    [Food] Perfect Roast Chicken

    ...is the right answer. I always take a serrated knife to a chicken, cutting a strip out (with horrible sounds of splitting bones) about an inch wide that includes the backbone (NOT the breastbone) the length of the bird. Then use a sharp knife to prise out the ribs you've exposed like John Hurt...

    [Sussex] Seaford Beach Shingle Work

    Seaford's problem probably started back in the nineteenth century when the Newhaven harbour arm was built. That prevented the natural longshore drift from refreshing Seaford pebbles from the west. So the beach level fell, putting the pebble bank at risk. Successive sea-walls were built to...

    [Help] Has anybody ever left a house or flat unoccupied for a year or more?

    And after two years empty you pay a premium (100% in Brighton) on top of normal council tax, to encourage houses to be used (seems a reasonable ambition).

    [Misc] GDPR Question

    ... and they must have a good, stated reason to keep it (under GDPR). If they've used it to check ID, then I see no reason why they should keep the originals. If they're arguing that it'll save time next time you apply through them, then it's a specious argument under GDPR, and would not be allowed.

    [Politics] Poll - are our (your) taxes better spent on...

    I think people are being a bit harsh on the OP for raising a perfectly respectable moral dilemma. I'd rather criticise some of the replies which don't attempt to answer it but just slag-off the government (but I'll forgive Hotchilidog due to cricket-blues). I'll just chicken-out and consider...

    [Misc] GDPR Question

    I hate to disagree with people but I think GDPR does have a lot to say about this situation. GDPR is about safe storage but an awful lot more besides. Firstly, they must say in a data privacy policy what they'll do with this information. They have to have a good reason to keep it and a policy to...

    In fact, looking at the meme, maybe he should get out now.

    [Albion] Mister Bobby Sanchez

    A friend of mine says he looks as though he goes to foreign-language films.

    EU and AstraZeneca

    Because it doesn't appeal to their core vote, the government doesn't publicise too much what it does to help prevent vaccine poverty. The UK alone has contributed £500M to COVAX which is the organisation set-up by WHO, CEPI and GAVI to support the building of manufacturing capabilities, and...

    EU and AstraZeneca

    EU attitude to the island of Ireland: 1. In 1998 when Blair was putting peace together, they just weren't to be seen. I remember Clinton getting heavily, helpfully involved but don't remember much of Jacques Santer (head of the EU commission) doing anything 2. Suddenly, during Brexit...

    [Humour] Recreate the Match-day Experience Whilst Watching the Game on Telly!

    After we’ve lost, and after standing outside in the rain for 30 minutes, get in your car in the garage as if on the train “on the way to Lewes”. Talk to the dog (wearing funny coloured scarf) about how well “they” played. Lose the will to be horrible to them because they’re quite nice really...

    [Humour] Recreate the Match-day Experience Whilst Watching the Game on Telly!

    It’s 123 stairs. And I have to count them every time. If I get the number wrong I know we’ll lose. I’m not very good at counting.

    [Albion] The Arsenal Golden Ticket Thread

    [Albion] The Arsenal Golden Ticket Thread

    I'm in pool 2 and have just managed to get the same seat for Arsenal as I had for Southampton (pool 2 again). Don't forget, the "refresh" key is your greatest friend to find out the latest seat situation.

    [Albion] Match experience last night?

    It was a very civilised stroll to the station and wander down the ramps for the Eastbound trains. Stewards were offering counselling on the way.....

    [Albion] Match experience last night?

    When Vestergaard stole a ball from an unsuspecting Brighton player in the first half someone near me shouted questioning how anyone could not see someone that big approaching. That was one thing that was different with the experience last night: the players and officials must have heard the...

    [Albion] Match experience last night?

    Yes, I'm normally a beer drinker and transitioned to Bovril last night. Well, that's what it was called, but in reality it was hot brown water with a lump of undissolved salt at the bottom. After I queued for five minutes and bought my drink I was approached by someone who wanted to give me £3...
