    [Misc] Phew! Scorchio!!

    We’re moving house over the next three days. Today was packing and loading some vans. I’ll b getting on the scale later, I reckon I’ve lost a good amount of weight. Not fun.

    [Help] Motoring Fine - Do I have a defence?

    You carefully edited out the bit where I said: ‘ Not all of this post should be taken seriously.’ Can’t imagine why. :thumbsup:

    [Help] Motoring Fine - Do I have a defence?

    A ‘20’ plate - clearly loaded. No chance. Pay up and move on. Not all of this post should be taken seriously. Honestly? Pay up and move on.

    [Help] Employment disciplinary advice.

    In reference to an ex-employee who was habitually late and bone idle when they did turn up, I gave a telephone reference to the prospective employer “you’ll be lucky indeed if they work for you”. Doubt I’d repeat that input now, given the changes in the law over the last couple of decades.

    Fair enough.

    [Help] Employment disciplinary advice.

    That’s certainly an alternative view. Pretty unpleasant way to behave, imo. He does something that’s been described by the OP as definitely worthy of gross misconduct (for which offence others have previously been fired), gets off on a technicality (though the employer knows they committed the...

    [Help] Employment disciplinary advice.

    Probably wise for him to resign. The company know that he did it, and there’ll always be concerns about how many more times he has. They’ll also know that the story will leak (internally) and they’ll be worried about the message that him continuing to work there sends to other employees. They’ll...

    [Albion] Ben White buys house in Worthing

    Could you take a small diversion? Say by the kitchen or living room windows - to see who’s inside. Better still, take a ladder with you and have a look through a bedroom window.* *for the avoidance of doubt, and to assuage some of our more,err, challenged posters’ concerns: 1. Yes, this...

    [Albion] Jan Paul van Hecke

    Perhaps Potter’s going for 8-0-2 next season?

    [Albion] Knockaert joins Fulham on initial one-year loan

    I think AK was magical for us in our promotion season. His ability to jinx past defenders was sensational, and he scored some belters. Like everyone, he has some flaws: the three I’d highlight are the fact that he didn’t really modify his playing style when it became obvious that PL defenders...

    [Albion] Deluded Leeds (an EFL club) fans

    Remind me, who is the current Hartlepool(s) manager? I skipped over the Albion as I can’t see Potter taking that particular job.

    [Humour] Odd - but try doing this.... (bit of fun)

    I CBA to do it myself. So I got my partner to do it. Her foot continued going clockwise. Further proof, if any were needed, that she’s a bit odd.

    [Albion] How Many Albion Games Have You Seen?

    I don't know. Somewhere between 400 - 600, I'd guess. What I do know though is that I age at about 50 times the normal rate when watching a game. I reckon I must be at least 145 years' old by now.

    [Misc] Any structural engineers on here?

    Hmm. That's a thought. Initially, I'm after advice about what I should do before engaging the relevant contractor(s) to do whatever the best thing is. I'm certainly more interested in getting pragmatic advice from a seasoned person than a paper-based report from a panic-monkey. OK - let's...

    [Misc] Any structural engineers on here?

    Looking for a structural engineer to take a look at a couple of properties - one in Sarf London, the other near Watford. Both listed buildings, so experience of that essential. Any takers/recommendations? TVM

    [Albion] What Albion signing got you most excited?

    Overall: Tony Bloom. Him becoming Chairman was a clear signal of intent. Player: Vicente
