Some members of staff saying the female security guard involved is gay herself. Wouldn't be a huge surprise if so (security guard being a stereotypically butch/tomboy type job for a woman) but rather changes the complexion of the incident. Actually makes it worse. Possibly jealousy involved -...

I seem to be the only person in Brighton to have noticed this as they're always fully stocked. It's the booze bargain of the year imho. The bright pink cans with a cartoon of a large breasted lady on the front might be putting some off, but I'm getting through twenty cans a day of this shit...

Yes. It's the centre pages of today's Argus. He's now friends with several relatives of those who died in the bombing, and it's them who insisted on relocating it from London to Brighton. Surprised local neo-Nazis haven't picked up on it yet and organised a demo outside for simple minded grief...

There are innocent casualties in all 'wars'. Legitimate acts of war (as the Grand bomb was, within the IRA's own frame of reference) will have 'civilian' victims. I just think seeing everything in black and white does everyone a disservice. Targetting shopping areas - particularly working class...

Oh ffs, I never said that you silly billy. Feel free to continue ignoring 90% of my post and extrapolating the remaining 10% to whatever extent it requires to fuel your righteous ire. You either have comprehesion issues (in which case I'm happy to explain my point further in simpler terms) or...

Don't know if everyone's been following the Sally Morgan controversy in the press in the past few days. Her husband and another relative have been threatening to beat/kill a guy who's been leafleting her shows (he leaflets other psychics' shows too and has never been threatened there). Lots of...

Do you only read the bits of people's posts that you want to. I mentioned the Warrington bomb as a disgusting act of terrorism. The IRA committed a lot of terrorist acts. I condemn terrorist acts wholeheartedly. The Brighton bomb was not, by my definition of the word, a 'terrorist' act as it...

Terrorism is such a pejorative term. Within the framework of the war the IRA were fighting, the Grand during the governing party's conference is about as legitimate a target as you can probably get, topped only by that time they fired a bazooka at a cabinet meeting in Westminster. Yes, the IRA...

I was at that game too. Lot of Saudi fans in the beer halls the next day. Decent bunch. The ones I spoke to lived in Germany/Europe (either Europeans of Saudi descent, students or kids of Europe-based Saudi businessmen). Nowt wrong with that. It would be naive to think that people who support a...

Have heard similar just now via Facebook. Also it seems my package wasn't sent recorded after all so it might end up sat in the sorting office for ages - the recorded/tracked stuff takes priority when understaffed, and normal parcels just have to wait, boo :(

I meant chase it up with the sender (rather than the Post Office) initially - the item was listed as being sent first class recorded, but I haven't been given a tracking number, so that would be first chase. I rather suspect it's sat in North Road sorting office somewhere, with the 'while you...

It must be almost ten years since I last received a package via regular Royal Mail post - everyone seems to use couriers these days - and I'm waiting on a package that was posted to me First Class on Saturday. I appreciate it's probably gone astray as I should have had it by now, but I'm going...

Only ever been to the Triangle once (to watch Dennis Rodman in Brighton v Guildford basketball), but go to the Dolphin quite regularly to watch roller derby. I had a bad feeling about the changeover, especially I when I twigged DC Leisure had rebranded as the wanky People for Places. Closing...

Definitely not Ella's sandwich shop in Queens Road - the morons put suitable for vegetarian (v)s on menu items such as tuna melts. I could understand places thinking veggies ate fish twenty odd years ago when I first moved to Brighton (Waves on the seafront being the biggest culprits) but to be...

That Parmigiani watch looks pretty shit, to be fair. That's the official watch of the Brazilian FA. The official watch of the Brazil World Cup, meanwhile, was by Hublot and was much nicer, albeit more expenive (c £25k rather than £16k).

Those were unsorted votes, that just happened to be stored on a table with a 'No' sign on it. The official Dundee Yes campaign confirmed that on Twitter shortly after that footage was broadcast on Thursday night. People will still be sharing the footage and ridiculous conspiracy theories about...

This was posted on the internet yesterday, and sums up most of this evening's threads in one go...

The Jesus And Mary Chain – Upside Down Oasis – Supersonic Huggy Bear – Her Jazz The Libertines – What A Waster The Indelicates – We Hate The Kids Hmm, thinking about it there's probably less bands whose first single WASN'T their best.

He's got a church in Lewes, which his son preaches at fairly regularly. There are only half a dozen or so of their churches in the UK - one wonders if it was all the "No Popery" signs hanging up on Nov 5th that attracted them to Lewes?

Should be an interesting match-up of two squads much changed from last season. Charlton only really have one striker who can be relied on for goals (the fast reacting Vetokele), Jackson is a little off the pace in centre mid, and we don't have a commanding goalkeeper. Annoyingly, all three of...
