    [Misc] Jersey Royal potatoes

    Every year, I look forward to the season. Every year I’m disappointed. They just don’t taste the same as they used to. Anyone know where you can buy some that taste like, err, Jersey Royals?

    [Politics] Dominic Cummings v H&SC and S&T select committees *Official Match Thread*

    I’ll hold my hand up to not believing Eagle landed on the moon in 1971. It was 1969. :wink: As for the rest of your post: agreed - you’ve made your views clear on a consistent basis over a period of well over a year.

    [Albion] Latest TV Dick Knight Showdown at The Little Chef

    The only way Potter wins the majority over is if we beat both the clubs around us ('we can't even beat the bottom clubs'), the clubs just above us ('we are better than the bottom clubs, but where is the progress'), and the clubs at the top ('we're going backwards, we've beaten City etc before...

    [Albion] Latest TV Dick Knight Showdown at The Little Chef

    I wholeheartedly agree with the underlying sentiment of your post, but would raise an eyebrow at your comment that ‘everyone’ has moved on. I’m not convinced that’s true. I wish it was, and I also think that if it was the relationship between the club and DK would be less frosty.

    [Albion] Latest TV Dick Knight Showdown at The Little Chef

    Seems very unlikely given the current reciprocal antipathy between Dick and the club hierarchy. His assertion in your interview that the club reneged on the exit deal he had put in place for Mickey Adams after his second spell won’t have done anything to build bridges. My sense is that the...

    [Misc] Luzzing stuff back over your garden fence.

    If I were a miserablist, I'd wait until the said young lad came round to ask for his kit back. Every time something came over. I'd feign deafness if he shouted over the fence ('I can't hear you, please come round to the front door'. Then I 'wouldn't hear' the front doorbell.). The...

    [Albion] Seem Tottenham Fans Seem Interested In Mr Potter

    Betvictor has Potter at 8/1. Not bad odds for an insurance bet.

    [Football] What is the MINIMUM expectation for England / Southgate at the EUROS?

    Anything less than winning it is totally unacceptable. Unacceptable = Southgate goes. That’ll do for me.

    [Football] A vote for Danny Welbeck, May PL goal of the month.

    Cavani’s is clearly the best, so I voted for Welbeck.

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

    Yes, he certainly was. Not for the first time either (nor the fifth). I don’t like it in other teams’ players and positively hate it in ours. Cut it out, Connolly, FFS.

    Another vote of thanks to Giraffe. A go-to thread for me.

    [Albion] Tony’s end of season review

    Two people have reported this post for unnecessary aggression against a poster making a perfectly reasonable post. Yet I observe that the post currently has six :thumbsup: While I’m in the former camp personally, I don’t think that moderation action is called for - save to ask all posters to...

    [Albion] ** Arsenal v BHA ** Predict Potter's Picks - Going out on a high?

    Hugo Rune I’ve been lurking for most of the season, but never got round to posting a prediction. If you decide to run it next season - and I hope you will - I’ll be participating. Could you please tell me what you mean by ‘defensive formation’ - is it simply the formation we adopt without the...

    [Food] Restaurant thread 2021

    Some excellent wines there. It prompted me to spend an hour looking through some past MW papers. I reckon I’d do OK on about 50% of the tasting questions (they list at the end the wines being shown) and about 20% of the theory - I’d be able to provide some response to every question, but I’d...

    Goxwiller is one of only a handful of communes where Klevener is grown. There are a couple of decent growers in the area. Glad enjoyed yourself.

    Love it, and know quite a bit about it, but would not describe it as the grape I know most about.
