endless nested conditional statements. This example is a classic as it’s not even our (the fans’) decision to make in any case. You'd have to add another IF...

Ultra-Processed People, recommended by someone on NSC a few days ago. It's interesting, if a bit sciencey for me.

Both Wales and Poland would be also-rans. On that basis we might as well restrict the Euros to 8 finalists. In fact I’d prefer that with every game meaning something. Without a Bale and Ramsey, Wales aren’t much good — that’s the reality. I wouldn’t have minded them qualifying if they weren’t so...

I'm going to the game but have little hope of coming away with anything.

You feel sorry for Dunk on a personal level but from a Brighton perspective I'd prefer he had the summer off to recuperate properly after a tough season. Apart from a nice warm feeling inside, we've nothing really to gain from him going to Germany. It's not like he's a kid who could...

Oh for heaven's sake. Those closest to your football ground or your city, region or country will often be your closest rivals. That said, I will normally always support the home countries at tournaments, especially Scotland and both Irelands. But ever since that notorious video of Bale and Co...
