    Nice shot. I get a slightly different calculation for the time it’s taken for the light to get here from it: just under 6 minutes. It’s 103m km away; C = 299.792m ms-1

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

    The counter argument being that other teams in the same situation are on the beach, eg PaLLLLLace. The manager deserves credit for keeping their players on their toes.

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

    Was great (in hindsight) to see Muzza start; and what a run (well, jog) into space for the assist. Yep, the Saints defence for that was woeful, but you can only beat what you’re facing, and he did. Thanks, Glenn - a major contribution to a vital point. ‘Twas ever thus.

    Well, neither Glasgow nor Italy have Donatello. Easy decision.

    [Albion] Maty Ryan - analysis & discussion

    He may make (have made?) one or even two saves as good as that in his career, but he’ll never make a better one. An astonishing save from a brilliant shot.

    [Albion] 4th season in the premiership but what do you think will best describe it?

    4... lower mid-table mediocrity (hopefully)

    They think it’s all over...it is now.

    [Music] Bands/artists with a long-ish career: name a brilliant final/recent album and a honker.

    Sgt Pepper’s Yellow submarine Am no longer sure which rules (if any) I’m following, but they’re my contribution.

    As proven tonight... we looked a totally different team in the second half. :wink:

    [Politics] Southampton Football Clubs most famous supporter...

    As always, I have no idea who she is, which means we'll win, just like we always do... oh, wait. Still, win or lose, there's always bikinis. Which is nice.

    [Football] "Graham Potter’s side remain a gloriously flawed machine": The Observer 12 July

    Another thought-provoking post. Yep, I can well see that that assessment may be correct - it would certainly chime in nicely with other aspects of TBs approach; it's all about the long-term. It follows logically that we will continue to see younger and younger Albion squads (though there is of...

    [Football] "Graham Potter’s side remain a gloriously flawed machine": The Observer 12 July

    Yes, indeed - and an interesting observation. I wonder if that number is greater or less than the number who'd feel demotivated by a 0-5 (coulda/shoulda been 0-7, 0-8) drubbing, and would welcome some sense of pragmatism when playing teams stuffed with the World's elite?

    We are actually! To a place with two cellars - one originally built as a wine cellar, replete with a tiny stream running down a gully in the centre - a 3-week test showed perfect temperature and humidity. I might, just might be able to consolidate the stock from various pubs scattered around...

    [Politics] Trump makes the main board but Johnson doesn't.

    Forget the bear pit; I thought the MO was that the only CV-19 stuff supposed to be on the BB is ‘good news’ stories, with the rest being in the CV-19 sub-forum. ‘65k excess deaths’ is a bit of a stretch to call ‘good news’, imo ofc.

    There are indeed some excellent sekts (typically they’ll be winzersekts), but often made from varietals not used in Champagne (Riesling & Pinot Blanc for example) - I’m fond of Reichsrat von Buhl’s house style particularly. Like most wines though, the good ones have to be searched for; in the...

    I like this. They all currently play for the Albion apart from two of them.

    Back alleys, rats, no champagne, sour wine, young waitresses, hipster sommelier (did he have a man bag, perchance?) - yes, it sounds right up your street. :smile: Food sounds great though - and when push comes to shove, that’s the most important thing. Glad you had a good time, HT.
