Although 'cancel culture' is - like the other lazy trope 'political correctness gone mad' - being used as a stick to attack the Left, the Right too have traditionally tried to silence people they disagree with. Mary Whitehouse was always going to the High Court to get TV programmes banned (even...

Brilliant news - one of the best TV series ever. It's Paris...but not as tourists know it!

1-3

If there was a poll, I'd go for 1-3 again (having picked up only my 2nd point of the season on Wednesday :))!

There was a piece about him in yesterday's Observer - basically saying the guy has never lived-up to his potential and early expectations. https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2020/jun/27/jesse-lingard-flashes-powers-faded-manchester-united-norwich

Nah, spent the night down the Hungry Years (seafront nightclub which played hard rock music) dressed as bikers, and then got the train home, carrying their crash helmets with them :)

On more than one occasion in the distant past, I've walked behind some 'bikers', from the Hungry Years up to Brighton Station in the early hours - they were wearing the right gear and carrying their crash helmets - and then got on a train home. Poseurs :lolol:

In terms of bands, rather than individual artists, I'd definitely say that four of my favourites from the 1980s have actually released some of their best albums in the last decade: Killing Joke, Wire, Half Man Half Biscuit, and Blancmange. Oh, and Black Sabbath's final studio album, 13, was up...

Cygnet Committee has always been one of my fave Bowie tracks, an absolute beast of a song, yet because it was pre-Ziggy, it has always been overlooked.

A scrappy 1-1 - but another valuable point towards survival. If we can stay up, I reckon we'll do much better next season with the new/younger players becoming established.

Must be Izal :)

As I predicted a 3-0 win to Leicester, I'm delighted with a point - that's 4 points against Arsenal and Leicester; let's be grateful, not greedy. Another point towards safety - now 6 points clear, and with a superior goal difference. OK, so we'll probably get spanked against Man City and...

We need a third option: "Too many stupid people" :)

3-1 to Leicester, but we'll bounce back and draw against Man U next week :)

House booked in Brighton's North Laine for 10 days in September (was originally booked for next week, but we had to put it back a couple of months). Also got tickets to see Sparks in Amsterdam in October, and am scheduled for a work-related trip to Lyon in November.

Segues into the brilliant 'The Trees'

Really enjoying this final series - but why do all the blokes talk in that deep, gravelly, mumbling, almost-whispering, style? Notice a few previous posters referring to The Bridge - might be interested to know that there is a similar British-French equivalent called The Tunnel (about serious...
