    [Other Sport] What was your father's profession?

    My Dad was a timber merchant and then joiner, but I ticked carpenter as it involves working with wood. Any chippys out there will understand the differences (carpenters work on site, joiners work inside a fixed workshop) which is quite important to them.

    [Misc] What is the greatest purchase you've EVER made

    Oh yes, but I have always been very disappointed with them. AA and AAA rechargeables are very expensive and have a habit of running out of charge with little notice, especially annoying with things like bike lights where traditional batteries start to go dim and then give you enough light to...

    [Misc] What is the greatest purchase you've EVER made

    Battery tester. £5 from Maplins years ago. The number of batteries I've saved by identifying the dud one in a batch of 4 is amazing. Also allows me to check new ones have plenty of charge before fitting. Amazing piece of kit...

    [Albion] Empty seats

    See thread 'Anyone actually going on Sunday?' Loads of good explanations why people couldn't go, including resceduling from Saturday. I put my seat on the exchange but it didn't sell. Not surprising given our recent woeful form and lack of goals. I'm so pleased we won, and sad to have missed...

    [Albion] Anyone actually going on Sunday?

    I wont be attending as I have a can't miss family party for my grandson's first birthday. In other seasons I'd have made excuses and been at the Amex. But this season it's not worth the grief I'd endure for putting Albion before family..
