    [Misc] If you have the money/opportunity, would you be a "space tourist"?

    Watched it already; position unchanged. 1 in 270 chance of a catastrophic failure? Pah; I’d go if it was 50/50. I’m going to die anyway at some point in the not too distant future; I can think of no way I’d rather go than experiencing space travel.

    [Misc] Most important people, concepts and events in English history?

    If I were Swansman I'd also bone up on the Anglo-Swedish war (1810-1812) in which the only bloodshed was when a Swedish Major-General led an action against Swedish farmers rebelling against the conscription laws and killed 30 of them. There can't be many entire wars where the total casualty...

    [Misc] Most important people, concepts and events in English history?

    If one of the subjects last year was ‘Education in the Middle Ages’, to which the answer is ‘issit’, then this year’s exam could contain anything. The only trend I can see is that there are two questions on monarchs; look up John (Magna Carta is guaranteed this year), Richard I and III, Henry...

    [Misc] Strange And Obvious Things You Should Know But Only Found Out Late..

    Bloody hell; I didn’t know that. Will save me some irritation in future. For something that I now know should have been a 50/50 shot, I have historically got far more than my fair share of useless instruction leaflets…

    [Albion] Brentford vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    No photo, I’m afraid, but I can confirm he was still going batshit mental when I checked on him after first having done the initial celebrations with my friends on both my right and left. It’s fair to say he was chuffed. To my surprise, he raised a small smile the first time “50 million in the...

    [Albion] Positives from Today

    A Bees fan bought 6 of us a drink after the game. Table service only. The waiter asked “what can I get you?”; he replied “3 points?”. In unison, we all said “we’ve got those…”. Made me smile anyway.
