    [Albion] DFS and The Goldstone Retail Park

    Arguing that selling the Goldstone got us to where we are now feels a bit like saying a long head-first fall out of a 16th floor window got you a nice afternoon in the garden

    [Travel] Travel Tips: Aurora Borealis

    If you go to Rovaniemi, hire a car and drive around at night. If you spot the lights you can pull over and watch it from the forests. Lordi's Bar is probably just about worth seeing as well.

    [News] RIP Hugh McIlvanney

    Gutted. I owe a lot of my rather pathetic "career" to him. Still, at least I can continue to read his work with a mix of admiration and impotent fury at being a 100th of the man/writer.

    [Albion] Press coverage/"Big 6" bias - new low?

    On a sort of similar note...wanted to know the Bolton-West Brom score tonight. I get that it's not the CL final but it was the only league game in England, WBA going for promotion, both former Prem, only a division below The Greatest Competition in the World etc etc. I counted three tennis...

    Anyone see the runner shouting throughout Hove Park today? Was a bit confused

    [Albion] Fulham tickets

    How many times can you involuntarily think/say "the game's gone" before you officially become a broken record grump?

    [Albion] **January Transfer Window 2019**

    He's out of contract this summer and Rov are offering him three years on a hefty paycut. He's probably waiting to see if anyone who can pay more comes in.

    [Misc] The new Gillette ad

    The agency put out a couple of broad quotes about the ad campaign. Gillette haven't issued a defence. It's probably safe to assume they've achieved impact, but it's unlikely any business would pull a campaign of this scale unless it was demonstrably causing significant ongoing damage.

    [Politics] Brexit

    The data suggests that low-skilled immigrants are not a drain on public finances. They are also vital to several industries other than agriculture.

    [Politics] Brexit

    Have you got any evidence of those that would help to make an informed decision more effectively than the current long-term evidence-based reports?

    No input at all? "Exclusive competence"?

    [Politics] Brexit

    Can we start with the first question? The government's long-term economic analysis report from November is a good starting point. Have you seen any evidence that the country will be better off?

    [Politics] Brexit

    Is this based on evidence? Is it not at the moment? Do you think we hold our politicians to account? Did you vote in the European elections? What have they considered carefully? The strongest available evidence?

    [Football] League Two,who's going down ?

    I still think they will. They are in freefall and had something like one win in ten before Saturday's result, which seemed like an anomaly. They have a lot of players out of contact and Macc are in good form.

    He had binoculars, pliers and a change of clothes on him, but I'm sure it's all perfectly legit

    [Politics] What's this 26-30 railcard business?!

    It was a bribe by the Tories in the aftermath of the voter demographics for the last general election.
